    just to share where i am. Its all for fun and it is interesting.

    After Wednesday close, I was ranked #10505

    Not real great, but in the top 5 %, so i guess i am satisfied.

    My goal is to finish in the top 1 %.

    I realize winning is almost imposssible, but we can learn something from this, if we try. To win 1 week, or finish in the final top 10, you would have to be more lucky, than good at picking stocks. I had to smile, when a few players were all in with NEW. Not saying it was a bad idea, just kinda funny. I believe the ones who win will have to do it, like this. However, my goal is to finish in the top 1%, and hopefully learn a pattern, that might pay off, with real money.

    Keep posting, I am enjoying reading. I hope everyone is having fun with this.

    Okay, I'm the only one here that has a real chance at 10k for this week. I think the 12 donkeys ahead of me either held FMT into Thursdays trading session.

    Hopefully they either took % losses today since I got out. I was in CVTX today and it didn't do shit, but no loss. I just hope they didn't have an ace in the hole like MAMA today or I'm done but what are the odds of that?

    BTW, I dumped all and went all in on KRY for Friday. Wish me luck,

    Mike

    PS. I was real glad that FMT gave back all its gains as new shit the bed.
    :p

    Say CNBC Million Dollar Portfolio Challenge players,

    Are price's all end-of-day for buying & selling?

    Or can you sell at a certain time of day and get credit
    for that time and price.

    thanks

    trade well my trader friends.

    i am up 20% on wendesday, ranked 444, then dropped to 19% ranked 893. so that means there are 500+ people passed me on thursday. i thought most guys play NEW FMT, i guess other smart guys do well too. 19% in 4 days only #893

  10. This sucks man and is rigged. Thought I really had a shot. I guess most timed fmt right like myself at the close of Wed. and some had nice % gainers yesterday.

    Probably someone had MAMA. I was really hoping they were still in sub primes but obv. not the case. I'm in KRY today and only up like 1%, so I'm done. So I went from 13th to 275th from Wed. action to Thursday:
