I'm crashing and burning, crashing and burning!!!
I just found out I lost over 10% of my 401(k) last month - I don't need a fake stock market game to lose money. Go me.

I did an extra 0, whoops!
Cash -44640.00
Can't sell until tomorrow which is annoying. How do you leave a contest? Just going to create a new account and don't want this account in the group now obviously!

- first make a list of the stocks you want to buy
- calculate percentages for each stock
- calculate how much of the $100,00 you want to actually spend (I chose $90,000)
- invest in the proper number of shares for each stock

I'm not a total retard I just did an extra 0 from 50 to 500 - which is kind of a major jump. I've already created a new account and invested in everything I planned on.

Don't worry about it for now. My extra 0 paid off putting me first. I'm not trading from that account now (I'm trading from KFlanigan now) but I am curious to see how it goes to leave it for now - thanks.Runs_with_sciss0rs wrote:

You are basically entering a contract to purchase shares at a future time, betting on the price of the stock to go down. You basically borrow a stock and sell it with the condition that you will buy it at a later date and reimburse the borrower. You are hoping that the stock goes down lower than what you borrowed it for when you initially sold it, so that when you reimburse the borrower you are paying less back.TheAussieReaper wrote:
