SPNG low of the day is .03. I posted when the "Last" was at .03. I think the bid was .05 and ask was .15. I dunno i just went with it said the price was We're just saying that it'd be impossible to get in on the bid - you have to take what the 'ask' was at - but with SPNG it is impossible to know I think.

I want APWR @ $11.77 too then. Ya know? Good point. Rethink suggests you pick a real time entry DrT de Well, fairness says I have to pick a real time entry that I actually was present for. I'm just too busy today, so I'll let you real traders play and I'll just watch from the sidelines. But, thanks anyway!

Can't believe you outbid my VXX, Ask?!! Though I did consider doing the same to Brosin's APWR... Is that allowed? That's no fun for me - we could then just outbid each other - I like one unique play per person, no repeats, but that's just me - if I'm outvoted I shall disappear and return to the depths of my current capitulative state. If you agree w/me on the unique plays, let Ask stick with his VXX and I'll pick off 4,812 shares of DRV at $10.39 - BB remaining $3.32 I'm not seriously mad Ask, it's just a fun M/B game Hey Mikey....i really did not see your play before I posted....... I would not have done that.......I will re pick or you can...................but I see we are thinking alike....Exalt for you..............GL

It traded at right around that time (within 5 minutes) at .03. My holding went to .03. For me to buy that large of an order would be impossible i understand. The rules didnt state it had to be a realistic volume or where the bid/ask had to be. The price of the stock is what it last sold for. If you guys want to disqualify the spng pick just say so, then i will buy something else b4 market closes. Or i will take .034 or .036 where it was when this debate arose. Let me know please

Let me know please The problem with SPNG, and no the rules did not explicitly lay it out and that's a good thing so we learn for the next contest - is that it has a defective bid/ask which is what we would normally use. In this rare case I'd ask that you pick something with a working spread.

If we could exit/re-enter and what not, it'd be different, but since there's only once entry allowed, I'd say we should make a restriction to one person per play.
