Ok so August is almost here!
The rules are simple.
You pick a stock and start with the closing price on the last day of the previous month. Best percentage wins.
If you wish to change your stock pick, do not edit your reply. Please make a new reply (and send me a PM with your new pick) or your pick will be disqualified.
Stock must be over 5.00 and there is not a maximum price limit.
You MAY choose a stock that is under 5.00 but you will automatically be in the red until it reaches the 5.00 minimum starting price.
Stock symbols must be valid and not have "." symbols in them, just like when using the simulator.
There is no volume restriction.
The winners are announced at the end of the month.
Oh yeah the winner's prize!!
1st Place - 25,000 e$
2nd Place - 10,000 e$
3rd Place - 5,000 e$
This contest will begin on August 1st which is the first trading day for the month of August. You will have until midnight the day before trading starts to enter your pick.
Good Luck!!! |

I'm going with GLW this month, playing a rebound off of their drop from their last earnings report. Go ahead, Grim, tell me I'm going the wrong direction... it's only fake money anyway.  |

Yes and it's also why my portfolio went back to down 10% for the third time this month, lol. I can only hope I can make back 5% monday!  |
