    Best $/€/£ return in a week challenge

    Anyone up for it?

    Since the stock market crash thread seems to full of day traders I thought against my better judgement I should give it a bash. Monday money until Friday tally. One can use any asset class they like.

    Rules:

    1) Doesn't matter what the speculation is as long as it is can be tracked on a major exchange.

    2) It matters not what day of the week the speculation begins as long as profits or losses can be realised by Friday.

    3) Only one asset per weekly challenge.

    4) Profits or losses realised in a privately owned central bank currency.

    5) It is just a game, tell your head.

          Buy Class A drugs. If you get caught selling them for a higher price, we get a 20 year holiday. What's not to like...?

              If he gets a 20 year holiday, we can all be winners, just like a Russian school sports day. Actually, it's just like a British school sports day. Oh, goodness, how far we have fallen...

                  Then it is time for you to bring your charitable services to those poorer parts of the world where education and good food eluded them.

                  Fancy a pilgrimage to Blackpool?
