what am I looking at?
He got in at 12.40, and the price started creeping up. Pretty much hit the optimal time to buy for the day.

What software is that again, dodint? I swear you've already told me once before.

It's the chart tab on StreetSmart Edge, Schwab's stand-alone platform. It's free. Was designed in 2010 (and is updated regularly) and you can tell, but it's pretty robust for what it is.

Ah, that's pretty cool for free. I wish VG had anything like that.

Does anyone know of any free sources for raw stock data?

Building an analytics product at the moment. It has some cool algorithms that find insights from unstructured raw data. Would like to play.

Do you have an account anywhere specific? TD/ToS and Schwab have developer APIs that give you access to real time raw data. I believe Interactive Brokers and Fidelity do as well. Not sure about anyone else. Other than that, Barchart gets mentioned a lot in the Reddit world.

It'll recover, but it looks like my gamble with the F earnings call isn't going to pan out. Down 4% in the first 3 minutes. I really had no idea how it would go so I'm not even sure what to take away from this.

It'll be fine. The stock didn't really even move much today so it's not like I passed on a solid exit to do this. It was a coin flip and didn't work out. They beat their earnings forecast and posted other positive numbers and it did this anyway, I don't understand it at all really. It's not unique to F, TSLA did the same thing earlier in the week. Need to work on it.

The trend with TSLA is that when there’s a whiff of the earnings, it goes up and when the actual earnings are announced, it goes down.

Exactly. His following is so big that everything is virtually a pump and dump.

That stuff caused blips sometimes but TSLA generally moves in mysterious ways based on the whims of big money movers - not the fanboys. They don’t make up the lions share of the market cap.

I would if I could. This is silly. The best comment I've seen on Stocktwits was: "$F I must have missed the bankruptcy filing in the earnings release. Jesus"

I won't lose anything on this, except opportunity cost.

Well. Here's the thing. I'm not saying it's coming back.

What I'm saying is I expect to be able to unload it at what I paid for it ($12.40) in less than two weeks. You can infer a 9.2% return from that, but it's not based on anything tangible. I also didn't see a 10% collapse on a positive earnings call. I figured it would swing 3% one way or the other, not this.

Hey, remember when dodint was so proud of his $12.40 entry? :slug:
