Trading Idea, June 27: Buy NFLX
|
We’re hooked up with the very smart folks at TradingHistory.com who are providing Survivors with one very good stock trading tip every day.
They scan their enormous historical database of stock prices every day and compare it to patterns that they have observed in the past to make a prediction about one stock. Their accuracy often reaches the 90% level!
It’s really quite elegant and simple. Give it a whirl and then test out their trading ideas with a fantasy stock portfolio!
Maximum Shares to Buy
According to the Wall Street Survivor contest rules, players may not hold a single position that is worth more than $25,000. This creates often annoying error messages on the trade page when you attempt to buy more than the $25k limit rule.
So, some smart Survivors suggested that we build a handy-dandy little button called “Max. Shares” that in one click provides the maximum number of shares you can buy for that security. How about that for progress!
We hope to have this ready in June with a more streamlined trade page. See the mock-up below:
Starter Stock Portfolios
What do you do when you don’t know what stocks to buy?
That question inspired us to develop starter stock portfolios: a selection of stocks pre-selected for you so you don’t have to spend a lot of time researching or asking your buddies for Hot stock tips.
For the new contest starting May 1st, everyone will have the opportunity to select one of 3 starter portfolios after registering: Safe, Balanced and Aggressive. Of course, you can still choose to select your own stocks, if you prefer.
