My one purchase is doing well

I was trying to figure out what you latched on to. I think I have it figured out.

Well, I guess we will see how my late day gamble plays out. For some reason my early trades didnt go through. I stood to make 30% or so off those.

Thanks.....I seem to be doing everything in reverse on the limits and stops. Can't seem to figure out how it is reading my inputs.

Thankfully it is just a game. I made a lot of moves today, after gaining a few hundred dollars late yesterday. They turned out to bite me. Plus I was not familiar with the limit and stop sells so I got all messed up. Still don't have it figured out but, oh well. It is all a game.

My simple explnation:

Stop = stops your losses. Set a minimum price and if the stock drops to that price, the game automatically sells for you. Handy if your stock is up and you want to sell it before you start losing money.

Limit = limit your profits. Set a maximum price and if the stock reaches that price, the game automatically sells for you. Handy if you think it will peak at a certain point and then immediately drop back down.

Keep in mind you don't have to sell your entire stake in a company when you do this.

That was my plan on day 1. Then decided to use the game to see if I coul learn anything. So far, I have learned I should stay away from stocks!

Honestly I think sports betting is easier.i do both but really like the sports as its not manipulated as much

I can't day trade no time but atleast I'm not red. Staying the course same plan just taking longer than expected.
