I was about to click confirm but it automatically took the trade and came up with the following 2 errors.

Warning: Division by zero in /var/www/tradinggame.moneyam.com/classes/ticket.class.php on line 154

Warning: Division by zero in /var/www/tradinggame.moneyam.com/classes/transaction.class.php on line 600

But no damange done

Rebels,

There is no process in place for it to be able to take the trader automatically. I will however pass the error messages onto our tech team.

Having looked at it further since I made that post - it didn't take it after all. I think the automation took place because I was taking too long to confirm my order and rather than going back to the main page I got something else with a OK/Confirm button thinking that it was accepted but nothing happened when I pressed it.

IanT(MoneyAM) - 25 Apr 2005 09:29 - 31 of 162

Rebels,

YOu have a maximum of 30 seconds to accept the price and place the order - it does seem from what you have said that it timed out on you.

However, it shoudl not display an error message at this point so I will get the guys to look into that. Thanks for the update,

Ian

Greystone - 25 Apr 2005 16:32 - 34 of 162

moneyplus - If you click on "View league" on the account page of the game, you can call up the top 50 and the specialist leagues.

This should provide some excellent free entertainment, hats off
to moneyam for this exciting new game.

packman7 - 25 Apr 2005 20:53 - 38 of 162

Ian,out of hours orders you say are purchased at a 08.10 in the morning.Why was my purchases placed out of hours on the 21st not actioned till 12.07 on the 22nd?

Bullshare - 26 Apr 2005 06:39 - 39 of 162

mackem. As long as its listed any market cap.

packman7. We had a small problem on opening with anLSE feed so on that day we had to do it at the first opportunity which was midday. Hopefully it was a one off
