I think fund total goes to (near) zero, when they update the system.. try again after the market opens..

some shares seem to bounce up and down quite a lot. may be worth going large in just one share., if get timing ring..
doubt we will will any prizes in first showing
£105k though not bad- 5% up in a couple of weeks, far better than any bank account!

I thought we were given £105,000 to spend but a £100,000 base level. So a 5% increase to start with. I would certainly be happy if First Direct offered that.
I have proved that luck plays a major part in investment, which as you say is usually due to timing. Cityseagull has thrashed me in the league and has outperformed in our real ISAs, as well, with a portfolio grown to 40% greater than mine. The thing is I select for her. Every share I have struggles and her's take off. I have analysed the selection process but cannot find any reasoning. It has now got to the point where I cannot buy any shares in my name that she has in her ISA, in case I break the luck. She has had 3 double in 6 months and Thomas Cook triple.
Luckily what's hers is ours and what I have isn't worth her having and is subsidised by her.

Feb14th- did everyone else's fund completely bottom out, then return to normal?

Yes, mine did.
I don't really understand how the funds work, so I've just stuck with shares. Finished the week in the top 4,400, so I'm happy with that.

I wonder if its some sort of bug in the software, there seems to have been a few, maybe it will sort itself out as it seems to do an update each night just after midnight when the prices change from those at the close.

They are the subscription shares not the ordinary shares. It's not an anomaly, sub shares usually have large bid-offer spreads.
