The stocks are not doing well at all and I have dropped off the listing. My portfolio on the simulator is now so low in value compared to the other players that my ranking is not applicable.
I guess I was not good at picking the best performing stocks after all. The competition still has a few more months to go so maybe it will get better in time. I just really need to focus on not trading every minute I see a price change because each trade costs money and sometimes I have not earned enough interest to cover the cost of the trade by the time I do it.
Don’t compare yourself to other people. Just compare how you are to how you were. It is possible to cheat on many of the stock simulators, so if you are doing it legit, you won’t do as well.
How do people cheat on stock simulators? Well, if you enter an order after hours, if it uses the price that the stock closed at that day to calculate, then you only buy stocks that go way up after hours, and then you just sell them in the morning for the quick profit.
Thanks for the info. I was feeling really bad to see how many of my stocks were doing badly…but now I think about the cheaters I don’t feel like a bad stock picker.
