Stock Market is the bottom in?

[bigboreblr]

Is up 517% in not even a whole day good?

Someone's thumb is on the scale?

Think the TLT might not be a hot one to hold on? Feds held the rate.

Might wait on Microsoft a few hours to buy.

I figured it out. I should be out of the trade on the next resumption.

English please

A stock is running up so fast that the exchange keeps halting trading on it to slow momentum.

What happens when a stock is halted and what are some of the reasons why

I think I might buy some UVIX, set a trailing stop and walk away. I'm mentally exhausted.

Isn't there some kind of rule in place that after a certain number of halts the trading of that stock is done for the day? Or did I dream that one up?

Not exactly. It's currently in a volatility halt, but they can decide to put it in a T12 halt until they can figure out what's going on. It's a Singaporean company, so I might be difficult for them to get someone on the phone.

They can also leave it in a volatility halt as long as they want. The previous one was over an hour, and the stock is listed on AMEX, so they don't tell you when it will resume. You just have to sit and wait.

So you do mainly day trading? I don't do that. I should (maybe) but I don't. I'm more of a buy and hold at least for the short time.

Yes. It took me years to learn how. It takes a lot of experience to consistently read patterns correctly. I'm successful, but I still consider myself relatively new. It will be a few years probably before I dare trade like the real pros do, if I ever get there at all.
