It does not allow me to buy decimals, only round numbers.

Whats your device and ios version number? I just tried buying 0.1btc and 0.05btc and it worked fine on my device.

iphone 4
ios 6.0.1

so what happens when you buy 0.1 btc? what shows up in the notification after?

It just tells me you bought 0 bitcoin with $0,00

The same happens if I try to buy 1,XX ; 2,XX ; etc

which country are you from and what language is your iphone set to?

Yes, but I can only use ","

I'm from Spain, using Spanish.

PD: I also see:

- My USD balance: 500,76
- My net worth: 10,267

But current mtgox price is in $

o ok I see the problem. I will change my device to spanish to try to fix the problem. Unfortunately it probably won't reach the app store for 2 weeks because I just submitted the last update yesterday and it will take 1 week for them to approve each update.


No problem, I can survive just buying round numers until it is fixed Smiley

Well, your decimals are commas.  Wink

Needs localization to account for, I'd guess.

Update:

Last night I pushed some new features to Apple. The app will have:

- Price chart and volume of the day

- Buy sell spread

- Transaction fee.

It should take about 1 week for the app to be approved so stay tuned.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending
Great idea, good way for people to test out their trading skills without risking their money.

Unfortunately I do not have any iDevices to test it out.

Eight days after the app Bitcoin Trading Game (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bitcoin-trading-game/id657193679?ls=1&mt=8) was submitted to the app store, it was finally approved by Apple today.

This is a simple app for you iPhone to practice trading Bitcoins. You start with $10,000 virtual USD and the goal is to maximize your return over time.

I wanted to stay "lean" and launch as soon as possible so I made a few tradeoffs on features and only spent about 10 hours making the app. This way I can quickly see if there are enough interest in the idea and get feedback from the users to do further development.  

If you have feature request or feedback, please reply to this thread.
