Buy @285.78
$88.14 / 285.78 = 0.3084
(It's shame that my previous buy didn't come through. What I was doing wrong?)

it was indeed a mistake made by me.
Strange, because I remember updating your balance. Maybe something went wrong with the saving? Don't know, problem solved.

i think I missed it. I check again and if it's valid, I will honor your previous buy.
8h starts at that previous trade

I'm a hero!!! Hurrah! This is a consolation for being one of the worst (two steps from the bottom) trader.
Still, the game is a fun. Thanks, dnaleor!

Results so far:
1. The best strategy is HODL. All HODLers are at the top quarter.
2. Among those who thinks they are smart/lucky enough to trade, 95% are in loss. They gave their money to the 5% that are really smart/lucky

some of those HODLers are referred to as being "Ghosts"
That's why we need to have the activity check. If anyone has an idea on how to implement it fairly, let me know.
In any case, I'll send the first activity check by PM and explain the system to all who needs to post here something for the first time.
But if someone is called for a second activity check, I don't think it's a good idea to send a PM, because they could easily post something after they get an email notification.
So at first I was thinking to post it in this thread, but there is the risk that someone doesn't read all the posts (and nobody is expected to do that. After all, this thread is mainly for posting trades).
So I was thinking, maybe put the message on the scoreboard for 48 hours. In those 48 hours the people who don't trade are expected to post something in this topic, to show that they are "actively HODLing" (either BTC or USD). After all... if you never check the scoreboard and HODL your virtual USD or BTC, are you really playing this game?
your thoughts?
That would be perfect!
Make an extra column titled "required activity check" and put a check mark or bullet in the respective box

You guys should make sure you enter this with a plan. I fudged up my plan twice and look where that got me...
Btw, since you are using google docs, you can build an easy automatic converter on Sheet 3:
Username | BUY/SELL | Price | Calculated BTC | Calculated USD
You can then have the initial sum going through these individual orders and the result automatically calculated
This also allows you to see who was inactive the most (over the last X trades).

thx, if I have time i'll implement this. Just a little busy lately
BTW, thanks a lot for the time you spent organize all this
Great organization so far !

I was a HODLER until few days ago and I'm in last position
(don't regret for my sell because until everything gets clarified about Bitstamp I think sit in buy position is too risky)
So far the money hodlers are in better shape, in general, because the median is around 90

Well, I waited for this rebound until I got bored and the market looked bland, so I did something else, came back and saw this. 
Is there a rule that if we don't post a trade for 48h our virtual accounts are charged 1%?

no!
the 48 hours start after I've send a message to inactive people. You qualify as "inactive" if you post nothing (or no trade, not decided yet) in this topic in the 48 hours prior to the activity check.
edit: I'm thinking... Should I send those activity check messages to the inactive people, or should I just post "ACTIVITY CHECK" on the last pages in this topic?
help me out guys
I already said I want input from the players Putting "Activity check" in the thread could get lost if someone doesn't read all new posts.

Couldn't agree more! I'm used to trading in/out in short periods if need be, so the 8hr thing takes some getting used to. I've since started building a system specifically for this game and will start using it as soon as I have it to my liking.
A preview; Based on 8 hour bars. Buy on green open, sell on red open. It still needs fine tuning. Catches tops/bottoms pretty well

Every 48 hours or just within 48 hours of a "ACTIVITY CHECK" post?
HODL btw
HODL btw
January 06, 2015, 05:30:06 PM
But we will do regular activity checks. I have something like this in mind:
If no confirmation within 48 hours by posting in this topic, peoples balances will be "charged" with 1%
That means you can't HODL your BTC or USD without "actively HODLing"
edit: no confirmation is needed if at least one trade was made 48 prior to the activity check
So as long as we come in here every 48 hours and say "HODLing" we can keep our current position without charge? That works

it's okay Omikifuse has been the bottom and made some really bad trades in terms of buy the highest and sell the lowest.
