Stock market guide

This guide will explain how to get all stock market achievements, and when you should get them, as well as the strategy with loans. If you have anything to add, ping _nyan.cat_ on discord.

Loans:

Loans are unlocked by upgrading your office level, and are good to use in click combos. They boost your cps for a period of time, and then reduce it by more for longer. Use them during combos for their positive effects and you can just ascend after to get rid of them.

Earlygame and midgame stocks:

At this point in the game you want to just get the easy stock market achievements for their milk, and leave the difficult ones till later.

Initial public offering: most simple of all, just buy a stock, and sell it once it will turn a profit after considering brokers. Wait till the price of which you're selling at is at least 20% more than you bought at to be safe.

Rookie numbers: You need at least 100 of each stock at once for this achievement, which requires you to either have at least 100 of each building, or a couple extra office levels with a few less buildings. This achievement shouldn't be hard, just make sure to buy stocks later on in the run after a combo so they are cheap relative to your bank.

No nobility in poverty: This achievement is basically the same as the last, but you require 500 of each stock. You can get this later on at the end of a midgame ascension in the same way as the previous achievement.

Full warehouse: You need 1000 of one stock at a time. To get this, just buy 1000 of one of the cheap stocks that you have 1000 space for. You can do this at the end of an ascension after a combo to make it cheaper relative to your bank.

Make my day: This achievements is a bit harder than the rest. For this, you need to make a $86,400 in one sell. To get this achievement, you can get about 1000 of a stock and sell above $86. It is only based on how many cookies you get when selling, the amount when buying doesn't matter.

Buy buy buy: Essentially the opposite of what the previous achievement is, spend $86,400 on one stock purchase. To do this, buy at least 1000 of a stock whilst the price is about 86.4. You can increase or decrease the price per stock requirement if you buy more or less of the stock.

Pyramid scheme: Unlock the highest stock market headquarters. Once you get level 12 cursors whilst following the sugar lump spending guide, and have enough cursors, level up your office to level 5 to unlock this achievement.


Lategame and endgame stocks:
At this point, you will have stopped ascending as quickly, which is required for liquid assets and gaseous assets.
- You want as many buildings as possible for this, and preferably max office level for even more warehouse space. .
- The strategy is simple, buy when low (less than about $5-10) and sell when they're high, (over $90-100)
- Using supreme intellect is a substantial boost in profits as it makes stocks more chaotic. You can also use reality Bending to get an extra 10th of supreme intellect, although this isn't as noticeable.
- You want to buy as many stock brokers as possible to have a minimal overhead cost.
