    Papafox's Daily TSLA Trading Charts

    Those who have responded seem to have missed my point. Papafox discovered that short percentages he reports turn out to not be real percentages. The numbers come from batches and if there are any short sales in the batch, they are counted as shorts. There is no consistency in the actual...

    Papafox's Daily TSLA Trading Charts

    That is both obvious and ridiculous. When the share price is up or down by multiple percentage points at the end of the day in a heavily traded stock, and when you include the shorting activity, the share price is not changing significantly by just the last 1% of the trading activity. Look at...

    Papafox's Daily TSLA Trading Charts

    It may seem clear to you, but your analysis is lacking. The change in stock price compared to volumes of stock and reported shorting should have a logical relationship. The last two days does not and on the face of it, is in conflict with what has been reported along with the rationale, for...

    Now this just doesn't make sense to those of us who are more simple in our approach and is more of the confusion I asked about the other day. If yesterday the short selling was high and the stock price plummeted, but today the short selling is higher and the volume of shares traded was about...

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    What I would like to know is if the short exposure increased? Was it weak hands selling? Was it bots reacting to the news? Or was this orchestrated and acted upon by shorts who sold big time with the opening? Weak hands or bot reaction means someone is out of luck. If it was a short...

    Why Tesla will be out of business in 10-20 years

    Tesla Killer is a misnomer. There is no such thing as a Tesla Killer because the name implies a better product. Since the goal was to move the auto industry to use electric in lieu of fossil fuels, a Tesla Killer would be tantamount to a Tesla victory because it meant that the killer actually...

    Papafox's Daily TSLA Trading Charts

    Yes, that's the problem, it's a guessing game. The traditional thinking was a share sold is a share bought and it only represents a total of one share. But if a share is sold short, it is really a share borrowed and then sold so a share sold short is actually a total of two shares, except if...

    I suppose your sense of humor is even more bizarre or outrageous than mine. Knowing it was a joke i can see the humor in it but if I didn't comment, I think others might have taken your "info" rating as evidence that pedo guy was one of us. There are limits to what one can get away with online...

    @ASRI11 I have to ask how you could rate that post as informative? It was a joke. Maybe sarcasm doesn't translate well You don't think I was accusing a member here of being some sort of pervert do you? Especially since he recognized it as a joke in rating it as funny. Ordinarily I accept a...

    From your own research, would it be safe to say that on days where you see 60% shorting, it is entirely possible because of the mix, that the sum total of shorting could amount to significantly less - say 30%? And is it also possible that on days with 40% shorting it is possible to actually be...

    I've been through the system twice before. They really didn't know where the cars were from the beginning. It has not been a priority. Even when they were clearing out in 3rd quarter 2016 and I bought one that met my criteria, it suddenly disappeared. OK, the system didn't recognize that it...

    For what it's worth, I can offer my experience and what the delivery specialist told me. I have twice rejected taking delivery of a P3D. I was probably offered the first Blue one in the area but they only gave a few days notice and I would have to sell stock to pay for it. They want to flip...

    I don't trust anyone to be honest and trustworthy when it comes to criticizing a company that has demonstrated it is a clear and present danger to the continued wealth of some pretty evil corporations. All you need do is see how Republicans criticized Trump before and after he was elected, only...

    Or maybe start offering the SR battery. Sure they want to maximize profits for Q3, but at the CC if they can also report that they are going to add the SR as an option that day, it would come close to closing the door on critics. Then again, only close to closing the door. The shorts and...

    Market politics

    The only possible solution to the nature of human susceptibility to corruption is term limits. But we all know it is the corrupt who hold office and those who own those in office who oppose term limits. And while most people seem to agree that politicians are corrupt, I basically hear that...

    Too many are being distracted by obfuscation of a more devious group than the little pissants who troll this site CNBC is a partner in presenting all news Tesla in the worst possible light. It isn't news but it is distortion to serve some interest. The latest hit to the stock has been an...

    When you kill rats, does it keep more from coming back? In rat infested areas, there is always the risk that more will crawl into even the most protected, clean areas. Still, it's pretty satisfying to kill them with traps when you come back to toss their carcass. But it certainly is no fun to...

    Not directly related to the above point, but you do state that you like to eat and enjoy having capital gains. If I remember correctly, you would not qualify to hold stock in TSLA in the traditional way since you are not an accredited investor. So that raises the question as to why you would...

    This post will probably earn a number of disagrees, but that's fine. I expect it. TSLA has been around long enough that anyone buying the stock has had ample time and information to determine whether it is a company that has long term value. Some buy it for growth and some buy to support the...

For that reason, I must correct you in attributing the quote to him rather than the one who taught it to him. The expression was coined...
