Stock Trading

Buying stocks

There are two ways that you can purchase stocks: through the stock market, or by trading directly with another player. The latter is very simple, and is accomplished through the trade system.

The stock market can be accessed from the north side of the city. Clicking this link will take you to a page with lists all of the stocks in the Torn City Stock Exchange, along with each stock’s current price, the price change over the last 24 hours, the percentage of change, and a small graph showing the price over the last 24 hours. The price change and percent change are color coded, with rising stocks’ values printed in green, stable values in yellow, and falling values in red.

Clicking on either the logo or graph of a stock takes you to that stock’s profile. Profiles contain a lot of information about the stock:

  • A description of the company that is offering the stock
  • What the performance of the stock is based upon
  • What benefits are available, and how many shares are required to receive the benefit
  • Acronym
  • Director
  • Forecast
  • Demand
  • Current price
  • Market cap
  • Total shares
  • Shares for sale
  • Graphs of the stock’s performance
  • Price changes in the past 24 hours

At the bottom of the profile is a form for purchasing this stock, where you can enter either the number of shares or dollar amount that you want to invest.
