I'm not sure I want to make that mistake again. I will say at one point it did make me an extra $900 over night and I just held on to it like an idiot.

Hold your horses: let the stocks sit

Only the truly skilled, and truly lucky, can consistently predict the rise and fall of stock markets.

Right now, shorting the SP or Nasdaq would be a good idea, but since you are already invested and at a loss, just try to wait it out.

Buy and hold, see what happens, maybe you will get that lucky 10.000% increase on your penny stock

Or maybe not. The stock market is half gambling after all.

>how many shares should i buy? how long should i hold on to it?

Minimum $1k+ worth. Otherwise trading fees gobble up a hefty amount.

Hold for ever.

I can buy like 9 shares would that really gain me much? I'm genuinely asking because I don't know.

>>1054802
Yes 9 is ok.

You just don't want to be buying under $1k at a time because if your broker's fees are $10/trade then you're spending over 1% to buy it right off the bat... Not really recommended. 1% is tolerable though.

It won't gain you "a lot". This is what's known as "long-term investing". Over the course of years it will earn you an average of 7-8% per year.

Well, here's to hoping I don't regret it. Thank you for your (hopefully valuable) input. And I guess it is kind of gambling anyways.

>>1054800
Use Robin Hood.
No fees.

>>1054809
No it is not gambling.

I suggest you do some more research on long-term investing.

And don't look at the day to day changes, look at how much you're making in 3, 5, 10 years with this type of strategy.
