Hi JourneyMan... entry details including email address are shared with VectorVest as per the Competition rules, terms and conditions.

Entry to the Comp is free... and you do not need to buy anything from anyone... but most members will take up the VectorVest 60 day trial to gain the extra 100,000 rank points to start the comp with to gain an advantage.. not to mention the advantage of having the VectorVest software working for you throughout the comp helping you pick stocks and sell triggers etc.

UPDATE 6/7/2012 : To be able to win the $10,000, a competitor must take up a VectorVest 60 day free trial exclusive to TopStocks members available now. By taking up this free trial, you gain an extra 100,000 points to compete with.

I am not sure how it works. I entered the competition for fun. Please make it as easy as possible for topstock member... I dont like too much paper works because I am busy with scanning the stock market

Rule number 1 : Do your own research.

Rule number 2 : Read rule number 1

Members.. please note. All members who take up the VectorVest 60 day free trial will receive a bonus 1,000,000 rank points in their rank account at the start of the competition. This will help you compete with Matross who has 120,000 points due to his TopStocks posting history.

If Matross takes up the 60 day trial also.. this will mean he has 200,000 additional rank points at the start of the competition, i.e. 200,000 more rank point 'capital'. He will start with 1.2m rank points which gives him more opportunity to earn profit.

If you do not take up the trial and Matross does.. you may have 200,000 rank points less at the start of the competition. This is equivalent to starting a portfolio with 16.6% less capital.. in order to make profit from.

Note.. the VectorVest 60 day trial is FREE... and has been designed SPECIFICALLY for this competition. It is EXCLUSIVE to TopStocks members. You will only be billed IF you continue with the service beyond the 60 day free period. You can cancel your subscription at any time prior to the 60 days. Note : VectorVest does not share you credit card details with anyone, not even with TopStocks!

You have nothing to lose by taking up the free trial... you can only gain from it due to
1. it actually will help you choose your competition stocks, when to buy them, when to hold and when to sell
2. you gaining an additional 1,000,000 rank points capital to compete with in the competition
3. there is nothing stopping you using the software and the knowledge behind it, in the real market!!!

Mod , The terminology used to describe the method of trading below is called swing trading,(T+3)

I have to get used to the points processing irregularity of not being able to place a sell and buy order at the same time, when there are insufficient availble points and rely on the available points first from a sell ( closing a position)

Although I had insufficient available points to buy a stock I relied first on the available points after placing a sell (closing a position),

If the process was to add the points of a sale first, then there would be points available, however if the process was to calculate the buy order 1st then there is insufficient points available to place a buy order.(open a position)



Don't worry about worry until worry worries you . who cares about the weather as long as we are together

Mod,

I've now learnt how to adapt and close & open multiple positions within T$ points available point scoring, by borrowing against closing points.

Ie, 19,886 available points X 8 @ FMG short($4.620) ( 19,886 x 8 @ $4.620 = $734K) What I should have done yesterday,

Whats matross on about? buggered if I know!FMG last of the big IO miners that has not until today taken a significant SP drop.

Hi Matross.. for the moment, this will work.

But just before the competition starts... the system will limit you to open a trade on a share.. only once for that share for each day.

Mod, none of the orders went through again last night.

To date, I've decided not to join the comp, because I've found it so frustrating when CRON doesn't do its thing, and that is just on a play comp, so if this happened when we were playing for some real rewards, it would be terrible.

Can we have any guarantee that if CRON doesn't pick up the trades that night that they would be manually checked and put through please as I've lost a lot of 'points' on trades entered that haven't been picked up?
Others will no doubt be in the same situation.

Edit: Haha, I'll sound as pedantic as matty soon!

Hi Jughead.. the CRON is working perfectly. All trades that should have gone through last night, did.. including one of yours.

You have two trades pending.. both with the stock SWM. SWM has had no volume on the ASX for the past three days.. hence why these trades have not gone through. As per the Tipping Rules and Guidelines #54, no open or close trade requests will go through if here is no volume for that stock on the ASX real market.

Your SWM trades will stay in pending status until there is volume on the real market.

Hope this helps.

Thanks mod, but no, it was one for the previous night that didn't go through, so I cancelled it yesterday morning before writing the post.
I understood about SWM in trading halt.

Hi Journeyman... thank-you for your post.

JourneyMan --> 1,023 posts = 20,000 bonus points + VectorVest free Trial 100,000 bonus points => TOTAL 1,120,000 points

Matross --> 6,426 posts = 6 * 20,000 bonus points = 120,000pts => TOTAL 1,120,000 points

Note : If Matross takes up the 60 day trial, then he will start the competition with the maximum number of points, i.e. 1,200,000 points.

Hope this helps.

Ok.. thanks Jughead.

Can you remember what the trade was? If you can let me know what it was, for how many, long or short etc. then we may be able to work out why it didn't go through.

Trades won't go through for the following reasons...
1. if the CRON does not run (it has been running well for the last couple of weeks... all bugs in it's running procedure are resolved). It runs at 9:05pm and then again at 10:05pm in case the daily comes in late.
2. if your open trade doesn't have enough rank points to full fill it
3. if there is zero volume on the ASX that day for the stock in question
4. if there is no daily data for the stock in question that day for any other reason (the CROM will only work on stocks who's daily data 'date' field changes from the previous entry)

Not important now mod.
It may have been a no volume day, and I didn't realise they weren't allowed. It was 100,000 RNC on a day it closed at 16.5c so it wasn't going to set the world on fire.

Hi Sergsadag.. my apologies for the delay in coming back to you.

Members need to take up the 60 day specific trial designed for TopStocks.. to be eligible to receive the $10,000.

Hi mod,
"Members need to take up the 60 day specific trial designed for TopStocks.. to be eligible to receive the $10,000."
Did you mean if a member dont take up the VectorVest 60 day trial for this competition will not received $10,000 even if he win the comp?

Hi Sergsadag.. yes, that is correct. If you are the leader at the end of the comp but did not take up the free trial before 20th August 11:59pm Sydney time, then you will not receive the $10,000.

But note... the member who earns the most points and leads this competition on September 20th, will be a 60 day trial subscriber... there is no doubt about it.

Every member who takes up the trial receives a bonus (extra) 1,000,000 points to compete with. 60 day trial subscribers will start with a minimum 2,000,000 points compared to those that only start with 1,000,000 points (i.e. those members who do not take advantage of the trial).

Remember.. the winner is determined on actual points earnt (gained), not % gain. Therefore those who have 2,000,000 points to play with and have consistently positive trades, will earn on average double the amount of points than those that only have 1,000,000 to invest.

hi mod,

sorry for the bother, unsure if I've completed registration properly for bonus and prize. Could u pls confirm $10000 elegibility and bonus points for VV 60 day trial? I signed up with vv trial over weekend.

Also, is there going to be a shortable stocks list for macs? Or is there a downloadable plug-in to view current list?

thanks, looking forward to the comp.

Hello Members...

Thanks for your posts regarding qualification and trial subscription.

VectorVest will confirm competitors who have taken out a Free 60 Day trial (or who currently have a VectorVest subscription) against our records and report back to TopStocks very shortly.

All competitors who take out a free 60 day trial are in the running for the $10,000 prize. Keep a lookout on the Competitor List - TopStocks will update as soon as VectorVest has confirmed.

As you have taken out a 60 day trial - you will qualify for the $10,000 AUD should you win the competition.

Good Luck in the competition! Please feel free to give VectorVest Australia a call toll free on 1800 303 782 if you have any questions on the software or you just want some ideas on how to get the best use out of the software to help you in the competition.

Please note - we will be placing further notices in the VectorVest forum (just below the $10,000 Forum).

Regards,

VectorVest Asia Pacific
