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?

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.
