With the Coronavirus decimating the stock market the last month, now is the best time to invest in stocks. I know a lot of users here are way more knowledgeable than I am when it comes to stocks, so Im making this topic to collectively pool together insight.

We are currently looking into a variety of financial stocks, and random medical ones that seem to spike with any news of Coronavirus.

What else do you guys got?

I am pretty much standing pat fr now. Got some shares in EVRI at a decent long term price, a lot of shares in CCL still (that was at like 8 so I am happy with that movement) in SAVE, got into AKER a little bit and MEGEF.

Pretty happy with all those positions medium term

Should have sold AKER this morning around open. Like I do like it long term but I felt like that surge was going to drop off. Could have just rebought in.

Eh whatever. I'm just glad the hand sanitizer guys I didn't put a lot into. Honestly though might just hold that one too.

MBRX very volatile, flipping them 1.48->1.54 for cheap profits.

I made back the sanitizer loss flipping MBRX.

Could have made a bit more on looking at it now but I saw a pattern of it dropping 2.47 and rising up to 2.54 repeatedly and decided it was safe profit. Not turning down free money.

Not having a job right now I figure I'm obligated to at least put some of my time towards actively making money.

Which unfortunately means alarms before 6:30am which is something I dont approve of.

Anyway MBRX has settled to the point I don't feel safe that any rise or fall will bounce for the time being so I am going back to get some sleep.

Im taking a multi-thousand hit with YGYI, my first loss since starting all this. Ill probably hold it the rest of the day or maybe sell it tomorrow in hopes of mitigating my loss. Im still waiting for my other funds to switch over into my day trade account.

Well I think YGYI will in the long run go up from where it is or was yesterday but it'll probably hold your money ransom for a good long while if you're an idiot like me and bought it at the spike. So is recouping your money worth the opportunity cost of not being able to put that money somewhere else is the question.

I'm pretty hit or miss on the day trading stuff right now so I'm not totally confident I can make back 80 bucks that easily so I'm just gonna hold it.

I think why I didn't sell AKER is yesterday it spiked to like $8

I was hoping for it to spike to that neighborhood again

Really though I could've made like $200, then bought back in around now.

I've got a lot to learn. My mindset still isn't quite right to maximize profits-- it'd be much easier if day trades weren't a limited resource.

Main reason I didn't sell at around +$50 is I'm getting flashbacks to ARMN where I sold after it had a slow fall for a minor gain, after an early day spike, and then it had a mega surge right after I sold it.

That's probably not gonna happen again but bleh.

And now this stupid YGYI is down $100 haha maybe I was wrong about it not falling much more.

Well one thing I can tell you is that there is zero rhyme or reason to how these stocks act 90% of the time. Insiders have all the relevant information and they receive it way before you and me.

Just because a stock did one thing does not mean another stock will do the same thing, even in the same exact situation. Look how different AMRN, LK, and YGYI are despite all starting with massive drops.

I really just need to use stop loss sells a lot more aggressively on stuff that spikes up I think. Like yeah it'll go back down and then back up but you can always just buy on the downswing.

It just makes me uneasy because I can't daytrade all that much.

Yea, I can daytrade more wfh, but once I need to go back into the office, I can't be monitoring this stuff constantly. I'm also learning the hard way how unpredictable stocks are, presumably moreso in this period. Just when I think a stock can't rise/fall anymore, it does

I put very little into YGYI, so wouldn't be a bad idea for me to hold and wait for the next spike to sell

In other news, MFA and JEF are finally green for me. The question is when is the next big dip

Wow. I just got major league boned. And its my fault. I meant to put a stop order at $1.85 but apparently I accidentally hit stop limit. So it executed immediately at $1.90. Lost $4k but it is what it is. I will be kore cautious moving forward.

Yeah that's the other thing

I think I may have been in risk of a violation if I sold AKER right away this morning. I still don't entirely get how that all works. Like I know the magic number is two days but I'm a bit confused on the exact logistics of it.

Like if I sell a stock I've owned for two days to get funds to buy a different one do I still need to let those "settle" or is it more contrived than that.

Get a margin account account and avoid all the ambiguity.

But my general rule of thumb was always, whenever you sell a stock and get funds from it, those funds are unsettled the day you got them and the next day. You can buy with unsettled funds, but you cant sell unsettled funds. Either get a margin account or dont buy again until youre content with selling two days later.

Meaning if I sold a stock today then I simply wouldnt buy again until tomorrow (if I was planning on selling the next day) OR I would wait until two days before buying again (if I was planning on selling the same day). Although you'd also have the option of buying the same day and not selling for another two days...

Today was my best day ever by a huge margin, holy spumoni. ERI finally crawled back above what I paid for it ($18.14) and MFA is booming. Now to start stressing about when it might be wise to get off. I feel like MFA is a safe one to just hold on to long term but ERI I'm way less confident in.

Yeah I've been on EVRI and MFA a few times so I'm somewhat upset that I'm not gaining anything.

I'm just hoping for an oil boom-- got 1k on HPR so if it even gets up to like $0.30 (which I mean it was there as recently as a month ago forget the corona effect, could happen!) I'm going to make a lot of money.
