I have been in GLR.a in this contest for weeks (without any success). GLDR is up on a single buy of 1000 shares at $1.85.. If that means it will be up tomorrow on the TSE then maybe you should buy it in the US today. There is still stock offered at $1.85...

holidays are as much a part of true investing as they are a part of this little contest. No harm done in this case imo.

There are a lot of loopholes in the way the contest is drawn up. for eg... when BI was trading @ .005-.01 for weeks (and weeks and weeks), anybody could have picked it at fridays close on the bid... with the hope that it would close at the ask on the following friday. no price movement for the stock and a 100% gain for the week for the contest. cheap but within the rules.

It's all for fun and the rules are set out to be easy to follow imo. it's up to the individual contestant to decide how they play.

btw... watching kitco and am hoping that i can make some cash back this week on the golds. I averaged down last week. my timing just might be right this time. Good luck to all
