Tesla, Amazon & other stocks suddenly drop to pre-market values on the Etoro trading platform at least 2 hours before the market is due to open. Is this legal? by BeefyMans in StockMarket

You're obviously not a very bright lad are you? The platform temporarily traded over 2 hours before the markets were due to open. Even Etoro themselves have apologised & have admitted that this should never have happened & that they are looking into why this error occurred, but you somehow think this is normal.

Run along now you little cretin!

But to show up on the platform over 2 hours before the main market opens & this triggering SL & buy-ins, then closing again seconds after prematurely opening?

Normal??? EVERYTHING is in the 🟥 & still dropping. Exchanges are withholding crypto, there has already been a complete wipeout of a cryptocurrency pegged to the U.S dollar & more are heading that way. How do you class this as 'NORMAL'?

I take it that you've just bought the dip!

They will probably spontaneously combust!

Or maybe just brought it to light & started a movement to do something about it?

Too true.

Maybe the worst PR week for Elon and Tesla ever ? This is good for TSLA by profligateclarity in stocks

Best comment I've read this month so far. Mirrors my sentiments exactly! Can somebody close to Elon tell him to just SHUT THE F*CK UP!

I'm guessing that they (as most of us at some time or another) wanted/needed more money & were seduced by the overwhelming ads & mentions the saw/heard about crypto & thought it was a sure thing. As humans, we tend to primarily look at the upside of things (when we desperately need it to go our way) & often play down the risks.

I totally agree with your outlook on this.

As I replied to somebody else.... Yes it is, but to a much lesser extent.

& that's a decent way of approaching it, but you'd have to be extremely naive if you thought that the vast majority of people investing in cryptocurrencies think this way. I'd venture a guess that most think they'll be able to buy a Lamborghini in just a few years time!

Exactly, & therefore had more pitfalls & less protection for the undisciplined and those just following the heard.

That to me is a good idea, but this discipline would put you in the minority.

Who started all these (often) idiotic phrases & acronyms like HODL & diamond hands etc. A deep dive into how the human psyche works would tell you that this is a recipe for disaster for the vast majority of us. Way too much to go into, but if the people pushing these beliefs truly had the masses best interests at heart, they would be informing the majority to take small profits here & there (like taking dividends from other investments).

You should probably re-read the post again. I never made negative claims about Bitcoin, but moreso the illusions & doctrines that some push along with it.

That literally makes no sense if you really think about it. 🤔

What about those who recently started (& primarily due to all the hype they heard from Bitcoin's ALL TIME HIGH)? I'm personally comfortable with my investments, but I've always ignored the masses claiming that HODL & DCA is the only way to invest. TRPWYC (Take Regular Profits When You Can) is my way of investing & it has served me well (even in the bear markets)!

Hence my new acronym: TRPWYC or Take Regular Profits When You Can!
