[quote=nhan1st]Point taken, then why are people so quick to discredit something so normal?[/quote]

idk it's basil what do you expect.

[quote=Ness]No, I'm pointing out how flawed the "if I wasn't lying about this, why would I be lying about this?" logic is.

I don't care if you play stocks or not.[/quote]

[quote=nhan1st]Why do I need to prove you wrong? If you're making money that's good for you. I'm not your mom who tells you how to spend your money. Another person making money is less stress on our government.[/quote]

[quote=nhan1st]Please, if I didn't make up getting an LGR, why would I make up a story about investing in stocks.[/quote]

I can blow under $200 in spins, get a nice item, and say I do well in anything to justify my monetary wastes.

I'm actually a wealthy businessman who blows money on MTG.

Prove me wrong.

@BankaiSensei: OMG, I'm not making bs up and not you're resorting to insulting my investment choices. kek.

@megaman2290: Please, if I didn't make up getting an LGR, why would I make up a story about investing in stocks. Just because you don't do it doesn't mean other people can't.

[quote=nhan1st]How about you do some research before calling other people stories bs. I'm using TD waterhouse online stock broker and the rate is 9.99 CAD per trade, which works out to $20 with a buy and sell. I've invested in the TMX and specialize in maple foods (MFI), Dolarama (DOL), and Icatha energy (IAE). In this past week IAE stocks were at a 1.13 low and today is a 1.26 high which is higher than 10% fluctuation and I profited from buying that stocks at 1.20 on wednesday. With 10k, $20 is only 0.2% profit to break even, so keep your trash in your anus before calling other people's story bullcrap.[/quote]

Lol omg penny stocks.

I mean, if listing a bunch of ipo's makes you feel like you know what you're doing, by all means, have at it.

Btw your margins are sh#t

@Lecarde: yea i understand that concept. but where do I start to buy stocks? ;o

"the stock shares I invested in..."

And then spending all profits into NX. Yea okay.

this thread took a turn

[quote=BankaiSensei]I smell bs. Unless you're doing penny stocks, the rate at which you're buying and selling stocks would probably lose you more money overall as you're paying a higher tax on capital gains. If you actually invest, you'd know there are short term and long term stocks. You are taxed much more on stocks you've held onto for less than a year. If you're making weekly trades, you're barely making any profit - if any, at all.[/quote]

Nice dude.

[quote=nhan1st]I basically took 6 years of merching in maple knowledge and applied it to the real market.

I do my research, pick a few company to specialize in, know it's trend since there's usually a 1%-5% fluctuation in stocks daily. I buy when it's at it's weekly low and sell it at near it's weekly high. There's a 3 day payment hold for selling stocks so I can't trade daily since I'm just an university student without much money. The amount you make is based on how well you play the market and your initial investment amount. 10k is good enough for starters as a 3% profit weekly is $300 or about 1.2k a month from investing. Now, it might not seem a lot, but the time spent looking at stocks is at most 30 minutes daily, so you're making over a grand in about 10 hours of work on your computer. Just make sure you're playing the market right. I've lost near a grand because of stocks plummeting too...

TL;DR Buy low, sell high. Maple taught me well.[/quote]

@dontPmeoff: Get money. Buy parts of other people's company/money (also known as stocks). Wait. Sell when price goes up. Profit

I always wanted to invest in stocks. Teach me senpai! ;3

[quote=drager260]Every single time I doubled, I always got the one on the left [/quote]

I tend to get the left item as well when I double, happened 2/3 this time

@nhan1st
Kind of off topic but HELLO FELLOW ONIGIRI PLAYER!
Grats on LGR.
@drager260
Same I kept getting left on the double.

@drager260:
http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2865126 Is my first 35 spins. I wish nexon gave me a left one since that's where the LGR is... though it's usually the middle one with the best rewards.

[quote=nhan1st]Hue, proof. Shame nexon is against double spinning good results.

Every single time I doubled, I always got the one on the left -.- How were your first 35 spins? I splurged a bit since my bday just passed and had a lot of bday money. Did a total of 100 spins.

Nice! You should have doubled more on the other things. Even things like 3 black cubes would give you a good return if you doubled them.

Hue, proof. Shame nexon is against double spinning good results.

Here in Windia, LGR's are at least 25Bill.

And it's always nice to see a fellow basiler who's into stocks. Hope you invest in the right companies!
