Thank you, canny... being the devil had finally become too much of a burden for me, so it was time I made myself an offer I couldn't refuse!
 
HTA for me please, thanks Joe.
Last time I picked HTA it turned out to be a disaster, hopefully better this time.
 
Wow - looks like a massive contingent of entries - food for thought -
let's see how we all go this month.
9 tips over 10% this month was not a bad result.
 
no stress folks - its not like i take this seriously - lets face it if i win i'm happy to donate to worthy cuase anyway....sorry tech, ya stuck with something else - try nms !!
good to see ya go with NVC fleeta - its gonna be a big month this end.
 
Ok, I messed up and went trout fishing and missed the deadline, but as it is a weekend anyway thought you may consider my entry, especially as I have finished last the past two weeks.I want to go for my hatrick :screwy:

Anyway no probs if not, I know you can't bend the rules Joe, but if you allow it I will pick NAL please.
 
I have no qualms with allowing late entries this time Joe. Theres no distinct advantage since the markets are closed. What says everyone else?
 
Hey Joe
Let him in you did let me in last month when i was late and I thought I was late again this month when I got my days mixed see it happens to us all. I think the deadline should be 9.30am of the first trading day of the new month anyone else agree.
 

Thanks for the support guys.As for the fishing, only 2 caught between three of us, not great at maths but last time I checked, 2 doesn't go into 3 very easily.:millhouse

I think what you are saying Brerwallabi is a good idea in theory but of course it put's more work onto Joe, so maybe not practical to leave the comp open until the last minute.

Anyway you only want me to be let in so that you won't come last

If I am let in and come last again you all have permission to shoot me :shoot:

Well!! I didn't forsee it doing 2 days running of massive panic buying - but it'll probably keep going now and $5 is a very possible figure.
Sheesh - can't win 'em all!!

WME is my actual pick after thinking BTA had gone too far on Friday. Keep an eye on it folks, it might surprise you this month.
 
Joe.

Just one thing Ive noticed now I'm recording the trades.
The entry should be the OPEN on the first trading day of the month.
Here is why.
Take GGY
It opened at .088 not .084
So the loss so far today is .008---the reason why this should be done is that the first opportunity to buy is on the first open of the month.

From a trading view point stops are set from the BUY price and strictly that must be the open.

Just something to think about in the future if you think its important.

(Its actually stuffed up my stop settings for the exercise and I'm not going to change them as its too much work!!--but will next time.)
 
For those interested here is the variable stop EMA formula for Metastock.

Place in the indicator builder

Val:=Input("Periods",1,100,3);
Multi:=Input("Multiplier",0.5,8,2);

TS:=Mov(Mov(Mov(H-Multi*ATR(Val),4,E),4,E),4,E);

If(C<PREV,TS,Max(TS,PREV));

Call it variable stop M/A in the name EXACTLY in lower and upper case as I have here.

Then in Indicator builder the Binary trigger code

If(Fml("variable stop M/A") < Ref(Fml("variable stop M/A"),-2),1,0)
Call it variable EMA trigger.

Display the first indicator ON the chart.
and the second in a window of its own.

Let me know if you have any improvements.
