That just won't work! Because, if a stock is trading at $1, and moves up 100% to $2 that's a $100 gain. If you have a $10 stock and it moves up 100% that's a $1,000 gain. (based on 100 shares as the contest calls for) The winner should be based on the average % gain total for all 5 of the challengers entries. Stock XX + 10% Stock XY + 10% Stock YY + 30% Stock YZ + 45% Stock ZZ + 55% Average gain: +30% Dollar gain of your portfolio will not be reasonably fair. Happy Investing! KZAP
