The return is slightly higher. DDM is no longer in the index. It was replaced with RIMM.

OMG...angry

I'm gonna dabble in options and buy some 220 rimm contracts to see what happens

WOW options are insane the leverage is nuts

 

Sorry guy's if this sounds a silly question, But if I buy 1000 shares of a $50.00 stock for ever tick it moves I am set to make or loss $10.00 a tick and does the same apply to a $100.00 stock is this correct?.I just want to make sure

Thanks

No answer, maybe it's a hard one to answer after all:eek:

 

depends how you define a tick

could be a dollar or one cent depending on the increment

Those things take more time than it takes you to read a Dr. Seuss book to pan out.

How's summer camp stock_turder? Meet any cute guys?

 

SiSe,

Do you hate everyone in the world? Has anybody ever done anything in your mind that you find admirable, or do you just think you are better than everyone in the whole world?

TNG

 

The easiest way to figure it out is just to take the number of shares you bought and multiply it by the change in price.

i.e. you bought 1000 shares and the stock moved .01.

1000 x .01 = $10

So every .01 'tick' is $10

Don't forget to add in the commissions you're paying to play the stock. This is what most noobs forget about. A $25 commission to buy AND sell a stock means you need the stock to 'tick' up 2.5 ticks just to break even.
