Sorry Joe I think my entry price should be $3 something not $0.06.

First I saw WHAT???? Then looked my chart then I thought there must be a flash crash on MCE on last Friday

 

[Joe Blow]

Apologies for all the errors this month folks, but I was quite rushed when I set the competition up.

Robusta's entry has now been corrected.

Please let me know if there are any more errors.

Hi Joe

There appears to be an error with the bottom 8 stocks on the current leaderboard.
They are showing a nil current value and therefore -100%, when, if fact, they are all still trading and do have a value.
My stock pick- NST- is actually up 16%.

No doubt you will check it out.

Regards

Mickel
