After a few tries I got this: You beat the index, that's pretty rare! Try again to see if you can repeat that.
Beat it at over $68k but only because I remembered when to sell and buy. I would have lost miserably by trying to time the market as you know with my CML. Could have made a cool R12M if I had just stayed in.

Okay so now the Turbo challenge has a leaderboard too, and guess what, I'm in the lead! https://theinvestorchallenge.com/com_stats_turbo.php

 Such a cool game. Much like FX scalping. :TU:

Patrick, how about a little test? Would you be able to throw a MACD indicator on there. Say 3 (Fast EMA), 9 (Slow EMA), 21 (Signal Line). Would be interested to see how performance improves, or not...

No problem with that, but I'm going to have to go and figure out what a MACD is now :)

A quarter pounder or technical indicator, can go both ways – you choose. ;)

Haha, the first is far easier to include on the chart. Maybe not quite as useful.

With the game being this fast, I'm pretty sure performance will drop. If you do add any indicators, I think the best tool will be the off button on the indicators haha

Quick question: Money Market Unit Trust fund yield/distribution, is it considered interest? Or dividends?

@stefan, I responded to your email query but if anyone else is wondering, I use either RandSwiss or ClickFX to move funds offshore. Stay a million km away from banks when doing that, they'll charge you three times what you should be paying.

This graph represents the timeframe from January 1871 to January 1891. Is that right ?
