NEW GAME - PunkTrader

A stock trading game that will allow you to test your trading skills on real historical stock market price movements. PunkTrader will randomly pick one of the 20 most actively traded stocks and take you to 9:30 am Wall-Street time at the beginning of a random trading day within the last 5 years.

Once the game starts, you will battle the price movements of the stock by buying and selling shares at will, and your sole objective is to make a profit. To do that, you will not only use your keen predictive trader eye, but also a few assisting indicators included in the game.

Can you beat the markets consistently? Can you turn a profit over and over? Can you get better with practice? PunkTrader will let you know if you are cut-out for a career as a full-time trader.
