  5. [14:48] <+griffin> it can work
  6. [14:48] <+griffin> you need to find a penny stock with no volume and no sellers
  7. [14:48] <+griffin> come in at 3:59 and start running it up
  8. [14:48] <+griffin> since your whole game is based on closing price
  9. [14:49] <DrFreeman> Hm, that could work.
  10. [14:49] <+griffin> can you buy options for the game?
  11. [14:49] <DrFreeman> yes.
  12. [14:49] <+griffin> oh then you can do it for sure
  13. [14:49] <cromie> Ceres Global AG Corp.
  14. [14:49] <cromie> there you go
  15. [14:49] <cromie> go buy that one freeman
  16. [14:49] <+griffin> you can double your money everday
  17. [14:49] <DrFreeman> ok
  18. [14:49] <+griffin> find options trading at .01/.02 bid/ask and buy 1 contract at .02 EOD
  19. [14:50] <+griffin> will double your position from .01 to .02
  20. [14:50] <cromie> lol griffin that would be hilarious
  21. [14:50] <cromie> 50% over night kid :D
  22. [14:50] <DrFreeman> haha :) 
  23.  
  24. [14:52] <+griffin> you are just artifically inflating the close price to .02
  25.  
  26. [14:53] <+griffin> like right now in your fake game buy all your moneys worth of Dec 5.50 Call @ .01
  27.  
  28. [14:53] <+griffin> then at 3:59:59 this afternoon buy 1 contract at 0.02 in the real market
  29. [14:54] <+griffin> close price of that option will be .02
  30. [14:54] <+griffin> sell in your game at .02
  31. [14:54] <DrFreeman> it would have to be tomorrow, but I see your point
  32. [14:54] <+griffin> well you could buy it today at .01 in the game
  33. [14:54] <+griffin> wait until tommorow 3:59:59
  34. [14:54] <+griffin> buy 1 contract at .02
  35. [14:54] <+griffin> double
  36. [14:54] <DrFreeman> and repeat?
  37. [14:54] <cromie> gotta love manipulating a fake ass game :D
  38. [14:54] <+griffin> sure its probably going to cost your $20
  39. [14:54] <+griffin> everytime
  40. [14:55] <DrFreeman> everytime I buy a contract?
  41. [14:55] <+griffin> and it depends on the mechanics of the game
  42. [14:55] <DrFreeman> you just said $2
  43. [14:55] <+griffin> + commission
  44. [14:55] <cromie> plus commision
  45. [14:55] <DrFreeman> ah.
  46. [14:55] <+griffin> i doubt the game uses bid/ask, just closing price
  47. [14:55] <DrFreeman> yes,  just closing price.
  48. [14:55] <DrFreeman> it's not a sophisticated system.
  49. [14:55] <+griffin> yeah no problem
  50. [14:56] <cromie> lol you can buy GM at .75?
  51. [14:56] <DrFreeman> even then, manipulating could still work?
  52. [14:56] <+griffin> yep
  53. [14:56] <+griffin> because today the dec 5.50 C call will close at .01
  54. [14:56] <+griffin> so you buy now in the fake game
  55. [14:56] <+griffin> sell tommorow in the fake game
  56. [14:56] <+griffin> but buy 1 contract at ask for 0.02 right at market close
  57. [14:57] <+griffin> so tommorow it will close 0.02
  58. [14:57] <+griffin> .return .01 .02
  59. [14:57] <@Trading> The Return rate for 0.01 -> 0.02 is: 100.00%
  60.  
  61. [15:00] <+griffin> also you may not even have to use real money
  62. [15:00] <+griffin> just buy that dec 5.50 C call for .01
  63. [15:00] <+griffin> and sell tommorow
  64. [15:01] <DrFreeman> It can work without artificial inflation?
  65. [15:01] <+griffin> it might just by chance go to .02, last trade will always be .01 so there will be no downside in fake money
