I got a couple PMs from some folks who might be interested. I'd like to get about 8-10 people at least, that way we can make it fun. If we don't get that many folks then we may just have to join someone else's game...but it would be nice to have one all to ourselves.
For the peepers who might be reading and thinking about it...or concerned it might be over their heads...essentially how it works is this: You join a customized game, which runs for a set period (I like to do it for a month at a time). Everyone gets a bank of money (I like $100,000.00 as starters) and you then set about buying and selling stocks over the course of that month, using actual stocks, and trading on the same platforms as real-world traders.
The game of course is a simulator, so you don't spend/earn/lose any real money. Trading takes place only during the hours of 9:30 am-4 pm...when the real world stock market is open (market hours). You use whatever research tools you can find to give you an advantage over your competitors (newsletters, charts...etc.), but since this is all about sharing knowledge, if we do play I don't mind sharing those that I already use.
So anyone else want to give it a shot, feel free to PM me...or just respond here. I'll wait a couple days and then we can decide how to proceed.
Oh yeah...it's free to play and you can put in as much time as you like into it, no real demands on your time otherwise.
