OK Dil, done. However bring your wallet since the appointment is late morning and you're likely to be expected to buy a round :-)

I can see that mathematically going to be harder to win
in the second month as many are starting from place 1000 or so
after having done terribly last month
and so a 10% gain from that on a recovery of a rubbish trade
puts them near the top

Going to have to win the overall I suppose :-)

Well you could buy the same stock foale. You're right though, the one flaw in the game is that the people who were in a trade as of last night have had their loss on the spread accounted for last month, since the valuations are done on bid for longs and offer for shorts, and the stamp duty too in the case of longs. They do have an advantage over anyone not in a trade and buying the same stock today.

Would it not be fairer and more accurate for the gains in the Monthly charts to be expressed as a percentage of 100,000 we all started with? It would also allow interesting accurate monthly performance comparisons.

I can see the top 20 monthly is ok the top 50 though seems to be
not updated properly


Sorry Ian more requests

Foale; being fixed as we speak. Thanks for pointing this out.

Rupie: The monthly comp. is simply the best peeformer in th emonth be it from a starting point of 100k or more or less. It re-levels the playing field a bit and gives those who had a bad 1st month a chance to win the 2nd months prize if they do well. The overall game position/leagues shows the % gain or loss over the original 100,000 invested.

Top250 Monthly....yes...need all of that to see my entry :-)
Nice one....

Many thanks for reply Bullshare.

Well done Kayak! Hope the real trading as doing as well.. ;-)

Could you show the top 500 - I might have a chance in that. Anyway, shares are for poofs - real men (and women) play the indices and FOREX.

I registered, only I can't remember what as...haven't even got out of the blocks yet :)
How come the girlies get brackets around them, ten four?

They're not brackets they're handcuffs.

so Ian how far down are England on this list overall

If they finish bottom and their is an international stockpicking tournament then the majority of the British team would still be English ... ask Clive Woodward.

Bit of a cock-up. I need to close a MSHL short before going out; but they can't find it... yet I sold 9000 yesterday!

Sorry wrong thread

Maggot,

We will take a look into this,

Ian

Definitely something wrong, the league tables haven't changed since midday...

We have been looking into it.
