Credit goes to the FLAT/UP votes! Post your Vote! Notes/Guidelines: 1) For purpose of the spreadsheet record flat is currently based on +/-0.50% or less. Of course, everyone can define flat any way they choose. 2) Up, Flat, or Down must be clearly specified in a post in order to be listed in the spreadsheet, otherwise it'll be assumed that post was not intended to be a part of the official record. 3) Because of the poll expiration at Sunday midnight GMT time zone, (Sunday 4pm PST / 7pm EST) I manually close the poll around 9pm - midnight in PST, or before I go to bed. You may notice the poll says to expire on Monday, but it does not. It will expire on Sunday the date that is in this post.4 pm PST / 7pm EST is just a bit too early and I want to give as much possible time for everyone to get a chance to vote. 4) You may notice that some members have monthly and quarterly statistics in the spreadsheet. I add these based on at the start of the month or quarter taking into account past consistent voter-ship. 5) It's OK to post your vote if you missed the deadline after the poll has expired and if the market has not really moved that much or especially if your late vote is opposite or flat of the S&P futures ATM. It will be up to my discretion and obviously, the more active voters will be given more leeway. 6) Starting and ending points based on official close of the market Friday. 7) The primary goal of this game is to track our performance. You can consider it a contest or as a personal critiquing tool to better ones performance.

voting flat again this week i don't really see a significant move higher from here ... neither am i feeling any major down moves barring some catastrophic event i honestly thought we would see more of a pullback this month, but it looks "correcting through time" is the new "pullback" in this market if we go another month without pulling back at minimum -3% on the SPX, that would tie for the longest stretch in history w/o a -3% pullback i've been in this gig for over a decade now and i cannot not recall a market quite like the one we're witnessing pullbacks are simply nonexistent in this market ... and we're now, what, 9 years into this bull? amazing
hey guys! i was meaning to post this in here as well before i head off for the remainder of this weekend ... but i really would like to see some more participation on these threads ... any ideas how we can get more people in on these things?
Probably would need to get more new members to get higher participation. Would be great if more people know the existence of this forum. I don’t really have any great idea right now except for posting the results on these polls and contests on Twitter, YouTube, or StockTwits, etc. Maybe some people here have some better ideas than mine
