June Stock Competition Entries!

tech/a said:
Some would not hold stock for a month wether winning or losing.
Many would lock in profits or cut losses.
To reflect real trading is it possible to sell your selection
and buy another through out the month---then accumulating
wins and or losses through out the month.

Would this not be a more accurate record of trading?

Know what your saying Tech, I picked AOE, already taken my profit and bought PEM and a couple of others that I wouldn't spruik about, Maybe two comps - one as is to satisfy some members who enjoy the existing comp (keep the prize) and another with your suggestion of a poll which could be open to all members regardless of postings - one vote nominate a stock. Anyway thats my two bobs worth.

Great suggestions guys.

Ideally I would prefer a competition where people could buy and sell stocks over the course of the month but until I can afford to hire a programmer to code such a beast, the competition will unfortunately have a remain as a single stock affair. However, I really do appreciate the feedback and ideas.

Although I must admit, I do enjoy the current competition as a battle of the specs and penny stocks, which is what it has become in one sense. There have been a couple of real cliffhangers this year when it has gone right down to the wire. It has also opened my eyes to a few companies with great potential that I had no idea about before someone entered them in the competition.

All Ords up approx 5% since June 1st

Well done.
 
Wheeeheee!!! I sure am glad I didn't pick SNF with real money.

Hey Joe, is there a Petrified Wood Spoon award???

Ghoti
 
These are the front runners with one day to go, a few places got shuffled today, another one down to the last day? Canny is a fair way ahead but anything can happen. Glad to see most entrants in the black this month. Keep a close eye on the comp board folks for another close finish.

1. canny VTI 0.530 0.705 0.175 33.02
2. brerwallabi AOE 0.350 0.420 0.070 20.00
3. dutchie TNG 0.190 0.225 0.035 18.42
 
Damn ,second place and i'm not holding, sold out of AOE , well it bought a few bottles of chardonay, i could have gone $100 a bottle instead of the cheap $38 a bottle Yulamba if held till today, it could be second on false pretences. Nice pick Canny.
 
Well there it is- a great finish with canny at the front and dutchie and brerwallabi not far behind. Well done to all, most people were near the top at some stage in the comp, a good month overall. Our winners can contact Joe to tidy up the prize giving- I'm sure Joe is looking forward to congratulating you guys.

1. canny VTI 0.530 0.720 0.190 35.85

3. brerwallabi AOE 0.350 0.410 0.060 17.14
 
Another great finish!

Well done Canny and Dutchie! 35% and 21% return over the month is pretty impressive stuff! Can you both please PM me with regards to your prizes and lend me that crystal ball you've been using! ;)

The petrified wooden spoon award this month goes to ghotib! :p:

It will be interesting to see what July brings! The best of luck to all entrants for next month! :D

From this month forward I will be posting an attached image of the final results every month. Here are the June results:

Could you maybe put in the ASX 200 so we can have a gauge of the market as well and who also beat the market?
 
Hi Guys,
Cracked the jackpot at last! Just got back from 6 weeks in Europe, so sorry I haven't been contributing through June.
Joe, Will contact you soon, once I settle back in re winning June.
Good end to the year for me, and produced the spending money for the trip!
VTI still have more to go as the US contract still hasn't been finalised, which should throw it back up to $1 or more when it happens - sometime in the next 3 months.
Cheers - and thanks for the accolades!

Hi Canny,
Congratulations on all counts and welcome back!! Sounds like you had a great trip but I bet it's good to be back! Looking forward to your posts again.
 
Re: June Stock Competition Entries! (to Rich Kid)

Thanks Rich Kid -
Good to be back - though the main thing I've learnt is that 'a watched pot never boils'. It's been far more beneficial to NOT sit at a computer for hours every day - hoping that I'll see some of my shares go for an upward run!
It's great to check in a couple of times a week and see decent moves, like with VTI and OPL in June.
As I've missed out on the research for a few weeks, do you have any hot stocks you think it's worth taking a look at? (At my own risk of course)
Cheers

Hi Canny,
I suppose the tipping comp is one place where people post stocks they think will run, so that's a starting point. Also the Breakouts thread (in stock chat) and the last few days of posts in the ASX Stock chat forum had some. I don't really have any that are sure fire. I'm a bit nervous about the market atm and so I'm taking it easy.
