Anyone Interested In A New Weekly Contest?

How about Peanuts???

Remember what Lye said about me??? You don't want a Nazi running a POTW contest... trust me

How did you do it?

I know you are setting up the rules, Rob. I would like to see a POTM (month) contest. With your new rules.

Also, I rather than a new contest, I would like to see if the top 3 winners each week would be willing to share how they came up with their picks. That would be educational and beneficial to me, who is not very good at picking.

mimo,
Doug (IIC) has such a good record I'd like to ask him how he makes his final selection. Sometimes I have many of the same stocks on my watch list but can't figure how he makes his final choice for the contest.

Actually a Nazi might be perfect for running a contest such as that suggested. Aren't Nazis known as sticking unswervingly to the rule of law? That's what it takes.

A benevolent nazi, please, if that isn't too much trouble!

All different ways...But unlike Ski...my contest pix have little relation to what I usually trade in real life.

For example...ACOR...I never would have shorted it in real life...For the contest I simply thought the euphoria was over. And I was right for a little while...after I posted ACOR short it went down several percent...But then whamo it took off again. If I had really shorted it(which I wouldn't have) I would have tried to cover to make about 20 cents...I thought about doing that for the contest for the sake of the quarterly standings...but since there is no quarterly prize I decided to let it ride...I had already used up my first pick...IIC

you mean you didn't enjoy having your name in lights as winner of the Special K cumulative results?
