Good job, but how come you have basically a flat graph with two giant leaps in them? Seems a bit odd.

I invested my money in big chunks and was really cautious for a long time

That's why it's kind of weird (says 19.29% return but only $1940 gained)

>>1668201
Well it's good that you've started investing, and if I may recommend something it would be that you, in the future, invest monthly.

The specific method of investment doesn't matter, investing monthly (or dollar-cost averaging, in finance jargon) is generally a good method to eliminate some risk.

For example, if you invested one of those big chunks before a large drop in stock price, you'd probably feel pretty bad, especially if you're new to investing, and might pull out, which would be even worse.

It's difficult to get past the initial rough period(s). There's "info" on how it conceptually works, and you can know exactly how it works, but it's not as easy as just doing it because in reality nobody is holding your hand.

I'm sure a lot of /biz/raelis could become millionaires if they had an actual teacher, but self-help is difficult when pages you find about it amounts to "I dunno, buy low sell high, or short high bruh its easy get into it lol faggit". Even the "serious" sites aren't going to show you enough to get started and actually become successful. It takes a while of struggling before you can really become successful, and this is where the ridiculous numbers come from when they discuss new people in the market (I forgot, but they always quote some number, "90% of people who try fail!") - it's easy to learn but hard to master.

Personally, I made 25+25% over two weeks on my first real money account, then lost ~50% because I was an idiot and thought I should follow the "advice" to put a stoploss over night. Well, I would've made my target and more, it just up, touched just above where I had put the stoploss, and dropped way down. My mistake was an initial bad entry (trading just to trade), and using a stoploss when I had devised a method that wouldn't need it. After that, I gained some back trying that method (hedging the pair with itself until it moves in my direction, basically), just to see if it actually worked. After that, I stopped trading, despite only eating into a bit of my original balance and actually having succeeded except for the one big mistake.

I traded EURUSD AND GBPJPY, both of those were positive overall. The loss was on a pair I only traded a total of two or three times. I know I'm good enough at it to trade it, I have a decent (shitty in implementation, but good in function) platform and broker, so what am I waiting for? No idea.

TL;DR I don't fucking know. Lack of motivation?

i trade forex too. if i were to blindly follow my system it would work. but sometimes i need to make subjective adjustments based on volatility. and then i don't get fucked but i basically chop my gains in half or worse.

>so what am I waiting for? No idea.
the problem is account size. if i were to have double my capital right now, i could easily trade without worry. but sometimes i cut close to margin based on expected volatility. note i've never actually been margin called. it's just you need to calculate and account for that possibility.

the most important thing is that you have a provable system and a high win percentage. that will give you confidence moving forward. i've actually only had 1 losing trade over the last 6 months.

I bought 1 share of Berkshire Hathaway for $125,000 two years ago. Now I could sell it for $ 250,000.That's 100 % in just two years.

>From a really rich guy
Well, that changes things.
You should be allowed to torture him to death if he's that rich.

If you got really rich robbing a rich person would you be okay with somebody else robbing you after you became rich?

Carfax has secret sensors in every single car that knows when you back into a telephone pole or above your shopping cart in it.

Jesus Christ you have to be retarded to not figure this out on your own.

any accident reported to insurance.
some accidents where there is a police report, but not all.

>>1668082
This. Almost all new cars come with them.

Pretty good, but the SEC is even better at spotting P&D's.

Thanks, but could you elaborate more about looking at the chart and determining if the moon mission is over or not yet begun?

Shitty trading discipline but good advice for the gamblers I guess

freelance work
lemonade stand

Any business for that price won't be a real business it will self employment. Nothing wrong with that. Find a service you're good at and could eventually outsource to an employee.

People are degenerate and poor because they browse 4chan, play video games, and fap to cartoons all day.

So you're a neet

Try moving out of the basement and watch how hard it gets with your rent, car payment, car insurance, health insurance, utilities, and food.

Lol, I'm not posting my page. Why would I lie about this? I just want to learn how I could possibly make money out of it

>>1667824
sell out and start marketing supplements, travel agencies, clothing, etc.

what were you even expecting from here

>>1667808
Either way you are fucked. They will cut you out after a month especially since you jumped over an established agency.

>>1667875
Thought so to. That's why included in the conditions that i get a protection for the cancellation of my contract for at least 6 months.

6 months is more than enough to prove to be a valuable asset. All of them are fuckups and I would be their best man. Got a database of several hundred of potential clients for them. I know their needs, the quality they request, the transport logistics and most importantly their prices.

>>1667882
let me get this straight, you were working independently before or you stole this info from the some other company? Clarify this part, might be some wiggle room then

Can agree that it's like printing money. Sitting on 2.8m right now.

Nobody cares about your tiny gains from huge volatility, and nobody wants to get fucked in your P&D schemes.

i will gladly tell you, for a generous fee.

Probably not, stocks are going crazy. We might see a dip though.

stocks are going up until January. Then watch for the 15% dip.

It's a polite way of saying it sucks and they don't want to risk any money with you.

This is the standard polite way of saying "meh, not interested". I pretty much write the same thing to unsolicited job applications.

>>1667556
I don't buy it because why would he write that much? He also said it is intriguing, so he would do it if he weren't so busy right? Should I message him again in six months? This guy is a billionaire that I managed to find his contact info.
