*Yawn*. Huh wake after a little nap and by the looks of things I may be lagging a bit... haven't checked yet. Time to extract digit then.

5th on leader board now...

Shame I had to get out of oil to give me margin for my reckless £200/pt dow long though

This is a joke. I have over £31k in my account and they won't let me put my stops further away than a £12k loss?

 

[arabianights]

my long let me put stops to complete wipeout, rather handy as a few more ticks and I would have been wiped out already!

Why a week? All accounts get reset to 20,000 tomoz and we start again. Do bad first trade. Hit reset and a have another go.

Guy in lead now is up 150 grand! Well done to him.

You wus Don - I've just reset mine for the 4th time! And the double hard baaastards reset at least 10 times a day. Pity one can't do the same thing with a real account!

I've just entered at 56 - but I doubt I'll be sticking around for long. :cheesy:

 

[UKtradergirl]

The top guy's got almost £155,000- how did he do that?! Imagine if that was a real account- you'd only need to work one or two days a year

 

[Lightning McQueen]

after a fresh injection of capital and some lucky dow trades 57th for me

Nah, just as I thought, didn't like it much in there - a very snooty bunch. So I've decided to reset my account for a 5th time today and keep you lot company at the bottom of the league. I know my place.

I wondered that too UKtg.
My guess is that he's legged into a good trend, adding steadily as his position builds. A good trick if you can get into a solid trend. In the days of the T2W comp', the trick was to find penny shares that quadrupled in a day. I suspect he hasn't done this as I don't think there are any available instruments to trade on this platform that would fit the bill - but I may be wrong.
