If all your friends are on FB why go out and use another app to pay them? Besides they can use FB pay to buy stuff on IG. IG has become the next great e-commerce platform.
So FB pay is only useful on platforms owned by FB? I no longer use FB and all its platforms. I’ve also sold all my FB shares.
FB is going down by endless selling from Mark Z…until this Nov 8th and he continues to sell during his insider open window. He is a monster owner even bigger than institutional holdings.
Even if he donates to charity, but endless selling results too much supply, stock will only resume when insider window closes.
Your chart is too good ! Since I am expecting S&P pull back, I moved most of my positions, except dividend payers, into cash position.
This time, I will make sure I will get it AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL. I will add more AMZN if it dips below my purchase price. I already sold SHOP keeping just 1 stock, waiting for next opportunity.
Swing gives lot better opportunity and I am not concerned any sharp downturns, neither bothered about tariff impacts or yield curve effects.

@Jil Using your intuition, where is C for SQ?
Note that completion of Cycle wave IV.C is the impulsive wave Cycle wave V which would go above $100.
Okay, this is pure dirty simulation 100% go wrong, best case possible low is $52, worst case $47.
BTW, I do not follow SQ as I focus only few negative net income companies such as TEVA, TSLA and SHOP.
BTW: Do not put me into trouble as I do not want to openly state all such prediction.

Google does not intend to sell customers’ data, Caesar Sengupta, an executive at the firm, told the Journal.

I doubled the shares with $12.95, then sold most of them at $13.75, balance shares holding with 6% profit (trying to hold longer). Results are too good for that company, looks like profit taking after good results.
I went from 10% loss to 6% gain using day trading. This is where my dirty simulation go wrong.

Shopify Stock Is A Huge Winner In 2019 And Near A Buy Point — Is It A Buy?
Bottom line: Shopify stock is not a buy right now.
E-commerce platform provider Shopify helps individuals and small businesses set up shop online and build their brands. Privately held BigCommerce is a close competitor, but now Microsoft (MSFT) and Facebook (FB) have set their sights on digital and online sales.
Shopify is seen as the most likely challenger to Amazon’s and eBay 's (EBAY) dominance among e-commerce platforms.

PayPal’s Sweet Deal Will Lift PayPal Stock
It basically designed the online digital wallet and peer-to-peer payment markets.
Companies like Stripes and Square (NYSE: SQ ) have moved into payment processing and peer-to-peer payments, while companies like Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) have built digital wallets directly into their hardware.
Social media giant Facebook (NASDAQ: FB ) recently unveiled its new Facebook Pay application .
Facebook users who see something they like on Facebook Marketplace can now instantly buy it from a seller. And with Instagram now basically becoming a shopping app, integrating direct payments eliminates a step in the buying process.
Looking at the digital payment environment, one thing is clear: Every firm is trying to offer a closed system that locks in users.
From an interoperable cash, now we have payment systems that can’t interoperate and need hardware/software to do transactions. An improvement? Progress?
Still in the uptrend channel.

Is any1 trying to replace MA and V? Is crypto-currency supposed to do that? If there is no one, your thesis that MA and V are the main beneficiaries are unassailable, wish I am aware of this earlier.
