Traders Laboratory Forex Trading Contest!

Recommended Posts

I started the contest for October. I was concerned that by just hitting the "Repeat" button it may exclude new contestants from joining. So even if you are in the Septber contest you still have to join the October contest.

I wouldn't like to see you miss the contest, Mystic. I am certain others would not object to your continuing participation - particularly since you have no chance

of winning.

 

After all we have ForexTraderX and Obsidian to beat ... and of course myself!

 

Everyone can see that I am a late finisher ... :embarassed: Apparently Bob has already mailed the $100 to me.

 

:cool:any plans on where to spend it?

(Re: "Apparently Bob has already mailed the $100 to me.)

There is no option - the "cheque" arrived this morning, and the "prize" is $100 credit to be spent in Bob's Chinese Imports shop "within 30 days."

 

I'm going to purchase $100 worth of assembled Chinese Lanterns, to take advantage of Bob's "We-post-anywhere-for-free" policy.

 

I get 20% more chucked in for free too, if I order online. :rofl:

 

I have just entered the next contest.

 

Be afraid ... be very afraid!

(you can buy it for $3-$4 i guess)

Less than 2% separate the top three . . .

Looks like we may have a photo finish.

Mystic, can you nominate again for us (me) the correct time

that positions need to be closed?

 

I may not be around (work) and want to grab the most

strategic time, as the commodity I am trading has turned

around and looks like restoring some respect to my account.

 

Let's hope there is time for it to recover before the close of the comp.

One of the things about trading contests is the deadline, and there is

a bit of difficulty in these volatile times in selecting a trade that will

have time to survive a bit of draw-down, and get on with its trend.

 

For this reason I was unable to place the trades for the contest that

I would have preferred. Instead, my own live trading is doing better,

because I am not needing to have it mature by the closing time.

 

Is anyone interested in extending the time to a couple of months,

for future contests? I am not making excuses - but my trading time

frame lends itself to longer term trades, and it would do me good

personally to be able to compete on a slightly extended TF.

 

What a great finish it looks like being :fight:

I was a bit busy for the last couple of days so I did not open any new positions...

Anyway, I will sign up for the new one on saturday after I reset the balance :)

It may be that tomorrow will be too late, Obsidian ... I missed the cut once before because I didn't get my entry in early enough.

 

Perhaps you could open a second a/c and use that - it would be better than missing the cut.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
