Step 1 of 5

Budget, roster, and limits

  • Budget: the virtual money each player starts with.
  • Roster size: how many stocks each player picks.
  • Per-stock limit: the most of the budget any one pick can use, so nobody puts everything in one stock.
  • Length: one week, two weeks, or a month, starting at a market open and ending at a close.
