@aus_trader seems to have found a watlzing jumbuck.
Cracking first day for a jump out of the gates...

 

[aus_trader]

Thanks @frugal.rock ! Hopefully stays strong towards the end of the month ?

It's going to be an intense competition between the 41 picks I think, as the market is showing some +ve gains heading into August.

Was just running over a few things, and to me, it's looking like the rally is running out of puff. Will be an interesting month, for sure.

Running out of puff alright! Yesterday around $30 of sales and today, just before close, 8 shares @ 0.015 = 12 cents of sales today, dropping nearly 17% . Are you trying to get out @aus_trader?

 

[Garpal Gumnut]

TNG is picking up some speed.

God only knows why.

Oh dear, I was referring to the "market" in general, not the Frugl stock pick of @aus_trader

Certainly retracing...

Err... Nothing to do with me, I ain't dumping the stock

It needs another thrust higher to get me into the leaderboard, hopefully before the end of the month ?

End of Week 1 in the August Monthly Tipping Comp. The XAO was up 1.07% this week and ASF Team's average was up double that with a 2.15%, a pretty good start!

@UMike TYR 27.88% is off to a good start grabbing 1st Place with a solid 27.88% this week .
@Boggo INR 15.18% grabbed 2nd Place today keeping @Iggy_Pop LKE 14.8% in 3rd Place just in front of @Tropico ASM 14.33% in 4th .

@aus_trader You'll notice because no trades happened last Friday your price didn't reset to zero for the start. It then jumped 20% which cut across the chart and doesn't show your true % on the chart (see thick Brown line) and coming 3rd last. I think I will hide it and I have put a line with A-T on the chart to show where you are in the Comp each update. Sorry mate, I hope that's ok.

@Faramir you have a special ability .

Below is the visual journey of all entries and to the right is the good movers this week and each day. Have a great weekend Folks .

 

[Faramir]

PCK - Pain Chek is definitely causing a fair bit of pain. How do I pick them?

 

[UMike]

Actually PVN is having a great week also.

Lucky is me.

 

[debtfree]

Quick update: @Iggy_Pop is our new leader with a great move today (15.59%) overtaking @UMike in 2nd Place, then comes @thmpl jumping up the ladder today as well (16.67%) to be in 3rd Place.

eight break-even tips .. is that any sort of record ( even if the comp is just over a week old ) ??

Sorry @divs4ever I wasn't ignoring you, just been busy. I don't have records for that but very early in the month it's more common but there wouldn't be all that many by the EOM.

 

[debtfree]

@Iggy_Pop is going great guns so better show a chart for the record. Plenty giving chase still and plenty of time left .

 

[Dona Ferentes]

most of us are just fibre optic strands

End of Week 2 in the August Tipping Comp. While the XAO was only up 0.53% the ASF Team's average had a good week, up 2.89% thanks to a few tipsters having some outstanding weekly returns .
A red Friday has appeared again and we have a warning from @Captain_Chaza that doesn't sound good going forward .

@Iggy_Pop LKE 70.37% had a great week (up 48.39%) racing away with the lead and naturally is in 1st Place . Dropped back a bit today but still has a clear lead.
@debtfree ECT 44.44% also had a great week (up 30%) to grab 2nd Place from @thmpl SYA 41.03% now sitting in 3rd Place after having a great week as well (up 30.95%)

Quite a few not that far away that could upset the top 3, time will tell .

As we know there is a long way to go to the end of the month (13 trading days) and anything can happen in that time.

The visual journey of all entries are below along with the movement table with good movers highlighted.

Good luck and all the best for next week and don't forget, enjoy your weekend Folks .

 

[divs4ever]
