I should've stuck with my perennial favourite, AHZ. %23 from May's open @ 0.030, 0.037 so far. And here I am in the comp with the moribund BLT.

Oh well: I have to console myself with the miscellaneous fact that I hold buckets of AHZ

I'd better win something. In the top 3 until the last day of April. A strong second now!

Leader in social trading... don't 90% or something or other lose? Why would. Want to know what the masses are doing... Good one etoro.

Do like the name though - any bullfights happening?

Congrats to the place getters in a month with <30% tipsters producing positive returns.

Replying to this thread as the entry thread is closed....I mentioned that my pick was CUU again but was changing it for AUQ. Lesson learned: stick with what you know. CUU up 12.5%, AUQ tanked.
