  2. That looks like a larf, cheers.
     
  3. its actually a good idea ... marketingwise

    does not cost them too much to get some exposure and possibly
    new customers to their platform and company

    :)
     
  4. Yeah, didnt even look it up (until like an hour or 6 ago), i just assumed another 3 day/week arrangement daytrading the es or some rubbish.
    That, just is'nt fun , to me.


    To me, this sounds like fun, whats not to like? I have nothin better to do , obviously, but besides that, seems a right larf, innit.

    thanks im in .. just filled out the forms for it ..
     
  7. I signed up but they were having so many problems in the first week, I gave up. They had me long when I was short and short when I was long and then they just stopped responding to my questions. First place last week was well over $600K.

    They are promoting Onyx and as far as I'm concerned they can keep it.
     
  8. Oh. That doesn't bode well.

    Down from $600k, sounds like they plumped the lot on soybeans and compounded-hope they show the trade logs, but if their that dodgy perhaps they wont.
    Maybe the leader thought they were selling beans:p

    Hi all.. I got in the contest, but made less than 10 trades the whole month .. Didn't put as much time into as I planned to. I shorted a lot of wheat though which helped.. I got an email saying I was in the top 20, but who knows how many people are in it...
