hahaha, good point! :whistle:

Here's another bug lol. My Vale do Rio Doce (RIO) changed it's name to VALE and in the game it shows as $0 :lol:, but the stock is on the plus side.

Have you guys checked to see if you still have "Buying Power"? Right now I have $0.00 cash, but have over $500,000 in Buying Power right now.

i don't have any buying power that i can see... i slipped from #7 to #13, and i'm waiting for them to fix that bug.... :lol:

Try this, go make a trade and choose a stock and click go. Afterwards you will see Cash and under that will be your buying power.

ok, there we go.... even MORE borrowed money to spend! heh. over $800k. thanks!

:lol:.

Alright :lol::party:, if my trade goes through today, I'll have 100,000,000 shares of Lehman :rofl:.

Haha- I'm up to 3rd place! :yipi: :party: Go fake stocks, go!

it's like monopoly... you get all excited when someone lands on your park avenue with 8 hotels, lol. then you realize it all has to be put back in the box when you're done. :lol:

Roflcopter

Now how do you think I feel with over $10,000,000.00? Just to think in less then 1yr I made that much with $1,000,000.00 :lol:.

Thank you Mgm for the 41,500

Good one there. It looks like it'll be opening higher today.

Most of you guys did good today. See if you guys still have buying power. I hope to see more people join in.

I just bought a bunch more.

Nice. This game can also show how the rich will always get richer lol. Just wait a couple of years and you'll see how the Richest list on the Forbes will look like.

moving on up......#6

Nice. I got hammered today lol.

i think i just joined. i entered in the password and it took me to the page with the player rankings. it showed 15 people. it isn't letting me make trades, so i am assuming it is the 15min. delay.

Did you set up an account? I only see 15 players still.

i see myself now.

Nice. Most of the guys who have joined are doing very good in the game. I didn't fare so well today.

We are getting hammered today.

man, no kidding. looks like once things pick up, i'm going to have to do some trading....

I'm just going to sit back a wait lol. Today might be another down day.

Goodness, what a day lol.

:surprised: :surprised: :surprised: :surprised: :surprised: :surprised: :OMG::OMG::OMG:

I know....I really thought the market was done with all the selling off, but I was wrong. Investors are still a little afraid. I'm just going to hold on now and hope things pick up again. Good thing it's a game :lol:.

Yeah. Seriously...

I guess my GM (gmgmq) gamble paid off after all. I thought I had gotten in too early, but things are looking alright now.

Again!!!!!!

Does anyone still play this game? :neutral: I'm one of 4 people who have traded in the last month!

I'm still playing. I know some of the guys still might have some buying power. I'll be waiting for some of my stocks to go up.

i'm getting hammered. i watch it everyday, and some days i'll be up 5%, and the next day i'll be down at least that much. just gotta ride it out and see what happens. but i have zero buying power until i get back in the black...

I'm taking a beating myself. Good thing it's just a game :lol:.

I gotta try this for practice for real life. Looks a lot less painful. :)
Been doing OK lately, the whole rally since Mar has been good, but I'm worried that the market is looking to correct and pull down a bit. 2Q is almost up, and IDK how well the earnings will boost things back up. My thought is things will be a bit sobering.

Have to give this a try :)

W00T! I joined and already in 12th place as I haven't lost anything!!!! Up UP UP!

lol

Since I started this game, if I had done exactly what I did, I could've cashed with a nice return. The market right now is a bit complicated. One day you can see a Pharma company gain over 500%, but the next it'll probably drop that much :lol:. A lot of investors now are in it to make a quick profit and cash out. If you know how to surf, you can put that into the stock market now. You will get some good waves and those waves will eventually break and then there will be that one wave that is the biggest from time to time. If one has the real $$$$ to invest right now, there are a lot of good companies that are down 30-70% from their highs so it's a good time to hold some stocks for the long run. If you are in it for a quick profit, do your homework and look into the Pharma sector as any little news regarding new drugs, phases and FDA approvals comes up the stock goes up to the moon, just make sure you cash out in time.

:lol:. Nice.

HA! Up $500 and have flown up to 11th place! Make way in the leaderboards!
lol


Re: Market

I'd be off a lot better if I always did what I meant to do. Unfort I keep trying to hang on for the last extra 10%, or wait too long to move, and I watch the wave pass by. Little making good returns, but the number of I times I would have been better to just stick to my plan rather than get greedy at the last minute.... Idiot. I've almost got the lesson drilled in, but I imagine its gonna take a few more times. ;) Limits are your friend.
