I have set up another trading simulator for September - 1st prize, 2nd and 3rd prizes are trading books. The first prize winner will also have his win displayed under his name in the forum.

Once you join, you won't have to rejoin every month like before, I'll just reset the contest at the end of every month back to the $100,000 for everyone.

If you already played in previous competitions, you already have an account and your can join the August contest with the same username and password by going here (http://vse.marketwatch.com/Game/StartViewGame.aspx?id=CramersMadMoneySim). If you have forgotton the game password, which you need to join the June contest, just email me and I will send it to you. (http://www.cramersmadmoney.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=1)

If you are new to the simulator, you can join at anytime up. This thread will be used to discuss the game and post updates on the standings.

You start with $100,000 and you can trade stocks long or short. Whoever has the highest amount at the close of trading on September 28, 2007 wins.

The trading simulator/contest is open only to registered members of this forum. (Registering is free!) (http://www.cramersmadmoney.com/register.php)

Send me a private message (http://www.cramersmadmoney.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=1) and I will send you the link and password for your free sign up.

Hi Thierry. Do you control the stipulations in the virtual trader...ie the minimum stock price? I often trade stocks that are between 50 cents and $2.00. Not exactly penny junk, but just not with a share price above 2 bucks. I see the point of limiting it to $2.00 and over so people actually have to pick good stocks and not just gamble on penny scams, but is there any way it could be lowered to 50 cents or something?

Nope, the site controls that to prevent any absurd gains made by penny stocks; limit is still $2.00+
