Guys, the FOMO is getting to me. Is it too late to buy in? My coworker's bf who made >$400k on GME today is telling me tomorrow is the day shit pops off, and that it's the last day to ride the wave. I don't know who or what to believe anymore, but at this point, I'm operating on pure impulse and faith in meme magic.

Is placing the follwing after-hours market trades tonight retarded?
>$100 into GME
>$100 into AMC
>$100 into BB
>$100 into BBBY

As soon as the trades execute I plan to put a stop-loss order on each @ 10% below the buy-in.

Is this a bad idea? Am I retarded? I'm extremely ignorant about this stuff and need help, but whether I receive good advice or not, I'm afraid I won't be able to control my impulses due to the massive FOMO I have. I'm just a normie wageslave brokefag trying to double my money and this is the strategy that makes the most sense to me right now. Is there a better way to do this?

I picked it up from another thread, where it was included in one anon's list of stocks predicted to short-squeeze (along with amc and bb). What evidence guides your determination that BBBY won't? I can't find any meaningful stats re: shorts ratio / day-to-cover for any of these stocks besides GME, I'm just going off what /biz/ is stating, but I want to understand the reasons/evidence behind why people are making these claims about these particular stocks

Stop losses are really only useful for leveraged trading so you can set your stop right before your liquidation price and walk away with some beer money instead of $zero. Or, you can set the stop really tight to your buy in if you are using high leverage, and then steadily work your stop up as you get into profit.

LEL.

GME is good if you're a leveraged guy with calls from 40 under, but every knows GME isn't worth that price.

BB is solid if you got in early too. AMC would be great if vaccines were suddenly perfect and already distributed.

NOK is the answer. It's BB but from last week.

I'd like to thank everyone in this thread so far for contributing. I decided to double my original account funding and adjusted the plan based on what you shared.

Just placed the following orders:
>$292 into GME (~1 share)
>$200 into AMC
>$200 into NOK
>$108 into BB

...and decided not to do any stop-loss. No clue what's gonna happen but we'll see. I probably just lost all $800 (= 50% of my discretionary spending account funds) but fuck it, it's worth it for the memes.

I distribute each paycheck into 3 separate accounts: 1 for bills/expenses (50%), 1 for savings (30%), and 1 for discretionary spending (20%). Of the discretionary spending, most is spent on food/restaurants, entertainment and other quality of life purchases, and that account is also what I use for playing with stocks if I choose (as I consider it gambling, hence quasi-entertainment). Since gambling is a vice, I wish to minimize it as much as possible.

I don't know, it just means there are a lot of shorts on it.
That said, everyone and their mother is downloading Robinhood (wsb had +1million subscribers in a few days), nobody understands what is going on, but thanks to the many articles, most people somewhat get the idea that
shorts = against company = hedgefund = bad
call/option = for a company = us = good = money
So my guess is most people will try to replicate the GME short squeeze strategy and simply buy shorted stocks. Most of them seems to be getting higher these days.

>So my guess is most people will try to replicate the GME short squeeze strategy and simply buy shorted stocks.

That is my thought process as well. Ultimately it doesn't matter if there is logic/rationality behind the decisions to buy, what matters is the perception that these stocks will continue to be jumped on by bandwagoners, thus inflating demand and driving the price up artificially

I'm too confused by options to figure out how to utilize them in time, so I just did market buys and plan to sell later the traditional way, should I be concerned that it is not a call/option?
