2+2 Stock Trading Competition
Let's set one of these up and see how the 2+2ers do trading. There is little doubt winning poker and winning trading are positively correlated.
I'd like to see somethnig structured in at least a 4-month timeframe so the buy-the-breakout, sell-the-breakdown types can't just jump in and get lucky. I also want to be able to go short as well as long, with no leverage. No options. Just pure long or short stock. Who wants to take participate in this?

Count me in. However, I've used the Virtual Stock Exchange website for a previous competition and I don't recommend it. Perhaps they've changed since then, but they had some serious issues such as the ability to short stocks that are about to split 2:1 resulted in a guaranteed 50% gain.

Re: 2+2 Stock Trading Competition
Ok who can decsribe a better site for hosting this than www.marketwatch.com?
Let's pick the right platform to host this. If you have some experience with marketwatch and/or another site to host this, please speak up and we'll get some consensus going here and then pull the trigger on setting this up. As of today Marketwatch looks like the host. We are looking for at least a 3-month timeframe, long and short stock and ETFs only, with no margin, mutual funds or options. Also if others have ideas on how to promote this more broadly on 2+2 for max participants, let's discuss that also. |
