Already looking at adjusting the game next time. I agree that you have to baby sit it as some of my trades haven't gone through either and I am more than a little upset by that fact.

Still, kudos to you for doing this. Once a year isn't often enough.  :D

That happened to me and just a bit ago. I did finally get it to go through but of course the price changed so it was kinda of upsetting.

Making a long term play with WFT. I think it will gain and it's cheap now. Just hope it does it before the game ends. :pray

I just did the same with NAV. Should have sold groupon earlier today.

Good pick. I'm tempted to buy PCAR since the Peterbilt factory is local and I know they have been working. They did cut back a few months ago but production is still steady.

Looks tempting. Just three months ago it was over 45.

Right when they cut production. Long term it's a great investment. Good company that rules the marketshare.

I can't get any buy orders to process. It shows they went thru when I submit, but nothing shows up under orders or transactions.  :furious

Been trying to get GTSO to go through for a day or two now and it just never registers. I don't know why this is happening. I am getting sorta frustrated with it myself to the point where I want to shut the game down early.

1% volume cap.  You can only buy so many shares.  If the volume is 100,000 you can only buy 1,000 shares
