COOL!! I want FNSR for next week but not short.

I'll take URNZ again next week - not short - as I should have done this week!
FNSR is a good pick and I was going to take it but you beat me to it!

I don't think my URNZ qualifies! I should have put $2 as the entry, not open.

The qualifying volume is 100,000 right? I was just wondering because it seems a couple were under 100k today (oer above). Nice call Clavocat. Congrats.

The qualifying volume rule applies to the 3 month average per Yahoo as of the Friday close of the contest start.
