My Thoughts After Using SP Several Days

My Thoughts After Using SocialPicks Several Days

1. The inability to see a position closed automatically at a target price set earlier is a drawback. I hate monitoring stocks. In real world you can put a limit order to close, but not in SP.

2. There appears to be a limit (small number) on how many picks you can enter. I've at least 2 more picks but I cannot enter them.

As a result, I may leave SP if this is taking too much time.

Any work arounds?

the only limit on your picks is in your personal portfolio, and that is restricted only by the amount of funds you chose to start with. I.e. if you chose to start with a mil, and you picked 20 positions at 50k each, you'd have to sell some off to take other picks.
