Hi Simon, I was thinking about this the other day and its maybe something you want to have a think about. Its not gambling but merely pitching all the hot shot traders against each other. Why do we not start a month fixed portfolio trading competition. As a suggestion we make it work as follows. 1. Each person competion contributes R1000 to the fund. Say we have a 1000 participants, thats a million bucks. 2. On your on line share trading platform we have a competition page like a normal equity page. 3. A participant is give a R100k in Monopoly money. You can buy any number of stocks, futures, CFDs etc. The costs are all calculated and it closes you out at R100k. 4. This portfolio gets closed at the close of trading on the 1st day of every month. Your portfolio is locked and cannot be changed. All you can do is to see how you are doing financially like the normal platform. 5. The R1000 is transferred into this account if you want to compete and gets deducted like the normal cash in the account. 6. You then programatically determine the winner on the close of business day of the next month based on the profit in the account. The cycle then starts again. 7. The winners gets maybe 70% of the pool, runner up 20% and the third place 10%. 8. We make this a continuous monthly competition and like I sated if you get a thousand guys to compete, the winner can make R600k of hard cash. What do you think??
