Are any of you traders participating in it? I'm in it, pretty far behind though ..trying to catch up.

Am I allowed to post a link to the contest? (I'm a newbie on the forum)

For those who aren't familiar with it, it's a contest that CNBC holds every year I believe. You can't short anything, only go long. But they do allow you to trade some bear etf's.

There are 10 weekly prizes that consist of trips to different vacation spots around the world. But here are the 2 grand prizes:

#1 = $1,000,000
#2 = 2012 Maserati GranTurismo Convertible Sport

If you're in, share your progress! :hurray:
