Anybody else on here do online trading?

Got any thoughts on what you're going to do when the market opens on Monday?

Reuters is reporting that the Nikkei is up 1% on news of Bin Ladin's death, and silver fell 10%. The price of crude fell 1.3% as well. Surely there is a way to capitalize on this event.

The markets will fluctuate or even crash on almost any news. The markets are houses of cards.

Stocks move in (sometimes) predictable ways when there is a big event in the news. The obvious example would be that whenever Apple releases a new product, their stock skyrockets, eventually settling down. But if you buy Apple stock before the release (which everyone knows about because they announce it), and then sell the stock at the peak of the skyrocket, then you can make a good deal of money.

Honestly, I'm surprised more people on /g/ don't trade. You have the inside knowledge about tech companies that could give you this kind of edge in quick trading. For news about Osama:

There doesn't have to be a company. It's all about how the even affects companies. The Tohoku Earthquake caused the stock of Japanese construction companies to skyrocket, even though there was no money exchanged.

What analysts are saying is that there will be a backlash in the middle east that will affect oil company's profits. Whether it really will or not is irrelevant. The markets are betting on the next six months, not reporting actual stock prices. Reuters is reporting that the price of crude oil already fell 1.3%, and there is so far no proof warranting this drop.

What I mean to say here is that these stocks skyrocketed on the DAY AND WEEK OF THE DISASTER. Far too early for proof. The stock market is all about speculation, and traders are often wrong, but if you can learn to think how they think, then you can make money off their mistakes, as prices move in predictable ways.
