Competition Results- Day One

[ChartMan]

Well ! What a day!We gotta have a laugh at some of these highlights.Biggest one has to be Day Raider- he's got his picks the wrong way round! His long is goin down, and his Short is going up.(hehe).Poor old Gordon! he's given away a 2nd place by wrongly selecting Short instead of long!
Y2K would be winner of Shorts (-4.2%) but his selection QSP he had as a Long....as did Nipper with CML....

Longs:
Congrats to Cigar in 1st palce with 11.76%, dropping from 14% or so during the day. 2nd place is Uncle with WMG @ 5.18%, and third is yours truly ChartMan with CAt @ 3.36%

Shorts:
1st is that man Uncle again with PIZ @ -3.52%
2nd is Sefty with MONI @ - 3.57%
3rd is Darth Trader and Titus-UK with BLM @ - 1.45%

So here's the list- sorry if it's not too informative- maybe tomorrow..

PS best overall by a long way is Uncle with both his picks the right way round, AND in the top 3.Well done!
Roll on tomorrow, when my CAT will fly away...


There is a glaring error in the calc. for EPF
10p-10.5p = +5% sorry to Waldorf for that- moves him to 4th place...

Cigar- please confirm if you are closing ARE, or letting it run.

I'll sell on Monday. Never been in profit before in a competion so I'll enjoy the experience.

One slight thought on the rules. Using Mondays opening price.. penalises a share that gaps up on Monday morning from Fridays close.

all good fun.

Waldorf, You're absolutely right. I never was much good at maths or excel.I did tell them.....Keep your eyes on it and let me know if it's wrong again.....Put's you up a few notches eh?
Don't worry about opening prices, hopefully it'll come out in the wash and we wont have to worry about 1/4 p or so, because you'll be so far ahead of the rest.......
