Well i was very successful on the futures last month, in the two weeks before their payout i was increasing 200-300k nearly every day and then on payday i earned another 3million or so, so overall i earned about 6.5million from the futures. Add to that some general trading of other stocks and futures, and then the level 7 community bonus of 3million and i gained around 12.5million.
Maintaining high increase is difficult, and last month was largely down to good calls on futures. This month i doubt ive gained even 5% as ive only got about 6million worth invested or shorted as ive been a bit inactive and i think there is no margin in the June futures. Generally there is an overestimate which you can take advantage of by shorting, this time June is a 5 week month and not as many people realise this so it is balancing the estimate out, at least in my opinion it is.
@vGInfidel, I believe June monthly ranking will be like this : 1 mrahaju +172.48% 4,152,617.94 +29,125.41 +0.71% 2 vGInfidel +107.32% 24,203,221.28 +125,857.43 +0.52% 3 BishopB +95.49% 2,508,350.48 +38,606.71 +1.56% 4 necron101 +69.09% 2,353,106.93 -5,728.19 -0.24% 5 Sacsquash +56.19% 1,564,842.83 +6,277.27 +0.40%
Can you tell me what is your secret to get 107% networth increase even though your networth is already high at the start of month (around 12 Million DKP) ? I sure can use some pointer on how to maintain high networth increase, especially for the future.
Are the June monthly rankings going to be put up any time soon? As i was away for the last few days of the month and want to know if i held onto my second place position. ;)
@Just_Ben, Ben, can you post statistics on long and short of Diablo 3 PC on the relevant stock page ? I am Curious on how many people trade on that stock.
I thought I give it another try and let my community parser do a run:

Just to let everyone know, the number of accounts that have been created on the simExchange has passed 10,000 - as evidenced by the number of profile pages.
@lstormy10, I posted about a month ago some quotes from an interesting article on prediction markets that was in an issue of WIRED. The entire article is now available freely on their website here - in case anyone is interested.

It appears posting June rankings was forgotten over the US July 4 holiday week. It will be done soon.
