    Combine movers are going to be INSANE. Can't wait for it.

    The crappy part I think is that the prices only reset the next morning so really everyone's gonna get to see who performs well at the Combine and then they'll buy the guys that do. I'm not sure there's value in being able to predict Combine risers.

    yeah, from here on out, the big jumps won't happen until draft day I would think.
    For the past week and a half I've been playing the market more than I have been the players. I've got a fresh set of faces on a daily basis for the most part. It's hard b/c I'm trying to play it how I think they're rating it daily and how they're evaluating the players rather than how I myself would do it. Then when the draft arrives I'll change it to my own rankings.

    Serious question, are we sure they're not just moving these prices completely randomly?

    They probably are, but there might be a little bit of method to randomness. Seems like there is anyhow.

    I'm guessing random.

    Maybe eventually what they're hoping to do is get popular enough that they can literally start tying the players' prices in with trading activity.

    Yeah there's no real rhyme or reason to this thing. I'm just going to trade it like a day trader. The market is not being set on a day to day basis on fundamentals.

    FRX. Just look for the guy in 8th place. That would be me. :)
    Chris stopped along the way to tie his shoelaces so I'm not sure where he's located ATM.

    They don't keep players at $0, so by nature they have to have regressions to the mean and progressions to the mean occurring daily to maintain proper status quo. Well, except for the players who are actually ascending or descending.

    Are stocks delayed a day? I figured OL would be the biggest movers and a few slightly saw increases.

    Same for Winston I figured everyone would overreact to the news yesterday and sell him but he didn't drop that much.

    Sometimes it does seem like they are delayed a day or two. Guess we'll find out manana if White gets a boost. Amari Cooper runs a great time that should be aiding his draft stock, yet it's gonna drop a smidge. LOL. Like I said, it's very possible to see Amari there at 14. At the moment I'd say it's between Amari & Beasley. Miami will scoop up whichever one is left on the board. But then again, the heavier Beasley could easily shoot up to top 5 once he finishes killing the combine at his position, and it could be Shane Ray or Randy Gregory who end up sliding to 14.

    BTW, #1 in FRX Insiders is up to 15.97M. #10 is at 14.46M. #20 is 14.12M. #50 is at 13.46M.

    start playing more guys who are in the red that day.... as long as they're not in the red b/c they're in the process of dropping. Be selective about it.

    I typically hang on guys I know will rise while moving smaller guys around. Like I bought Shelton day 1 and he net me over 800K, Sold him because I think he reached his ceiling in terms of draft stock.

    He's probably the guy in charge of setting the daily prices. :lol: (well, it makes me feel better to think he is)
    I wanna say he was right at the top last year as well and then took a bit of a dive on draft day, so perhaps there's still hope.

    That suggests he really is a guy that has access to the pricing data ahead of time.

    Maybe he's just showing what a portfolio can possibly do if they were 100% perfect?
