Ok so October 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!!
***NEW CHANGE****
1st: 30,000
2nd: 20,000
3rd: 15,000
4th: 10,000
5th: 5,000
Bonus 2,500 for ending in the black!!
This contest will begin on October 2ndwhich is the first trading day for the month of September. You will have until midnight the day before trading starts to enter your pick.
Good Luck!!!

I thought about picking them again too, lol! Then I thought about a third straight month of going with RACK.
Well call me crazy but I just changed my pick to RACK.  |
