I'm a trader confused. Where's the little guy that runs around collecting the gold bars ?

You may need more instructions if this is going to be a big brainweave.

There's a game called Day Trader that's like this for PalmOS, except you have 6 choices of stock on screen at the same time. It's super frantic and also has a rule that if a share gets to 100$, then the stocks are split back to 50$ (basically your stock doubles and the price goes back down to 50).

You play games for either 1, 3 or 5 years and one second is a day.

It's really cool and your game here seems like a good start for that more hectic game. This one feels like fishing...lots of waiting. However, I suppose that's closer to how stock markets really work :P

Thanks for your idea hseiken, I don't know "Day Trader" before.

It's a highly obscure game. But basically the screen has 6 stock tickers at the same time. Also stocks can go bust. If a stock goes bust, a new stock is introduced starting at 50$.
