Could you clarify the time frame for the contest.......trying to trade with charge being applied doesn't make sense, so buying and holding for the length is critical...so last date is important in trying to 'guess' when events might happen for a particular stock.

There is probably a way to give an overall rank relative to the S&P500. Perhaps an average of percent above or below the S&P500 so if you entered 5 times and beat it by 1% four times and under performed by 4% on the fifth time, you come out to matching the S&P500... can even do the RMS once you have the data so anyone with one really bad contest isn't crushed. probably only make this available to those who have entered 5 times or more.

Elroy, I will go with my same cat and dog, 50% UXG 50% BCON All UXG needs is to keep announcing an increase of their reserves and the prices of Au and Ag to keep plowing ahead. All BCON needs is more pr stating more megawatts are going on line.. And I expect all of the above to happen before the contest ends... Patience pays..:) Thanks again for doing the contest..
