Stock Exchange Game

Patrick's picture

Many of you probably have participated or still participate in fantasy sports leagues. I've done one or two soccer leagues but in all honesty I don't really ever know teams or players well enough to really have any good results. I found this Virtual Stock Exchange site that allows you to setup a game with other people. In this case, I did a private game for you folks here on Sehti! For those interested, go to:

http://vse.marketwatch.com/Game/Homepage.aspx

Create an account, and then sign up for "SehtiGaming" with the capitalization (EDIT: I HAD said "sehtigame" before and it was supposed to be "SehtiGaming"... if you couldn't find it, that's why...) and the password "superduper". You start out with $150,000 in cash and invest your money anyway you want. The timing of your orders and such are like a trading on a real stock exchange site. You can choose to order as many shares as you want, use order limits and stop orders, and etc.

I know a little about stocks as I did some research when I wanted to figure out how to setup my 401k... but I definitely don't know all the ins and outs. I think it will be interesting to try this out. The game goes from now until May 25 (exactly 120 days). Whoever has the largest dollar amount at the end of that time wins the game! :) So go ahead and join!

I'm in

I started my investment portfolio last night, though since the stock market is closed nothing will really happen until Monday. This should be fun (and edumacational). Good idea Datrick.
