Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Even More Dangerous

That's even more dangerous.

'Scalping. Been a while.'

There are many kinds of day trading.

Short as a few hours, long as a few days holding before selling.

But scalping.

Longest a few minutes, shortest a few seconds to see the win or loss. An extreme trading method.

💬 Korean Stock Gallery — Anonymous Ssangbural's gonna rebound, right? Please — Anonymous Ssangbural waterfall lmao — Anonymous Ssangbural volume 100 million ffs lol — Anonymous That thing needs to go back to 700 won

It's only possible when volume explodes like this.

What matters isn't the company's value, but pure 'interest'.

'If the community's buzzing, that's all I need.'

Right now, the hottest stock in Korea.

Not Samsung Electronics, not SK Hynix—it's Ssangbural.

— Anonymous The big players took out the institutions!

I'm not buying on blind hype alone.

In scalping, you don't look at financial statements.

'Felt like the big players were about to pump it.'

You watch the order book.

The volume of stocks currently trading.

From its movement, you can infer the rough situation.

The big players exist.

Besides institutions and foreigners, groups that bought massive amounts of this stock.

— Anonymous Ssangbural VI damn — Anonymous Should've bought Ssangbural — Anonymous Avg 930, sold Ssangbural at 1010 wtf?? — Anonymous Ssangbural tight balls lololololol

Those who don't know or don't think about it get lucky wins.

But if you know and respond properly.

'There were definitely big players on the chart.'

You can win not by chance, but by inevitability.

'The big players' buy that stock over a long period.

Why?

Because they know the info.

Using insider trading and various methods.

Ssangbural will attempt to acquire Ssangdu Car!

When such good news hits, the price has to surge.

They pour oil on the fire.

Even if institutions and foreigners dump massively.

— Anonymous The big players ended the foreigners' ant massacre!

The big players have the power to push the price higher.

They explode the price upward.

Down 2% at first.

Up to 10% where VI triggers.

But I'm seeing beyond that.

'Institutions and foreigners sold at market open.'

I know institutions' and foreigners' patterns too.

Obviously, since I was in their position myself.

Stocks surging without reason? Realize profits first.

So it might dip a bit early in the session.

— Anonymous Ssangbural blasting off lololololol — Anonymous Why is Ssangbural rising? — Anonymous Fuck sold already ㅠㅠㅠㅠ — Anonymous Are they really acquiring Ssangdu Car?

They catch on late.

Eh? Is this going up?

Retail investors aren't the only ones having that 'oh shit' moment.

'Institutions and foreigners are human too.'

People think alike.

Everyone piles in on the rising price.

Program trading kicks in, shooting it even higher.

Sell order executed.

28%.

Lock in profits here.

Beyond this, it's a bloodbath between profit-takers and zombies chasing the 30% daily limit.

'No reason to join that mess.'

Just watch the show and eat the rice cakes.

No need to risk for that extra 2%.

To me, risk is exactly that.

Grip the market's psychology and squeeze to the limit.

📰 Daily News "Ssangbural Ssangdu Car Acquisition Off—Funding Uncertain"

A breaking news alert one minute later.

How the price moves is obvious.

Ants who haven't seen the news will keep buying.

— Anonymous The ants got rekt! — System Enemy double kill! — System Enemy triple kill! — System Enemy quadra kill~!

Fast info gets the big players, institutions, foreigners dumping.

In an instant, from +30% to -10%, hitting lower VI.

— Anonymous Bagholding retard on Ssangbural keep cheering lololol +7 — Anonymous Check out Dr. Hail's driving lololololol — Anonymous Will rescue squad come if I wait? — Anonymous I rode a trash op stock that killed my mom

Not my problem.

I locked in profits a full minute earlier.

28% on 520k.

No, used day trading credit too.

Bought the dip when foreigners and institutions pressed it once.

⚔ STATUS ⚔ 『Lee Chan-wook's Total Assets』 859,471 KRW +338,580 (+65%)

The result.

Sucked it dry sweet as honey.

So sweet my teeth might rot.

'Ahh~ This is when you puff a cigar and wet your throat with whiskey.'

Lifts the mood sky-high.

Feel like the smartest guy in the world.

It's just 500k anyway.

Even with day trading credit, 1.25 million max.

Seed's too small, so gains are small.

'With 500 million, it'd be real money.'

Not a fixed amount.

Proportional to total capital.

Bigger seed, bigger gains.

Money around 500k.

Repeat this scalping, billions are just a matter of time.

'If compounding like that, tax office investigates for sure?'

Practically impossible.

Sucks that even with skill, society makes it unrealizable.

Not what I want anyway.

Just made a ton of money?

Lottery-level story won't move the masses.

'Need thousands, no, tens of thousands to billions moving on my word.'

Crucial in stock market.

Famous person buys, premium on price.

Like Warren Buffett.

And Nylon Musk.

That Mars lunatic tweets shit, interpretations everywhere.

📰 Daily News "One Nylon Musk Tweet... Bitcoin Surges 15%" 📰 Fact News "Musk's Overt Lewd Tweet... Adult NFT Coin Explodes 350%" 📰 Korean Paper "Musk Changes Twitter Name Briefly, 'Namesake Coin' Up 825%"

Real talk.

That's the influence I want.

Manipulate the stock market to my taste, more than last life.

'To do that.'

I need to create a legend.

Not half-assed success, an epic even Korean kids across the globe gasp at.

Got plenty of time for that.

Bonus: cultivate followers.

💬 Economics Dept Men's Group Chat — Someone "50k is enough for beef, right?" — Someone "Budget tight, pork belly ㅠ" — Someone "Ah..." — Someone "Freshmen suffer. Kids, pay up the fee" — Someone "Girls coming?"

Heading to a spot with good vibes.

10 minutes ago, I couldn't dream of joining.

'Copied some money.'

Money's ready.

Time's plenty.

No reason not to go.

For fun at least.

Wonder how pathetic these 'seniors' are, puffing their chests.

"Can't drink?"

"Sorry, senior..."

"No need~ Drink if you want, non-drinkers or lightweights get soda."

"Yes~!"

Contrary to expectations, no fun happened.

Warm and fuzzy welcome for freshmen.

'Kids these days don't know alcohol limits.'

Drink till near death to claim you drank.

Excusing non-drinkers? World improved.

Back then, drink first think later.

Get shitfaced dog-level to understand beasts.

"You're the top freshman?"

"Top~!"

"Good looks and brains? Total cheater. Take a shot."

"Any clubs in mind?"

World improved, but clingy seniors inevitable.

Eyes flock to table end, naturally.

'Pretty face.'

A girl.

A pretty girl.

Men drawn by DNA instinct.

Brains too, they say.

Economics Dept Top Student.

Proud, neck stiff in defiance.

'Milk bottle's appealing too.'

In stocks, growth stock.

Promising future value? Worth value investing.

But world's not simple.

CEO's skill and character matter.

"I came to college to study."

"No, that's not..."

"Grateful for the excessive attention, but I plan to skip these events as much as possible."

Pretty girl trait.

Massive unfounded confidence.

Never faced anything but goodwill.

'Brain's empty.'

Overinflated ego or no reality sense—immature either way.

Still.

"Right, college is for studying!"

"If I'd focused freshman year, my GPA would've been fine."

"Real winner. Pretty, smart, sharp mindset."

"Seniors were too pushy. Right?"

Korea.

Land where girls get away without manners.

Simp guys shield her.

'Sucking the rag ehy.'

Sad.

Crayfish side with crawfish—girl seniors push guys away.

"Good job, good job!"

"Those idiots only get it drawn out."

"Guys are childish, right?"

Probably.

Jealous of pretty girl ignoring guys.

'Rag society as always.'

Unchanging law across eras.

Rock paper scissors all same.

"But why study so hard?"

"Yeah, yeah!"

"Got goals."

"Goals?"

"After graduation, securities firm trader. Want recognition for my skills."

"Whoa, trader~!"

"Heard from grads it's brutal..."

One thing impossible.

Listening quietly, aims for securities industry.

'Every fund had one hardhead bitch like that.'

HR deals with them.

Thinks they're special.

Hire them? They love it, but purpose is desk flower.

You work?

Make money?

Bullshit, no expectations.

Just boost staff adrenaline with face and figure.

No money entrusted to high ideals low skill.

CEO's cold judgment.

One issue.

"Bitches like that strut as traders."

Slipped out loud.

Silence.

50-seat BBQ joint goes dead quiet like empty.

Sizzle, sizzle!

Only pork belly grease popping.

Even in judgment-lost chaos.

"Time flew. Paid fee, heading out first."

Move fast.

Investor's job.

Buyer or seller, first one survives.

My sell timing perfect.

Just exit before they snap out.
