{quote} I think the competition should stand as it is. Anyone who has a great week through "Gambling" is bound to come unstuck eventually. If you would like to run a separate Long term contest, I for one would would participate in both. How about a 3 or 6 month contest.
I agree, this is a specific trading competition with a certain set of rules.

You can "game" the system by playing fast and loose but that is true of most trading competitions. I think it is the nature of the game though. If you want to win, trade in such a way that you will either come in first or last, I realized that last week going into Friday when I lost my lead (I had a meager +5% return) .

It would be cool to get another competition started that is longer- term. Something where there is a winner every month but a reigning king of the hill for life-to-date % return as well. In order to qualify for the "LTD king" you would have to stay active though (similar to a heavy-weight belt holder in boxing or UFC) and risk a certain amount of your account each month trading actively.

Thanks ET for your suggestion.

Just before 8pm I opened a B position, which was pure gamble AND with the idea to get the hell out of the trade IF XAU would mak a free fall.

Well I was in the right direction and stepped out @10% profits for the day. I left greed alone.....

I placed a B limit order @ 1350, now the pair consolidates of course....

The 1350 order was hit and I do not have the time to monitor this trade, as I placed 25% of equity. So I stepped out and close shop for tonight.

See you to morrow

Smart move, I took my gold profits as well. Played FOMC and it worked out although there will still be much ground to make up if we are to win this competition.. check out dweb's stats

All skill.

It's not like I just had an inkling gold would go higher, feebly executed the trades after fumbling around with MT4 for 10 minutes, couldn't figure out how to enter in a stop, and then forgot about the account. Definitely not the case.
