Could those of you who have seen the after-hours-trading-cheat in action please try this fix to see if this resolves the problem?

I've attached one file to this post. Simply upload this file to your /includes directory, overwriting the already existing file. If this does fix the cheat, I will include this in an official update.

Looks like your server is having issues connecting to the Yahoo feed. Contact your host.

Just out of curiosity , this doesn't prevent us from buying after the market has closed does it ? Because I work in retail management and I'm rarely home when the markets are open

No, it does not. I changed the plugin to grab slightly different info from Yahoo. I believe it's a "real time" feed.

In theory, if a user tries to buy something early in the morning, it should use the current price and not the previous day's price.

Should there be something for icash on my forumhome that would work with the stock trader? My stock trader links are in the navbar, but they lead to non-existent pages

I've posted a new update which includes two fixes:

1) mutual funds can now be bought/sold
2) the after-hours-purchasing cheat should be fixed

i heard report from my users today that when they buy before market opens, vbtrader shows the market is already open. This is by design right ?
