I’m pleased to announce this year’s winner of the coveted Trading Pimp Award – Teresa Lo. She narrowly edged out Babak and Richard with the judging committee.

The criteria, for this year’s selection, boiled down to one thing. Which ideas from the blogosphere, and Internet, contributed to the bottom line of Mr. White Folks! In other words, who is responsible for putting the most cheddar in the trading account of an up and coming Trading Pimp?

Babak’s market calls have been good, but since my time frame is so short, it doesn’t necessarily translate into mo’ money fo’ me. Although, I must say that Richard’s ideas are currently helping. I’m just not sure if they would be as effective if I hadn’t taken the UTC. Hopefully, next year my game will be strong enough to allow me to give out gifts of the Ultimate Trading Course.

Last year, Ugly and Trader-X both received a $100 cash prize, so they could purchase their own customized pimp cup. The more I thought about that, I couldn’t bring myself to do it again. I’m sure she already sports her own engraved Chalice.

This year I was inspired by Prospectus to polish the brass on a sinking ship. Honestly, the fix was in. The award would be given to anyone who actually asked for it. The only two that stepped up to the plate were Prospectus (the people’s choice) and Eric from Tacoma. Both of these traders will receive a one year’s subscription TASC. I am also notifying Richard that he too will receive the one year sub. He was so close, and once again he didn’t quite make it. However, I have it on good authority that Richard has a strong pimp hand, so I’m sure he’ll get over it. Hopefully, he wins the award before his book comes out.
