Every trade needs
a reason.

A reader's guide to the in-game stock market: how to read the screen, weigh a tip and place the trade.

Stock chart illustration

01Read the trading screen first

Four pieces of information carry almost the whole interface.

Trading screen illustration
1PriceThe current share price of the stock.
2ChangeHow much it moved since the previous close.
3HoldingsHow many shares you currently own.
4Buy & sellThe two buttons that execute a trade.

02Watch the information

Insider information reaches you through the day — treat it as one input, not an order.

Calls and messages can hint at where a price is heading. Note the tip, check the chart, then decide. The market also has dips you can buy — patience pays more than reflexes.

03From watching to trading

Three small steps keep a trade honest.

01

Watch the info

Price, change, holdings and available cash.
