You pick a stock and start with the closing price on the last day of the previous month. You have the choice of shorting your pick and your percentage in the red counts for the month end standings
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. Your pick also must trade between normal trading hours.
There is no volume restriction.
The winners are announced at the end of the month.
Oh yeah the winner's prize!!
1st: 30,000
2nd: 20,000
3rd: 15,000
4th: 10,000
5th: 5,000
Bonus 2,500 for ending in the black, or red if you shorted your pick! |

I will short GOOG. Why? Because I have absolutely no idea what's going to happen, and it's as good a choice as any. I've been reading some negative things about Google in various places, we'll see if anything causes a hit on the stock this next month. |

Place a little note in your original reply that you changed please. See my example. That way I dont forget or confuse my simple mind. |
