Biggest Loser Contestants bought and sold like commodities? (part 3 of 3)


Here’s the proposal: Create a mock futures contract that trades in the weight fluctuations of the final four Biggest Loser contestants. Assume a constant fluctuation of pounds due to normal activities such as exercise and eating. The result: limituponline is now trading Biggest Loser pounds!

Absolutely right, FxScalper! But, like the original LimitUp!, LimitUpOnline! doesn’t do puts and calls. I guess it takes me so long to develop the core functionality that by the time I get to the puts and calls, the technology has changed. In this case, I went from Visual Basic to web-based. No small feat. Enjoy!

…thats easy…just sell some call options.–lol. I remember your software in 98. It was interesting…but I soon just traded fundamentals. Most people are clueless about futures and options…but, I commend you for trying to educate people.
