      When someone posts their pick after the open is the position figured from the time of post and what the price is at that specific time?

        This POTW is an EOC

        When spike ran a the daytrading contest we had a 0.05% penality (Right Spike?).... This week we'll let it slide... no penality.... Everyone has the same opertunity to make two trades.

        This is an EOC.... Equal Opertunity contest.

            Do you have the time and sales data to cross reference against the time of the post or does everyone just get the opening price regardless of the time they posted their play. It would make a big difference wouldn't it?

              sure would. If I'd get the open regardless of the time of day, I'd wait until about 30 minutes before the close and just pick one of the big gainers of the day, then immediatly close that position and take another position for the rest of the week.
              Buy Low
              Sell High
              STAY FROSTY!

                I have one minute intravals.... So for example: When Mimo100 actually posted he was selling BNT it was 3:47pm..... My data shows the low transaction at 15:47pm (3:47pm) was $17.81 so he's entered as selling BNT @ 17.81 (using my Ameritrade intraday streamer).... Do you show different data?

                If you post premarket the "opening" price is used.

                    I had it at 27.33 but 27.35 is close enough for me. I was just wondering if you had all the later entries in at the prices at the time of their posting. Good work.

                      I hereby disqualify myself from this weeks contest.

                      I'll post a new winning pick next week.

                          I'm the only one that can disqualify you webs. You must stay in the contest.... it's kinda like joining the military dude.

                          I think it's a fine short pick webs. Just a friendly reminder about the volume.... that's all.

                          Remember.... soon I'll be trading these picks with real dollars... YOU ARE THE FREAKIN points leader DUDE!
                          Your pick will get the largest percentage of the portfolio funds over ALLLL the other players.... and you give me a 800 share per day pick?.... See why I questioned it?....

                          If you decide you don't like it.... you are allowed another pick this week. TWO PICKS (one at a time) are now allowed!

                              Hey DMK.... I'm calling your VPHM play a "wash" dude. 7 cents ain't worth worrying about.

                              Now you are on your 2nd and final pick this week. You are still allowed to close the trade at any time.... then you'd be sitting in cash.
