Say, two distinct markets of volitile stocks (prices updated every 10 minuates, with the turns), with a high, but limited number of shares (fill or kill anyone?), advanced finiancal operations (margin and shortselling), and defined opening and closeing times (No tradeing while the market is closed... but then the other market opens, so at all times you can pricipate). This would be in addation to our current, more dosile stock market, and perhaps a futures market based on the public market (if we can convince people to use the thing).

That, to me, is a really good idea......

Yes, but all expantion past the brokerage account is just my dreaming.

I am somewhat afaraid it might be too complicated, like the real market.

We could set it up so that people could pay others to do their trading for them. Just like in real life. Gondor, being able to buy and sell stocks in a short period of time is the whole point of the stock market. That's what people do, buy stocks, wait for the price to go up, and then sell them again. Then repeat.

Not a bad idea Ruddertail.

No. It's random (I think).

It is random, however, we can adjust prieces if we need to.

This isn't the place to talk about that. There was a poll a while back, if you want to ask again, start another poll in GD.

kk i think that if you have to pay for the stocks it would make the game intresting

Well of course you have to pay for stocks. It's not free money, you buy so many stocks, and then you can sell them again later.

I think he meant paying a commission (sp?) or whatever you call it
