Russian, isn't T a little tame for you? I wouldn't have guessed that you are a dividend guy. It isn't anywhere near its 52 week low and it isn't very volatile.

and it isn't very volatile.
Besides, if it reacts tomorrow to today's pullback like I think it will, I'll probably sell it.

So, I bought shares of T at $33.52 today right about BINGO time just before noon.
Why T? Just curious

Its 10, 25, 50, 75, 150 and 200 day trend lines converged to create a confirmed Inverted Angel of Death Cross Index Buy Indicator.
J/k, I just made all that crap up.
Seriously, I keep T on my primary watch list and it dropped through the bottom of its "normal" trading range channel. I figured even if I misjudged and it drops further at least I'll get a 5.7% dividend yield while I wait for it to recover. I'm pretty sure its dividend is reasonably safe. The DirectTV merger assured the dividend for the foreseeable future, IMO.

Thanks for the insight, I didn't think it was a quick flip stock since its 52 week moving is only a few dollars, although, I'm sure you're buying in huge amounts that make a 50 cent or one dollar move worth it.

Not "huge." 2,000 shares on this trade. If it goes over $34.04 tomorrow I'll sell it.

Curious, what percentage would that potenntial profit be taxed at?

Google it
Whenever someone throws up a stock symbol I don't know that's what I do
And yes, I did it earlier today for T

You do options as well? I noticed during the MarketWatch MT Game you were in and out of consistent volatile things like I was. I finally figured out what you were doing about halfway through the year but at that point you were already up to half a billion if not more. I then just gave up. I pulled within 3rd around October.
I've really gotten into options trading the past year and a half and now I'm starting to dabble into some futures, but futures take so much buying power that it's hard to get in and out of quickly.

The DJIA seems to have followed a consistent curve for over 40 years.
This pullback may erode over time or blow thru 12500 quickly in the way to the 9000's but it will recover. Just questions of time & price.
Time and price are two separate, difficult to predict, forces. But both are important.

I did silly stuff in the investment game that I would never do IRL. It was cathartic exercise for me. Adjective cathartic, not the noun.

Well no shite. No one can turn $1MM into a fricking billion+ dollars IRL that fast.
