    day trading of any type is inherently risky... betting and investing are pretty similar, in this regard. If your mindset is to win and get out, win and get out. just remember that in both markets, knowing how the market operates and the behavior/reactions of other investors is ten times the fundamentals which everyone follows.

    IF u want to avoid risk, don't do anything, say anything, or be anything. If you want to make money investing, place a rational amount of your attention on the risks, and plan out opportunities. In either market, the bigs make money by staying patient, and looking for profitable opportunities. a strategy to avoid risk is a flawed strategy, because even if it is accomplished it is not worth your time.

    You know nothing about IPO's and anything you think you might know is wrong. Wall St. is a much bigger, much smarter casino.

    Well the IPO started at 15 and now is at 25. I think that is pretty good for the past 2 weeks

    Yea, that's a huge sample size.
