"Bowled a couple over yesterday found'm few and far between!
So I hope ya's ain't gunner, 'catch me'-----out!

Got stuck into the ASX 100 early last night, thought they were level pegged, so I made a few adjustments and put a bit of a spin on things. Thought it was big googly and I hope it wasn,t the wrong'in.... Personally after that eposode It might be best to put a bit of speed on things tomorrow!

Anyway after a big day in the field, I tryed to polish off the best I can, but I still think that all those that were unsundrie will not be able to get away with it next time.

All the best to all you punters, think of me when the ball breaks though the resistance and the bails go flying.

Tough day at the office today.

I'm still in front after day 2 but by just under $100 now

I'm only holding 1 x ~$8k parcel atm so there is plenty of dry powder in the keg for next week.

Hopefully I'll get the hang of this trading thing one day

Have a good weekend everyone and see you in the soup next week

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

well i forgot it started so only got in today.. up 200 so far.. its a little annoying that u have to diversify thats not much fun . .30$ brokerage on 10k with bluechips make it pretty hard to day trade effectively.. not that i got time to watch it that much anyway.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Hiya,

I stayed out of it today. Partly because I was going out this morning, and partly because yesterday was such a good day I was expecting a drop today. Sold all my shares just before close yesterday.

I did try to trade once today, when DVC dropped from $3.60 at close yesterday to $3.10 at open today. The trade wouldn't go through though ... some cookie problem on my computer I think. If it had have worked I would have been over $1000 up, but darnit it didn't.

So my current total is still $50,238 same as yesterday close.

cheers
Mouse ... working on cookie problems over the weekend!!!

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Hi prof

Like your style.....I'm only up beer money atm and so I might join you and stock up the fridge as well with 2-3 slabs before that disappears

Mrs bullmarket says she wants to have a go at this sharemarket game as well and so I said we can have $25k each and see how we go.

It's all good fun though

cheers

Registration for the game closed on Feb 21.

cheers

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

that figure of 23% surprised me too, especially as it was an up day. I think the asx may have had a few quirks in their ranking system- I was up $150 on the first day and my portfolio showed that, but in the rankings section I had lost $350
I seem to be using that confused smilie alot these days, even in normal intermanet emails to friends
maybe my brain is broken!!
well that's what mrs frink says anyway.

p.s now all my beer is gone.
p.p.s and I have a headache.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Well things certianly speeded up on Friday as I promised my self, got stuck into the field early and didn't have much time for a bat. Dispite only having half a day to make sum runs I can still be happy that Stocks like BHP, CSL didn't get me down because I bowled'm out early along with sum other mistackable sundries, that could of got away with it. So all in all my fielding aproach really worked, and the pace attack was effective.

After all that brilliant fielding, I had a bit of time to prepare my batting line up. All in all me batting line up looks promising and we should be in for a good day cum Monday to make a few good runs, to help us get on top of the series. Although still alot of home work to be done.

Anyway after all that excitment me and the lads along with a case of beer, have a few things to dwell on over the weekend. After siting the score card and hearing that 'Serious Biusness' has taken control on top of the leaders board, it has got us thinnking and we can't afford to spill any. All though we still have reasons to celabrate, after siting that we made the 'local 5', witch gives us a bit of ensentive to move along to the 'Top 5'.

happy trading to you all and have a good weekend?
