Rupie,

E mail on its way,

Ian

Thanks Ian

dil: ok thanks

Mr Boydell
I've got an itchy nose - could you scratch it please.

Mr mg

FOS: no, you can get one of the wardens or inmates to do that for you !

SOS

There is a problem with AXS. The system thinks the quote is in pence when in fact the price quote is in EUR (despite its London listing)

This_is_me,

Unfortunately, our systems can only deal in sterling, not Euros, so I am afraid this will continue throughout the game.

Ian

I'm not allowed to play....... :(

You should allow non-UK residents to enter on the understanding they are not elegible for any prizes........... :) !!!!! Could put a little "*" next to their name to notify of this.........go on.......you know it makes sense...........

Let PapalPower play.

Shan't!!!

papalpower, considering how well you did last time, email me your choices and i'll go 50-50 with you when we win :))

honest ;)

trying to hold on to slender lead.....

attempting to go with the thought that trading too often will reduce the capital, so might hold onto same stock now till end (of month / april not sure!!)

also agree though that the 60 wait between trades is very annoying, especially when sometimes I might have to place 5-6 trades in the same stock - what is the reason behind it as it does not replicate real life?

sportbilly,

It is an LSE rule, essentially, if there was no delay, people could get live prices as often as they want for their own trading. We have have to put the tyime limit in just to stop it being used for purely getting live quotes.

Ian

Sorry your request cannot be processed as trading is not allowed during market auctions.

What does this mean Ian? Seems to only occur when I try and get a quote for GTL.

GD,

I will get the guys to take a look into it,

Ian

Good going, sportbilly, from one who is languishing in negative territory. I have reorganised my portfolio for month 2 but I suspect your objective should be focussed on month 1 forgetting the next two months. That probably means running the profits but perhaps switching any laggard(s). AZM results on Monday could be interesting! (but that is proably a 50/50 scenario).

sportbilly,

I think you would find that if you tried to place an 5-6 trades in the same stock consecutively with the same broker they'd be complaining to you about market abuse, if indeed they let you trade so quickly in the fist place. Barclays Stockbrokers, for example, will often give you an error message if you try to trade the same stock again online within 1-5 minutes in situations where the Retail Service Providers (RSPs) have closed down the their quoted NMS size to small levels.

It depends on the situation, but the MoneyAM system is, if anything, slightly unrealistic in allowing you to trade this way at all, when in real life with the kind of above NMS orders you're probably putting through you'd be phoning your broker to get a quote from the market makers, quite possibly outside the touch prices/spread.

EWR,

Given that this game favours the brave (or silly!) I have 100% in one stock.....

Kyoto,

I remember having the same experience with Halifax before.....so will take the situation as given !....just having a little rant I guess!!

Ian - Your response re:the 60 second rule read

"It is an LSE rule, essentially, if there was no delay, people could get live prices as often as they want for their own trading. We have have to put the time limit in just to stop it being used for purely getting live quotes."

Could you expand on please as I can not for the life of me see why an exchange whose life blood is from market trading would object to people using a facility to potentially increase the number of trades they make on a real exchange ?

I think it is because of the pricing structure from LSE to MAM and the fact that the LSE has a commodity that they want to make money from (the price information). They will hardly want someone giving it away. MAM will be charged for the data if they give away live price information.
