What started out as a small group discussing anything related to investing has grown extremely educational over the last few months.
We have Authors, Financial Advisors, Seasoned investors, Experts in specific fields, and just the average Joe pitching in...
Folks.. we are growing and posters like it. If you are new to investing then this site is for you.
Here is the current link to our BLOG CHAPTER !https://seekingalpha.com/instablog/5038891-interesting-times/2342802-interesting-times-for-all-commodities-and-investments-chapter-37
The chapters continue to advance so this may not be the latest one. Please just look at the bottom of the chapter for the next link !!
As of now we have a small group of investors nervously playing a game. It is ONLY a game but as I have learned that if it is a competition and we do keep standings people take it seriously. I am happy to see this as I am learning while I lose money ( fiat of course, or monopoly money ) lol
But as we progress we are changing rules to make it fairer and more competitive. I have been received messages from all with your ideas and it is your game as well. So please feel free to add whatever thoughts you have. I hope over time other will join as we are still at the beginning stages.
I urge all to post on other articles and blogs what you like about our chapters and challenge in hopes others will either follow or join in the conversation. So keep posting when you trade why you trade for all to see the reasoning. Good luck to all !!
