DCM BlueLake Portfolio Competition

The DCM BlueLake Portfolio Competition is a sophisticated and challenging stock market simulator operating on real ASX300 data. The Competition offers you the unique and exhilarating opportunity to experience the life of an equities trader for eight weeks from March 28, with the incentives of career and networking opportunities as well as great cash prizes!

Upon registration, participants are provided with a virtual $200,000 in their own simulated stock trading account with which they can trade shares from the ASX300. An option exists to borrow an additional $50,000. What you do with your simulated stock trading account is completely up to you; there are no restrictions on the frequency of buying and selling – trade as often as you like. The DCM BlueLake Portfolio Competition is the first TradingPlaces competition with a mobile-friendly site for greater access, allowing you to trade from anywhere!

Registering for the Competition provides you with the opportunity to compete against not only your friends and classmates using our ‘My Group’ function, but also other students from over 39 universities across Australia. You can create stock watch lists and also keep tabs on competitor portfolios!

The Competition features continually updated market prices to ensure that you always know the true worth of your portfolio, and also provides weekly newsletters containing Competition News, a Weekly Quiz and interesting Competition/Market Statistics.

Whether you’re an experienced trader or new to the market, the 2011 DCM BlueLake Portfolio Competition is a great and unique opportunity to gain trading and investment experience on the ASX300.
If real-life stock market trading experience isn’t incentive enough, check out our massive cash prize pool of $20,000! The prize pool will be split as follows:
$7,000 for the winner;
$4,500 for 2nd;
$2,200 for 3rd; and
$900 each for 4th – 10th place winners.

The Competition is free to enter and open to all undergraduate students with an ‘.edu.au’ email address.
