    Picks after January 30, 2021 will get the entry date closing price and the rest gets January 29, 2020 closing price. Thanks
    Can I pick TSLA short again for Monday? I don't want the 1/29 price, since that's the only day since I picked it that it closed below 800...

      BillyJoe,

      I know you don't like Sears or Sears Holding. In my city, the sixth and last Sears store will be closing after 50 years. I think all 12 Kmart stores are also gone.

        We should get this show on the road. I think February 5, 2021 closing price is fair for everyone.

          So you want to just use Feb 5 closing price for everybody, then? I’m OK with that, but I think we have to lock that in for everybody who has already entered. What if a few stragglers who were unable to access the site show up over the next week or so? Will we give them an exception, or hold them to the 20% penalty?

              Hi Gary,

              I think the site is up and running fine. We have 759 views for the PoTY 2021.

              February 5, 2021 closing price is fine with me. Maybe we should extend the deadline to the end of February 14, 2021 for those that could not log in. They would get the February 12, 2021 closing price. After February 14, 2021 the 20 percent penalty applies. Any thoughts? Thanks

                  That sounds good to me. I think we need to lock it for everyone so far with the Feb 5 closing price. I do think we should allow stragglers in next week with a Feb 12 lock date because I know I still can’t get in without a VPN, so there still may be people that are just assuming the site’s down. After the 14th, I agree that the 20% penalty should apply. Does anyone here know how to reach any of the missing people via email?

                    Ok, that sounds fair.

                    I haven't logged into my email for months. My account was deleted and I lost everyone's email address. Thanks

                      Here we go!




                      Whoa! This is not the same group I know. Many are picking $200 and over stocks. Good Luck.

                          So I'm the only one going short this time? Boy, this win will be a cake-walk for me.

                            Mine is also a $200 stock. It just so happens to trade at $850 right now for some weird reason.

                              Jiesen, I really like your TSLA short pick. That's a bad sign. It's such a good pick something is likely to go terribly wrong. Same thing I thought about bitcoin at 1000.

                                Wow, John Henry. Your AYRO pick took off today like a ballistic missile.
