Come On And Open Stock Market...

[anthony]

Hurry up... I want to see what my portfolio does. I've been looking at all different, random, stock types and buying into them. Hoping this whole diversity thing investors talk about pays off and I get some bonus points...

I just have to remember to bail out of everything before going on holidays, as that damn fiscal cliff thing occurs early Jan, of which time I will be away and somehow expect the stock market to plunder downwards in a mass panic at that time.

I guess those around at that time atleast should be able to cleanup on some points...

 

[Rumors]

I am cracking up. My fear is if I opened it up, I would spend more time doing virtual trading than my actual job! I think I will have to pass for now as I am addicted to games of that sort and I would make it my life's goal to have a stock portfolio that looked like Berkshire Hathaway on 2500 trophy points! I love the idea though!! Too cool! I will look forward to reading updates!

EDITED TO SAY: OK, I am suckered in! It looked too fun.

I can't find anything on the TSX, the companies I know are listed on it. But, it's not open....maybe. ?

But, it's not open....maybe. ?

Anthony has said stock trader is using london, US and germany. I think, it is limited.

This all has been mentioned in "how to play" thread. The company you like needs to be on this forum's list.

I can see this game is going to be huge soon. :D Fun!

I thought I read TSX in the how to thingy. Bleh. Meh.. still addicting.

 

[Tanishq]

Oh innordinate. Hear you mate. Sounds you love TSX. ;)

Awesome... because now I have someone to learn from. :coffee: I am purely buying stuff because it looks cool or is doing something stupid right now. Go figure!

I can't find anything on the TSX, the companies I know are listed on it. But, it's not open....maybe. ?

I don't know what TSX is... but the available exchanges are:

NYSE | NASDAQ| NasdaqNM | NasdaqGS | NGM | AMEX | London .L | London .IL | London | LSE | Berlin .BE | Bremen .BM | Dusseldorf .DU | Frankfurt .F | Hamburg .HM | Hanover .HA | Munich .MU | Stuttgart .SG | XETRA .DE

I can see this game is going to be huge soon. :D Fun!

It looked amazingly fun when I first looked at it... well, actually I had no idea what it was. Then someone pointed out it was a game, and I gave it a try and was addicted near instantly at playing with the real stock market, in a pretend environment.

Rumors was the first person that came to mind, being a banker, knowing what would be what in this type of thing. Someone who knows what they're doing can dominate easy enough using real-time exchange.

I got lots of learning to do... because right now I'm like sticking coins into some slot machine in regards to picking what is good stock versus not so good. I tried this whole 'diversity' thing, and bought stuff in all different areas. Hey... I figure Macca's has to be doing something right, considering they just keep on getting bigger and bigger. Fast food is the norm...

I'm just spewing that I will be away for this fiscal cliff stuff... which I suspect the stock market to do its normal massive dive, live I see on TV morning news when something is about to occur... then go back to what it was again in the following weeks. That sounds like a good time to be buying lots... not happy I'm going to miss it.

don't know what TSX

TSX is Canada. So, not available......

I need to learn other markets anyways, this works better than learning by losing real money. Wife will be happy. :woot:

NOW OPEN DAMN YOU MARKET!! OPEN!!
