Bah humbug, had a really good morning, managed to squeeze up to the mid 300's then got greedy, and held onto a couple of stocks which fell late in the day. Am now hoping for a jump in the markets in the morning, what hope do i have?

Thought that if I had a good day and Mouse a bad one, I might have snuck up. Mind you was stomping all over mouseking earlier in the day, and that made me feel mildly good.

Sort of snuck up at the end of the day - much to my surprise! Still hoping for a market bounce tomorrow

Mouse · 30 January 2008

Well that was a good day!

Spent the morning at the museum looking at dinosaur bones, no trading at all in the game and I managed to jump up in the rankings ... now I'm in the top 100, until people start answering the question. Go me!

Freddie, if you're going to try and sneak up on me can I suggest you take the cow bell off first? :

cheers
Mouse pondering what it means if I do better at trading when I'm not at the computer.

NRT is the answer tiges.

tigerboi · 30 January 2008

thx mate,no takers on the tigerboi account then????no catch 50/50 the car

as i have devoted more time to tjcheb now within striking distance cashed out

with the tiger i took a heap of profits on cnp,rio,riv,bhp.cashed up ready to go

if your 150th then its worth a go....send a pm....who knows may snag a 1-2

bagger then your in the top 12....behind tjcheb of couse!!!i had to take my

2 days,just gotta pounce in time...cheers tb....tjcheb.hi to mr cam still

boxing on gamely in the top 100,mouse going ok around the 100-150...tb

mr camouflage · 30 January 2008

Well, I'm a bit worried. My best performing stock in the game (and in real life) has been on a trading halt all week.

Now etrade still show them at their current price, but in the game the share price is shown at half that, making me a $20K loss. (I was up $10K with them in the game)

I'm not worried for the game, but for my real shares. I guess all will be revealed tomorrow when the trading halt is due to end.

Hi Tigerboi

Have been watching this forum with interest and ammusement for about 2 months now. Before I found it I had no idea of what the questions have been and missed heaps of answers only having a stab in the dark. This stratagy placed me in the botom 1% in the early part of the game.(along with no experiance in trading). Since this time have managed to climb into the top 1000, hoping to make the top 500. So far passed 13477 and rated in the top 10 gains last week.

tigerboi · 31 January 2008

still no one want a crack at the finals with tigerboi??????????????

Mouse · 31 January 2008

Not me thanks tigerboi,

That's only about $9000 ahead of me, and still a fair way off the top 10. I figure if I can get from there to the top 10 I can make the $9000 as well. But thanks anyway.

cheers
Mouse

alicemaude · 31 January 2008

todays answer is NRT

Mouse · 31 January 2008

I'm in first ... I'm in first!!!!

For the ASX game, registrations open today. Play starts on the 21st February. asx.com.au for more details for those who are interested.

cheers
Mouse .. ready and registered

mr camouflage · 31 January 2008

Time to concede defeat. It was all downhill after I missed a question a couple of weeks ago. I think if they run this game again my strategy will to not buy any shares and make it to the top 30, then have a crack at the top 10 in the last 2 weeks.

Good luck to those that made it to the finals.

Mikat for the Maserati, good luck mate.

I'll stick with my vintage Nissan/Datsuns.

I'll have to give the asx game a go.

blind freddie · 31 January 2008

I'm out. Made it to the top 500 so am happy. Best wishes to those who will be invited to the finals - hope that we will be able to watch from the sidelines. Never thought that sharemarket trading would make it to blood sport category
