It was doing great yesterday, I should have went with my gut, and sold it. With my luck I knew it wouldn't do good 2 days in a row. But like an idiot I listened to my co-worker (Aahze, he is also in the game), and didn't sell.

HAHAHA, that's probably why he told you not to sell, he wants to beat you!

Yeah he just said that his only goal in this game is to beat me. So much for taking his advice.

Hopefully, my strategy pays off...even if I don't win, a top 10 finish would be nice.

So I feel like dumping into google after today's drop. They'll probably recover ~5% over the weekend.

Yeah Thats exactly what I did when I saw it this morning.

This is turning out like the last time I did this - the folks on top have one or two performing stocks, and that's it. Seems like a risky investment strategy, but since I suppose this is short term maybe that's the only way to pay off.

Today is a rough day - if not for my one purchase earlier this morning I'd be fully in the red. (Nvidia is my one green light, their earnings report made them a buy)

Also bailed out of Exxon, made a fat $7.00 on that.

Actually, I don't think that counts commission of 9.95, so I dropped $2.95 on that garbage!

Oh well - a red day means it is time to go bargain hunting!

You actually get charged the $9.95 commission on every buy and sell. So if you don't sell a stock that is up by at least $20, you are losing money.
