Trading paper money is good for practice but nothing like trading your hard earned dollars. When your own bankroll is on the line, the emotions that surface cause you to trade in different ways then you would in a simulator. So what if you finished on top of your competition in a stock simulation game? This is where Covestor comes in handy. Covestor is actually a pretty clever little website. It taps into your brokerage account automatically and tracks your performance so that you may compare yourself to other Covestor members. Members are ranked on their performance which can be seen here.
Penny stock niche advocate, Timothy Sykes, is blowing away the competition with his trading abilities. It’s important to note here that the competition creeping up on him are his actual Pennystocking (review of his DVD course coming soon) students further proving that smart, educated trading of penny stocks can be done by ordinary people dedicated enough to spend their due diligence in learning how the niche works.
I highly encourage you to sign up with Covestor. As an incentive, “Covestor will shortly enable individuals to invest money directly alongside your portfolio, rather than in underperforming Mutual Funds. The fees charged for this service will be shared with you.”
My Covestor profile can be seen here. I am not ranked yet as Covestor needs more time to calculate my risk numbers. I heard it will take a couple months for this to happen. Those of you already ranked, maybe you can chime in on how long it took for you to show up on the rankings.
