I'm looking to park about $25,000 (which I can afford to lose) in stocks. I'm not looking to do day trading because of the risks.
I've heard of bots tat buy/sell stocks based on what's on the news.
For example, British Airways lost 8% of their value overnight as the news about the IT meltdown came about. Even though the value regained the next day, it was still a great opportunity to make a quick trade and exit. These type of major events are quite rare and I'm okay with doing only a couple of trades a year and slowly increase profits over time.
I'm really curious about how much of a delay there is between such a breaking news event and when the stock price starts falling, so the plan is to mark the charts with these news events to see if there is any room for predicting the price drops quickly enough.
The events I'm interested in specifically targeting are Hurricanes, Terrorist Attacks, Bankruptcies, Fraud charges against a CEO, Tsunamis, Earth Quakes, Acquisition rumors, Large hacks (like Yahoo, PS network, Target) etc.
Anyone here doing anything like this?

It's a shame I really liked the /ASX/ threads
I like your attitude though, keep up with the idea

Invest in AMD, they are sky rocketing because of their recent announcements and successful technology thats coming out. they are becoming extremely competitive.
Sounds like a bit of a gamble.
