CLAYTON\u2019S PRELIMINARY LIST OF COMPANIES TO POSSIBLY INVEST IN<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the beginning stages of Clayton\u2019s (my mentee’s) investing career, he was brainstorming possible companies that he knew\u00a0of and that he might consider investing in. They are listed below. He also set up a virtual trading account (at WallStreetSurvivor.com) and began buying some of these companies with play money to practice investing.<\/p>\n

You can follow along by brainstorming your own list of companies that you know of. Set up a free virtual account with any website that you like and start practicing investing in these companies.<\/p>\n

WallStreetSurvivor.
\n(Has some limitations that you will see below. Sometimes they limit the amount you can invest in one company \u201cmaximum position size\u201d as you\u2019ll see below. This is usually not the case with a regular trading account. )<\/u><\/p>\n

Signed up<\/p>\n

Some ad for their service\u2026\u201dlimited time offer\u201d trick<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are leagues, and contests\/competitions\u2026<\/p>\n

You can follow other users\u2026 Not sure if you can see their portfolio\u2026 But one guy has increased his by 8000%!<\/p>\n

They give a Practice Portfolio…100k (in play money)<\/p>\n

…Couldn\u2019t buy Volkswagen…Because Frankfurt Exchange?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trying to buy FB with around 50k<\/p>\n

But there are some limits on how many shares I can buy\u2026 first it was 202. Bought 200. Then 83…tried 80\u2026 but mentioned \u201cmaximum position size\u201d of 25k<\/p>\n

So I bought just 10 more to get close to that limit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And 20k of GM\u2026 Just to have a car company…after VW didn\u2019t work and Ford looked iffy\u2026<\/p>\n

Wanting more stocks than in real life since it\u2019s a play place and I need to learn\u2026<\/p>\n

Tried Bayer\u2026 Would totally buy it now…but not possible , maybe because Frankfurt based\u2026<\/p>\n

So Shorted on Amazon\u2026 it\u2019s at it\u2019s highest price ever, and even tho it\u2019s a great company I think, it may fall.\u00a0\u00a0 I would never do this in real life because it\u2019s too risky I think.<\/p>\n

I want to have some money left to do lots of small trades and get experience\u2026 so I\u2019m going to hold off for a bit.<\/p>\n
