Re: ASX Sharemarket game

hovering just outside the top 2%, but after a very good day today it should see me re-enter the top 1%.

now if i can just sneak that little bit higher.

go that energy services sector.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

inside the top 1% - and another good day with WOR's good news.
good day for DOW too.

might be time to change tack just for a few days.

consolidate the current balance, await the inevitable profit taking, and buy back in, expanding the portfolio.

victorias gaming decisions are due any day - might visit there.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

My strategy will be the same as in the Trading Matters game, except this time my plan is to make money instead of losing it .

How's the strategy coming along Mousie?

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

and subsequent good days for the rest of the market see me crashing out - plummeting in fact.

oh well, surely theres another credit crisis at hand.

maybe some moves once WOR's new acq is finalised.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Shhh freddie,

I'm hiding in tigerboi's printer so that I can jump out and steal baglimits portfolio.

Best we don't talk about how my strategy has been going. Although, I have made about $2500 in the past two days.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

was going well - till i decided to offload DXL, and take advantage of the upcoming gaming licence decision and bought TAH - oh dear are they gonna take a pounding next week.

my comp is over.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Oh dear,

You know how in those reality tv shows they line you up and say "you are in the bottom 3" ... well, *gulp* I'm almost down there with them! As soon as I buy something, it goes down. New strategy might be to sell all my shares and stop trading, then at least I might catch up to the national average!!!

Up the garden path and in totally the wrong direction

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Doing terribly! Haven't actually traded though ... bought a bunch of stocks on day 1, let em' ride - still ranked 6000-something though.

Still have blooming 50k Certain stocks up a lot, others down a lot! I can't seem to lose any money, or gain : One goes up, the other goes down ... & so forth. The horrors of a semi-diversified portfolio!

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Been heading down the gurgler myself.
Not being able to set a stop for my trades has seen me give back all my profits and some. Goes to show how important in real life having a stop loss in place really is.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

Not doing huge as I haven't focussed.

DXL has been my saviour along with ASX, BEN and MND.

I have traded the ASX each time it went down and sold each time it went up. Good little money spinner.

LGL and IIF has let me down.

If I had focussed on day one I would be close to the top 100. No focus, now sitting at 1123 as of yesterday and maybe around 600-800 today. I still have my master plan - $16,000 cash just waiting for the next fall. I fear my lack of focus on the game I have left this too late, but I never say die.

Bit of fun and hats off to the top trader in this market quite an achievement to date.

My strategy has been to always leave cash overnight, just in case.

Re: ASX Sharemarket game

and in the biggest comeback since............someone who returned bigger than before.........

after my TAH debacle i thought 'oh well, lets just trade some junk and have fun with it'

well that fun enabled me to return to my previous cash levels, plus a little more, well short of the leaders this time, sitting at about the top 5% spot.

then i decided to buy a stock that had been oversold i thought.....

st george bank was its name.

o what a day.

id reckon im back in the top 1% again after today - shall let ya know.
