This feels an awful lot like our first contest, which really was during a bearish time for the market.

I just whispered in LNG's ear...."you may become liquefied Elmer's glue" I said to VXX "we can't hope for a market collapse, but all we need to do is win this by $.01" ;D |

Congrats to the winners! I really thought I had a shot at this one, but I got eaten by the squid. Curse you, Goldman Sachs.
Exabi and I both snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Wowee! Congrats Dave,Mark & Maxi!!! I'd get the Fastopian cup if I were you - it starts the day off really great w/ a cuppa!! Note on Clemson's showing: Remember he said the Bull returns on 3/17 for a bounce till 3/28 you may now take off the tinfoil if you so desire  |

 Hey guys, Thanks for all of the congrats and congrats to everyone that traveled the Road To Opex. It was a blast this road was and I didn't think I would get so excited in the last few hours of the trading day. It was a real horse race down the stretch. Special thanks to COSMIC for running the contest. Great Job! Looking forward to VI next quarter. Thanks, DaveTheRave

it really was close - i felt like i had a chance until about 30 minutes to go only! and i thought birthmark was going to put a high bid in real life on TGC to make sure it went up a penny or 2 so that he'd win ;D ;D
first place finish, i "guess" that's exalt worthy LOL
