      It's more like 3 months is too short a period to establish whether or not a strategy actually works or not. The stock market on aggregate is volatile (randomly goes up or down a lot), with individual companies even more so. Over time this volatility cancels itself out, and your good companies will be reliably up and the bad ones down, but that is over the span of years, not months.

I knew that wasn't enough time for profit, and since it wasn't real money, I invested it all in penny stocks hoping for a miracle. We had $1000 and I was actually up $300 at one point, sadly I ended with a loss of $3... One or my stocks went from about $1 to $4 and then back to $1 in the span of about 3 days.

I did buy a few individual company stocks, with less good results. Diverse investments are better, if one company goes down, others go up.

    I once was out in a rural scottish village at night, just going to buysome food and beer with my first mate. And on the way back to the boat, a woman stops us in the middle of the street. She's pretty and asked us to join her at a party nearby, some birthday party. And she sung to us full volume, whole songs, and read from our hands.
    The last bit was the funniest because I know how fortune tellers work, and they need a reaction to you to adjust their guessing and make it more and more accurate. But I was stonefaced and gave no indicators. She got frustrated, I could tell, because she didn't know if she was right or wrong about my past or potential future.
    My friend on the other hand is a people pleaser and when she read his hand, he immediately gave her reactions and bent her words so it fits his past and exused her mistakes always for being "very close". She read his hand for nearly 10 minutes.
    They are just frauds and mentally instable.
