Thanks for the comments.
Harvester,
The objective, from my perspective is to understand differing approaches and the rationale for particular investors. We are never to old to learn. Anyone is at liberty to post real or virtual trades, of course, so there is no obvious need for it to extend the time spent on research. In comparing investment performance an arbitery starting 'pot' is necessary, whether £100K or £1m shouldn't make too much difference.Re timing, no restriction is being put on entry dates, so latecomers will be welcome with the inital £100K pot.
Mohammed,
once 'up and running' ongoing monitoring of performance will be displayed.For me as 'an investor' rather than day trader, 15 days is far too short a time horizon to evaluate performance over. The FTSE monitoring idea is a good one, but could be managed separately from this excercise.
