Tipping Competition for Full CY 2022

[qldfrog]

Good morning everyone,

I know there are members who would still like enter an unofficial "Tipping Competition for Full C/Y 2023" without prize money. I'd certainly would like to have a crack at it, as I've been in a few.

I'm sure @Joe Blow won't mind me running it and I have @peter2's approval already to keep score. I have the spreadsheet up and all ready to go if it gets the tick of approval by Joe.
Big thanks go to: @Joe Blow for the previous Comps, Peter2 for all his efforts over the years and also to our Sponsors in previous years, well done and Thank You, much appreciated .

If ok I'll start up the new thread this afternoon titled "Tipping Competition for Full C/Y 2023"

Thanks @debtfree?

Update coming into the last few trading days of 2022.

The tide has gone out on the lithium stocks leaving @Smurf1976 alone in first position.
The next few days will decide the placings.


@Smurf1976 hasn't been caught bare ar$ed, he's wearing coal colored boardies. (AGL, AMP, CGC, YAL)

Monthly comp was a first for me interesting to see all the choices

am still considering for the monthly

i have an unfortunate quirk of picking a share that jumps BEFORE the monthly comp. starts , so will probably delay my choice a little longer

As I read post #273, the FY2023 tipping comp will be suspended.

Personally think it's a shame. Core business tipping stocks isn't it..

Although can't expect Peter2 to keep maintaining it ad infinitum

 

[divs4ever]

the full year continues as a member effort , for how long , i have no idea even the market may not survive the coming year

the comps are all about friendly , competitive spirit aren't they ??

peter2 may have to share his computer skills with an apprentice or two in the future though

Unofficial 2023 CY Tipping Competition is still going ahead ..... see link below

Full C/Y 2023 Stock Tipping Competition

Welcome to the Unofficial Full CY 2023 Stock Tipping Competition everyone! Yes I know it's a little late but we're going to give the yearly competition another go in 2023. I'll pinch @Joe Blow words with a couple of changes. We will run the Comp as normal but remember there is no prize money...

ASF's core business is providing a platform for discussing ASX-listed stocks and all aspects of trading and investing on financial markets. That is what this community is here for.

Unfortunately competitions don't get people to post more, or otherwise support the site in any way.

 

[Logique2]

OK understood all.

So thinking cap on, and will submit to the unofficial tipping thread 2023 as above. Certainly a challenging year ahead for the tipster!

that is a shame , i think they are an essential training for novices , and useful for testing strategies for those who avoid throwing cash at uncertainties

finding enlightening articles ( on particular shares ) is rather difficult currently ( most would rather promote a market crash or rally )

the resident chartists are the main contributors , currently , lest ( uninformed ) opinions breach the regulations ( from outside the forum )

on the market today it is interesting to note 1 share buy/sell orders proliferate even in sub $1 shares

i wonder if some are testing their HFT software this week

A big Thank You @peter2 for all your time and effort you have put into the Yearly Comp this year and previous ones .
I've pinched some of your ideas and designs of your spreadsheet layouts for the running of next year's Comp, hopefully I can keep up. You certainly deserve a rest from it.

ugly is in the eye of the holder , i filled a part-filled order in ABE , bought into PWR ( which is now in profit ) and more than tripled my EVN holding

CONGRATULATIONS to the winner and the placegetters ( and the fourth )

and nice work Colm Doc

eagle eyed folks might notice i picked EVN again this year , i had so much fun that i am back for more ( buying CHEAP )

 

[So_Cynical]

16th place finish for me, at least i beat the index - Thanks Peter and Joe for running the comp.

 

[Joe Blow]

Apologies all, but due to some unexpected circumstances I will have to delay the official announcement of the winners of the 2022 FY competition until tomorrow.

Are you trying to say I'm still in with a chance? ?

Sounds like ......

Your not allowed a coffee break, drink coffee in your own time.

You can’t chat round the water cooler for 5 minutes to interact with your work colleagues to build work relationships.

Your telephone support, your not allowed to smile because you should be using those calories to service your customers.

Big brother is watching you, anything that is not related to earning revenue is strictly prohibited.

... really @ Joe Blow ????

Are we only here as a source of email addresses for your marketing your sponsors ??

A very disappointing post by yourself in my meagre opinion.

Ps feel free to ban me from this forum/ website for my comment. There are plenty of internet communities that share ideas and have fun at the sane time, that don’t result in insidious marketing bumf in my email inbox.

Congrats to Smurf1976 - all sobre picks just like his posts.
Special mention to Colm Doc - out of the running but the only contestant to pick 4 greens.
Pretty appalling performances by most of us - 4 reds for me, matching my real $ purchases on the ASX

I have no problem with coffee breaks, nor chats around the water cooler. I also have no problem with competitions, but ASF is not a stock tipping competition website.

My post that you quoted was responding to this remark: "Core business tipping stocks isn't it"

No, the core business of ASF is not tipping stocks. The core business of any business is making a profit. Businesses that don't make a profit for an extended period of time go broke; a fact any casual observer of ASX-listed companies would be familiar with.

ASF has run a monthly competition for almost 19 years. Anybody here can run a competition whenever they want. You can run one if you like, just start the thread, set out the rules and invite entries. The yearly competition involves a lot of volunteer labour to run. Imagine manually updating hundreds of individual entries each month. I have some idea of the kind of labour involved as the monthly competition takes me several hours to set up each month.

The bottom line, as I said in my post, is that competitions do not increase levels of posting nor benefit the site in any tangible way. Yes, people like entering them but ASF is not a stock tipping site. I honestly don't blame @Logique2 for thinking that ASF was a stock tipping site, because so many stock tipping competitions are run here.

But competitions are not why ASF is here. ASF is here for hosting discussion and debate relating to ASX-listed stocks and trading and investing. It is also here to generate revenue to cover outgoing expenses and hopefully eek out a profit. That is getting harder and harder to do every year, so much so that ASF now has no employees. It is entirely volunteer run, me included. So sometimes changes need to be made.

I don't ban people for expressing dissenting views but if you have a problem with revenue generation through advertising you can unsubscribe here.
