Stoked .... i`m in the top 100 out of 11632 after the first day but the way the markets are i could be 10000 tomorrow .Talk about a juggling act, out with the calculator to maximise the 20 % holding.Think i bought in too early on one but tomorrow is another day.

Good luck players and may the luckiest player win.

the game is the Biggest BS ever!
how can you double your money in just 3 days! the game started on monday with $100,000 cash account, and we had to choose stocks from ASX300 and only 20% of our money in each stock.
I just dont get it. the top guy has $230,000

Hi,

The top guy is up to $294,863 now. They must be refering a lot of people .. or email addresses. I managed to refer one person, and all you need is an email addy, and the person doesn't have to play they just have to register.

I'm currently in 1958th position, but if I had have answered todays question right I would be in 275th place.

cheers

Mousie ... todays question is ; what is the ASX code for Fosters? (sshhh, don`t tell anyone the answer )

I can`t believe that player has almost 300 k. I`m in the top 25 but getting overrun by these massive high rollers I don`t know of any ASX 300 stock that have doubled since Monday All a bit suspicious.

Thanks Wysiwyg (interesting nick by the way!).

Considering how easy it is to "refer" someone and gain points, I suspect it would be possible to just sit at the computer all day and make up hotmail email addys and "refer" each of them for $1000. Is there any limit on the number of "people" that you can refer?

I'm up to 615th place with that answer, and a massive $123,564.78

cheers
Mouse .. wishing she had that much real money!

** editted to add, I just looked it up and there is no limit on the number of people you can refer to get points.

someone is posting the quiz answers on this blog:

http://tradingmattersquiz.blogspot.com/

i think he uses multiple accounts to guess the answers until he finds the correct one. there is also an interesting blog following the competition:

http://tradingmatterschallenge.blogspot.com

Thanks for that Jeff, it will save me bugging people here everyday for the answers .. although. I was almost prepared to start bribing people for the answers

Interesting, at the moment there are 9205 people sitting on $100,000 in the game. It must be demoralising for the people who have tried to trade and made a loss to be in position 15755 or lower.

cheers

Lol, todays question is ..... what is the ASX code for Mirvac Group? (i`ll give a hint ... the first letter is the thirteenth letter of the english alphabet )

Good to see those 300 k queue jumpers get shafted.

Well i've managed to guess the last two answers correctly. My girlfriend is competing in the challenge, i'm just giving her idea on stocks and she's picking them.

With no access to CNBC and the blogster not updating his blog i never know the quiz questions.

Anyone still playing this?

Cheers,
