Yes, don't bother making good investing decisions. Just bet it all on the riskiest, most leveraged thing you can find.

How about 50 ER2 contracts? Flip a coin for long or short. Nice thing about play money is there are no margin calls.

If you can trade FX you can buy the JYM7 contract. That's the USD vs Japanese Yen contract. You can buy FX contracts on 0.5% leverage so you should be able to control $20 million worth of Yen or like 2.4 billion Yen at the current (121.60) exchange rate. Just hope ya don't get a margin call. heh

Well I'm not sure what your time period is for this, but I’d suggest looking buying lots of MRVC or RAD. If you can buy options then I'd suggest looking at the March or April GOOG $490 call options or the April AAPL $85 call options.

Or AAPL puts. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I would do March, before next earnings come out.

BTW OP, the Iphone won't even go on sale until after the school year ends.

seriously read the paper and when some company announces a merger buy it etc I did that and always did good....

or once I did really good by just saving old news papers and then selecting ALL my trades in the last week.... cheating? prob but still learned some without having to keep up..
