My Semi Day Trade experience

[MacroGuru]

Well, I have been doing some day trading, making an extra 5 to 10K here or there.

Well, I bought this guy 2 weeks ago for 11K - He popped to Solid last night - He is on the transfer market and is now at 100K, not a bad return on my investment. This, I like :D

Let me be the first to tell you I hate you!

[MylesKnight]

Hey, I've got a guy named Willy Owens on my roster.. It's Willy little Bro'.. Although his little Bro' looks like he absolutely kicks his a$$.

[MacroGuru]

Well, 8 hours to go, maybe, just maybe I might get some more for him.

=)

P.S. I feel the hate ausonny, and it feels good!

[TonyR]

Well, it is about time some of those day trades pay off...mabey you'll remember last time and don't go so far into debt!

[MacroGuru]

HAHAH T!

You know me, I like to hover around -150K it keeps me on my toes, but this time I am going to be needing to get out of it, for the offseason.

[BillyMadison]

indoor--- Well done, I tried some mini daytrading myself picking up 5k here and there, but nothing like that. Well Done.

[lytic]

mini daytrading actully hurts more than it helps since it lowers TS, If you are going to Daytrade... make it worth it (like your trainee one)!!!

As for living in debt, I did that for almost an entire season... it can kill you and that is why I am so far behind. I wish I could take all that interest money back!!!

[MacroGuru]

Well, not to bad.

I just walked away with over 100K in profit from a total of 6 players in day trades.

Wilmer here, scored me a total of 108K but with everything I made 80K from him, the other 25K profit I made came from some other players.

Dang I like day trading

[BillyMadison]

indoor, Im with you, I just don't know what I should daytrade... have any tips?

[MacroGuru]

Well, I do forwards mainly, it's where I am training. Since you are training the middle I would actually day trade the middle.

I carry around 27 to 30 players on my roster at a time, mainly because, they are always out on the transfer list, and I have that have bids, and others I keep because maybe 1 or 2 weeks of training, they will pop, and turn my 1 to 10K investment into something like this past experience.

I have 3 passable PM, and a bunch of inads if I train I know will pop in 1 or 2 weeks.

I also have 3 passable Scoring, that should pop this next week. I know a few of them would have popped faster but I played 2 international friendlies in a row, which hindered that.

[BillyMadison]

How do you figure out whether or not they are close to popping? I know with IM... its in the words of many here "impossible" to tell when they will pop.

Wht I've done, is if I see a player very low... I buy him and sell him for a profit...

Its worked a little bit, and I've made 15k in the 3 players I've daytraded... yea, not much... for me it means, I got one of my trainees for "free" :).

[MacroGuru]

Well, It's a rough guess, but after a couple of players popping, you will roughly know where they are at.

At least I have, and I watch a lot of the guys teams on this board, and their teams. And when they announce that so and so popped, I look at their squad.

It's a vast number of averages I use to determine that. Plus, I have been training forwards with Krondor since I received them.

[illinifan999]

Even then it's tough to guess. I pretty much try to guess if their close by how many stars they put up. For example when I bought Steve Williams for 1k he was inad. He put up 1.5*. After one week he was passable at which he put up 2* in a decent form. Then a few weeks ago he started to put up 2.5* in decent form so I figured a few weeks he is popping to solid. So far I've been within a week or two of guessing when he will pop. Now if you are daytrading I really have no clue how you might guess.

[BillyMadison]

Well, next season... if im in the IV... I will be going Daytrade full throttle, because well, Im pretty sure I can win the division the first season.

[illinifan999]

You think your gonna win D4 your first season? Or is it a typo and it's supposed to say Im pretty sure I can't?

[BillyMadison]

VI... LOL... Sorry.

[illinifan999]

Oh LOL. Yeah you shouldnt have much trouble winning. :)
