[quote=temps_bons][quote=Dmitri]250? Try for 275 *yarr* Then you're with the big boyz in a marketplace lol[/quote] Alright, I can see this just never ends does it? But I definitely need the encouragement to spend the points to get there! My biggest fear is that I have a huge shop filled with packrat food! EEEEEK! Luckily I have no desire for anything expensive...I"ve put off feeding my kougra gourmet, training her, reading books to her, grooming her, LOL! Not very long from now it is going to get crazy expensive to upgrade and I need some stocks I guess to make that kind of NPs! Of course the two I chose are in the crapper - 80% last time I checked so I stopped looking! I know how to day trade in real life but I don't even know what the neomarket is based on .... research, portfolios, sales, what what what?. where ARE those things? Bah! ~ Mimi ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~ Mimi's Ménagerie ~ http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=temps_bons&misc[/quote] Neopolian Stock Market: An easy guide: Buy 1000 shares of any 15np stock every day for the rest of your life (If you miss a day, you'll only loose np ;)) People argue that 15-17 is fine, but truly you make more money at 15. Try to make your Port (Portfolio, which shows what stocks you have, what they're at, and how much you have) as diverse as possible, by buying different stocks. If there's a day when the stocks don't seem to ever hit 15 (They change twice an hour, on the 22? and 52? right around there.) then buy 1000 shares of a 16np stock, but don't buy that day if nothing shows up all day except 18 and up. Once you've got lots of shares in many companies, keep buying. As time goes on stocks will rise and decline. Never sell at a loss, a stock hasn't crashed in years so you have nothing to worry about. In the rising, here's the guide to sell: at... 30-if you need the money 40-if you can hold out 50-if you have a long term goal to reach (Such as a really high shop upgrade costs) 60-if you have a very large port, the stock seems to be rocketing, or you are patient enough. This is where I am, the 50-70 range. What I do is I sell half at 50, half of that at 60, and half of that every 10 it goes up until 90, then at 120 so that I always make profit, but I still have shares left if it decides to rocket into the 400's like POWR did. I (At the time of this post) have 84900 shares, in 34 different stocks. Some of my stocks have 5K shares, others 1K, a couple have odd numbers like 2400 or 1500 because they went up, I sold halves or parts, and they came back down. Lol you can tell I've had nothing to do for the past 15 minutes so I typed this up XD

I get bored easily, just today I decided to see how many shop sizes 1 bil would raise from 0. Based on your current shop size of 0 and 1,000,000,000 NP, you can afford to upgrade 3162 sizes, to get to size 3162 This will cost you exactly 999,508,200 NP Edit: I froze the portal trying 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (One Quintillion?)

^ Good but even if nothing shows up at 15ish, i would still buy 1000 of the cheapest stock. Yea profits might be lower but if you skip that day, profits will be none.

Oh and Dmitri, that time when I was getting 'schooled' by you and you were working on your project, well I had to leave to pick up the love..and lo and behold got pulled over for speeding, 17 over...but got away with 5 over and him not towing me since I technically do not have a driver's license....lol I say you are bad luck! Or I just have a lead foot. hahaha. I swear! I thought I was having such a good night, getting photo shop and whatnot, all excited..psh! 120 buckaroos later!! Thanks again =)
