Oct 2010 Smarteee Pantsees TK Paper Trading Challenge
Last day of trading in September and I wanted to give any new players a chance
to join the October contest. Back in December 2009, TradeKing member "The Otter
Way" began a Paper Trading Challenge that has grown and now
includes prizes straight from the TradeKing
CEO
himself!
This contest is open to all TK'ers and we are looking to make this grow month after month, so why not join now? Official rules for the contest are posted at the Smarteee Pantsees TradeKing Group, but here are the basics...
Everyone starts with a $10,000 amount of virtual money (NOT real money), makes their picks and sees how much it can grow in one month. The winner currently gets "The Options Play Book", by Brian Overby and ONE free stock trade or repeat winners can skip the book and receive THREE free trades, all generously donated by TradeKing. Thanks BigDog!
While the challenge is more about showing off how well you can identify winners in the market, a nice prize or two certainly doesn't hurt. Check out the current competition here to get a feel for the 'history' of the challenge.
AAPL, NFLX and RIG Calls were the key this month with some big returns on all three. As I cannot win being the contest manager, it will be up to Carlton Banks and Triton to duke it out today for the top spot. Now lets make the roster for October bigger and better and see how many new players we can get on-board. If you have played the contest before or are in the September contest, you will automatically be entered in for October and only need to make sure you get your picks in on time. (7:45am on October 1st)
If you haven't joined yet and would like to take part, please visit the Smarteee Pantsees TradeKing Group here and join the group, then post a message in the Sign Me Up category stating you would like to be in the challenge, submit your picks for October and you're in!
We have 40 members in the group so far and would like to see it get up to 50 players or more. So lets grow this contest and all have some fun and learn as we go.
