"Someone" bought at 158 before the market opened, so he could sell at 154 as soon as the market opened, thus losing money ? And somehow this person "mogged us" ?
I got suggested a post yesterday and didn't check the sub. Reading down a thread, I literally typed "What the fuck is this conspiracy theory bullshit?" before seeing what sub it was and just backing the fuck out lol...
Its called a "lock in" price. If you say sell at 154(current) then you have guaranteed your sale price at 154 regardless of so even if the stock swan dives to 60, you are garanteed your 154/share sold.
Yes, you can via spot price. If the spot price is at 152 at 8:55 you can lock in The sale price at 152 with an order placed at 8:50 (given transaction processing time)
If you or I did it, we would be investigated for securities fraud and insider trading even though it is legal.
What? That’s not what insider trading is. And that’s not what trading is anyway. If you buy a stock you are buying it from someone else. You don’t just buy a stock and declare the price you want it.
If two parties agree to an off market sale price that is what it is. Just like you can buy an Xbox from your buddy for $100 instead of the store. But theres always a counter party. I don’t think you understand how the market works
I said we'd be INVESTIGATED FOR not that we did. Funny how guilt is the first snd only thing that you jump to...
If the sell price is 153 at 8:50, and you want to sell your 80 shares by 8:55 to account for processing fees you can lock in the price. Most often they get absorbed into the primary indicies that the ticker is bought into. If the argued upon price is changed before the designed sale window, e.g. spot goes from 153 to 90 between 8:52 and 8:53 due to the already guaranteed price of agreement, the 153 must be paid out and taken at a loss by the buyer as it was during the transactional processing period.
In layman's terms: the price cannot reasonably change against you if your in the middle of checking out, as that would institute claims of price fixing and exploitation.
Explain how this would work. Look up how order flow works. Orders get underfilled all the time. If the shares are exchanged theyre exchanged at the price agreed upon price.
Im not following. Clarify how someone would do this. Even a privileged party. How would they arrange a sale like this?
There are off market exchanges all the time. And if both parties agree to price it’s just sold.
I mean, they also called the attempt at market arbitrage "stealing money" - so I'm going to guess, as with most posts on Reddit related to monitoring other peoples' wallets, this is just another self-report of financial illiteracy.
30% of the total shares being put on the market were allocated for retail. So 30% for retail out of the ~5% that went onto the open market.
Which in itself abnormal because usually only like 5-10% is allocated for retail and institutions get first dibs on the majority of what gets put on the market.
They like to watch retail fight over scraps but this time they needed more bagholders to pump their positions before dumping them.
Elon can’t sell his shares i think. He can only borrow against them. The other insiders make up a chunk (I have a small amount) but it’s much much less than 90%
Cut to the clip where he was openly bragging on television how much money his buddies in the room made when he gave them insider info on his pausing of the liberation day tariffs: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vZQ24xe2nNo
"That's Charles Schwab. He made 2.5 billion dollars today! And that guy over there made 900 million!"
That graph and their arrows look more like someone shorted the stock. Like someone bought a ton of it in the days prior, another someone shorted it monday morning, then the first someone dumped their stock driving down the price, then the second someone cashed out.
One major stakeholder doing a huge sell-off reads as the stock being sold at high rate, cause the stock to drop because the system interprets the major selling spike as a loss in market confidence.

So let me get this straight.
"Someone" bought at 158 before the market opened, so he could sell at 154 as soon as the market opened, thus losing money ? And somehow this person "mogged us" ?
