Well yesterday as in Wensday I got most of my money back around $500 but today they had another crash at 3PM (with 1hr left before they closed!!!) so about $300 today. Im currently at 9,300 I believe.. ;)

And if your doing this let me know so I can keep track just like a picture of your portfolio by using print screen.

THis is what it should look like...

I used printscreen then croped out everything else.

If your gunna do this send me a pic similar to that with your stocks but you have to invest all 10,000. As you can see I have 115.10 or something that I can still invest in but thats okay to have that little not in the thosands range by any means.

So lets see how's everyone doing? Anyone beating me?

I originally posted "Wednesday" on there but when I checked up on my ipod I saw I had the wrong day and changed it to "Thusday" ;D
As of today I am at $10,383 ::) I've lost $700 and gained $1000 for a total net gain of $300.

Well, Shane is just off the charts with how great he's doing. I'll post mine from today: I'm getting back my 10,000 -- I've got around 9800.
You started at 10,000. The idea is to accrue more than you started with. Take advantage of the type of stock in the given season. Shane invested in Wal-Mart during the Xmas season -- when better?

We're assuming you mean (fake) dollars, a good thing in the U.S. It's a good thing to gain pounds in the U.K. -- not usually a good thing to do in the U.S. even if it only makes you stocky.
