How did you do this week? Thanks to some nice gains in a telecom stock and a gold stock, I had a good overall week. My results:
Value: $1,068,996.12
Rank: 154,400
Percent: 18%
Not bad. And I have not had a single bonus buck. I'm not interested in that. I want to see what I can grow my portfolio to based on an assumed million dollar starting amount.
Please post your results in the comments below.

Bad week and one set of transactions that didn't execute on time and cost me 2% in one day. And what's up with AAPL? Nothing but great news and still resistance.

I expect Monday to be awesome since a stock I picked should rocket up.

Next time round I should play one of these games.
I was in a school on Friday where the class was playing a game on vse.marketwatch.com, a class competition.
Well, dang if there wasn't 3 kids that really got into it and they just totally work on it somewhat like a team. They make their own decisions, but they follow each other so closely on strategy.
Anyway, they started their game on Feb 22 with 100k and one has 163k, the next has 159k and third has 130k. About 40% of the students are ahead.
So, I had a look back to see what this 16-year-old was doing. He's definitely trading, and he is leveraging 100%. What was quite interesting to me is on the first day he had about 6 buys for $300 each with $30 commission each. He says to me "don't look there, I was just learning."

Oh, and if I get a chance I'm definitely going to check into that class again to see how the game continues.
The student learned from his 10% commission charges and he figured the best way to reduce them was to put all of your money in one stock at a time.
I'm looking to see what he learns about risk management.

Based on results through 5/3/07 I have done pretty well considering some of my portfolio changes were not registered for the next day,
I was late in making changes.
I am in the top 18%, not a pro & only been doing the contest for less than 3 weeks.
It has been and will be fun to see my final results.

Spam is fun isn't it. Just wait until you are getting 20-30 spam comments a day. I am searching for a way around it for WordPress but have not seen anything yet.
