2017 Stock Picking Contest

[Vaygor1]

Hi Klid.

Can you please clarify if the Change column in Stocktastic updates regularly (and as such the ranking column updates at the same time)?

1st place as I type is James108. His picks and corresponding increases are
OIC +2.17%
MHJ +11.45%
EVO +12.5%
IFT +6.53%
RBD +3.49%

This works out to an average of +7.226% yet the %age change column says +6.84%


Looking at my current rank of 19 I get:
RYM +3.04%
SUM +1.29%
ALF +13.04%
CDI +7.04%
AIA +6.23%

The average for the above is +6.23% yet the change column says +4.08%

The share price for each stock appears to come up correctly (in real time) when clicking on its ticker code so just curious if I am missing something obvious here or not.
Even though my %age up and down for each stock has changed a lot in the past week, I seem to be stuck at 19th place.

On the 2017 stock picking table, is there any reason why GTK is showing 100% loss? Some of us unfortunates who picked them are showing exaggerated losses for this early in the piece. https://stocktastic.co.nz/

I note that the Stocktastic page has not updated today. Prices are as at sometime yesterday. (actually "Updates hourly. Last updated: Tuesday 24 Jan 2017 - 10:02am")

yeah gentrack is returning as 0 price from Google and then I am trying to divide by zero and that generally doesn't work out too well. Ill do something to deal with that later tonight.

Sorted, back to #1 where I belong. Google's fault -- getting confused thinking that Gentrack is G3 or something.

Lol... it's rigged, I tell you!

Wait to see what happens with RBD benefiting from currency and trump stuff, also once POT start lumping out massive dividends to return money later in the year...

Klid is doing a great job.!
And he is "well positioned."

Changed SLG to FMS but still need to change the two people that have it picked.
I'm going overseas tomorrow for a couple of weeks so hopefully nothing crops up that needs my attention over that time. If it does I'll sort when back.
