  • Basic rules
    • With a starting fund of $500, grow your profits through stock trading.
      • Buy stocks while they’re low.
      • Sell stocks when they’re high.
    • Time your purchases and sales during the daily price fluctuations.
      • A good rule of thumb is to buy below $50 & buy more aggressively as it falls further from there & to sell above $50 and sell more aggressively as it rises significantly above $50.
      • When you have a lot of money and few shares you can be more aggressive with buying.
      • When you have a lot of shares but limited cash you can be more aggressive with selling.
      • You can only buy or sell a single share at a time, so if you have over 100 shares you really need to start liquidating the position with a couple days left as you do not get credit for any securities you are holding at the end of the 30-day period.
    • Keep playing for 30 days. The game over screen gives you the following detains.
      • Play again and see if you can make more money.
      • You can share your results to Twitter.
  • Price graphs & changes
    • The price graph has a moving line on it, however that simulation does not neatly line up with the share prices, so it is better to keep an eye on the share price rather than the chart.
    • The price does not move on any sort of simulated news stream or market behavior, but entirely randomly in either direction. Share prices can spike or crash multiple times in the same day.
  • Strategy
    • Much like in real life, trading in this game comes with risk if you don’t time it just right.
      • The fluctuations in this game are erratic (points for realism). When things are going well, you’ll have to act fast.
      • Don’t wait too long to sell when prices are rising.
      • If you miss your chance to capitalize before the prices peak, wait out for the next time that the prices are right.
    • This sounds obvious, but buy really low and sell really high.
      • Do not buy when the day immediately begins. On the first day the stock prices always start off at $50. At most, you can get a profit of $50 (assuming you sell at $100).
      • The best time to buy a lot of shares at once is when the prices drop really, really low.
        • The ideal time to buy is the stocks are trading around $30 and lower. Buying at $30 yields a profit of $70 when selling at $100. If you can buy at $30 and sell at $60 you double your money on those trades & can then try to establish another position with those profits.
        • See if you can buy a lot of stocks when the price goes to $20 and lower. This guarantees a higher profit, especially if you sell them above $60, as you’ll triple your money.
      • When the prices are approach $90 to $100 sell aggressively.
      • Try to sell when the stock prices are more than twice your buying price. If the prices are middling, see if you can hold onto the stocks until prices are more favorable.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for players who like idle clicker games.
  • The game has no adult themed content.
