Price fluctuations like that don't really affect the game or the data too much as they are not major stocks, but they do generate interest
in the game and players that can get more H$ that way...Smaller traders...well, then they can have a greater say in the larger stocks. It is tough to play this game without $50m...now with 100k in shares...100m would be nice. So players that are going to play and have an impact on stock prices, this actually is a good resource for them to build their portfolio. But that is part of the glass is half full side. I understand your position, I think Antibody has stated his. You have given new information that the IPO's now behave differently. That information does not move Antibody to look into changing the way stocks move.
Ok, back to my initial statement...price changes like the one you mentioned DO affect the game...but I think it is a positive and generates cash flow and interest where there was none before.
Question about LBSLD Mar 24, 10:21
I'm sorry but you're trying to use "logic" to figure out something that's illogical. Mar 24, 10:24
Only shares traded today affect the price, not shares held yesterday. Just like the real world, secrestalker. {nm} Mar 24, 10:25
Those trades are just happening because the stock moved a tick up at reset. Does the real stock market behave that way, too? Mar 24, 10:31
that horse you're beating is dead {nm} Mar 24, 10:32
I think I saw it moved so I better make sure! :) {nm} Mar 24, 10:34
They shoot horses, don't they? {nm} Mar 24, 10:44
Mmmm....horsemeat and velveeta sandwiches.... {nm} Mar 24, 10:49
LOL...trying to figure out which is worse...velveeta or horsemeat... {nm} Mar 24, 10:56
velveeta {nm} Mar 24, 11:01
Yes. It's called daytrading. The first trade also ticks the price in the real world. {nm} Mar 24, 10:35
But you have created a system that allows easier market manipulation by those who are prone to do it anyway Mar 24, 10:38
so, if the first trade doesn't move the price, which one should? Mar 24, 10:40
Volatility should be set based on the stock's price, just as it was before. Mar 24, 10:49
(And believe me, I have far better things to be doing with my time than repeatedly pointing out what should be obvious.) Mar 24, 10:53
There is difference in volatility based on the stock's price. {nm} Mar 24, 10:53
A $2 stock going up more than twice its original price after dropping 65 cents in its first day is not "minor" {nm} Mar 24, 10:59
Price fluctuations like that don't really affect the game or the data too much as they are not major stocks, but they do generate interest Mar 24, 14:41
Secret is making a fair point Mar 24, 11:13
Catzan makes a good point too Mar 24, 11:44
Honestly, not complaining Mar 24, 12:26
