The market was already closed, so I put in the order for the stocks I wanted in my simulator portfolio. I pretended I only have $1,000 for each stock and orders the following number of shares:
Stock | # of Shares |
MMM | 5 |
PG | 11 |
JNJ | 8 |
DIV | 38 |
O | 15 |
EPR | 13 |
LTC | 20 |
STAG | 46 |
There's an overall ranking system in this game. I applaud today's #1 person, who managed to earn $51,935.05 using just $10,000.
Since I placed 8 orders and the commission is $29.95 for each trade (expensive! I am so glad in real life my broker doesn't have this steep of a fee), then I just lost $239.60. Whelp, that will knock my ranking down right off the bat. Let's hope one or both of my strategies will eventually help recoup my losses.
