Nobody wants it. I don't want it. But it wouldn't be the same if nobody had it. Without it, there would be no Fastopia. It's a tradition. I'll take one for the team. And I'll play contrarian with Ben's money any day of the week. Dino@FAZ@38.45

I was looking at MVIS all day thinking @ .43, all I needed was 8-10 cents for the win! Lol. Chose the FAZ instead. What's that say about my confidence in mvis? And I actually hold it in my LT account...

good luck with the faz,,tza and tvix....i would be waking up in a cold sweat every two hours if i ever owned them in real life ;D I don't know, I'd be in a cold sweat if I had just stayed buy and hold long for the year. On Nov 29th, I checked where I would be for this year if I had just held onto all my favorite long stocks. (I sold them in Feb when I saw the H&S forming). As of 11/29, I would have been down 48% for the year! (if I had bought these companies on the first trading day of the year) Now granted, these companies have a slightly higher risk/reward, but their definitely not penny stocks and are all popularly traded companies. Companies such as C, PCX, TCK, GM, HGSI, POT, S, and SCCO to name a few. Go back and check your favorite stocks and how they've performed for the year. Buy and hold longs might not be near as well off as the indexes might portray.

huh, i think the key is not to over leverage and to use margin account in moderation. if you are wrong then you have an opportunity to wait it out. I went all in (w/o touching margin) recently on short VIX, long RUSL and FAS -- all three worked against me - I was even down another 20% on these... things changed over time and luckily I was able to close all positions with small profits.. key is I didn't had to close the positions due to margin call when the "portfolio" was down another 20%.... I didn't time the bottom that's the total difference discussion...

If not too late.. PoorHomey@DROP@0.475 PH, pink slip equities are not allowed... i think... I withdrew my entry as I was unable to submit it by 4pm, but fwiw equities quoted via Pinksheets are not "grey market". Grey market securities are not quoted on any exchange. Thanks.

If not too late.. PoorHomey@DROP@0.475 PH, pink slip equities are not allowed... i think... Pinkies are allowed, as long as actively traded with a determinable B/A and your purchase is purchase meets the volume requirement....see below "No illiquid, gray-market, or Bid/Ask impaired stocks where a Bid/Ask is not easily determined. An illiquid stock is one where your $50K order would exceed the average daily volume. ADV must be at least 5X the number of shares you would purchase for the contest. If your trade is determined to be of this nature you will be notified and can make a different trade as long as it's before 4pm."

After reviewing the cross chatter on PEIX, I have decided that Jack's entry will stay even though he attempted to disqualify himself.
This is after careful consideration of ALL PETITIONS filed by ALL CLAIMANTS in the PM system which basically means Sloop wrote to me too and his refusal means more than Jack's attempt to grant.
