Default Simulated Stock Market Hack...

I think it would be cool if there were a customizable stock market... It would work with the same dollars used (or perhaps have seperate dollars) in the vBookie system, and Admins would be able to set the stocks available, including a picture and maybe some basic info. The admin could then announce an IPO for a new stock and make X amount of stocks available for purchase, and the community at large would take over and let the market dictate whether the price goes up and down. Users would then be able to buy and sell at the market rate. It would be great fun.

I think this would be a home run hit.

There was one in the works here... I know because I donated $100 to the guy to keep up the good work as he had it working on his site... I believe he's ditched the project now and doesn't seem to want to release the code he already had done

Do a search for stockmarket here, it should show up.

Cheers,

~Regs.

sounds like a good idea, but then I like investing on the stockmarket, would be a cool feature for forums about the stock market.

What would someone reasonably expect to be paid for a hack like this? It would be such an amazing addition to my site that I don't think I can go without it for too much longer. I'm hungry for this hack and would like to know what a fair price to pay to have the work done. I've got about a zillion uses for a hack like this.

Any input?

Just came across this - it would be an awesome mod indeed. Anyone got anything like this in the pipeline?

I actually might have someone that is willing to code this for me. It's going to cost about $1,000 and I don't think I'm getting ripped off because through freelance sites I was being quoted $5,000 or more. It's a very complex hack which is why a lot of people aren't up for coding it themselves.

However, if anyone here is willing to split the costs in return for shared rights of the code, let me know. It's also possible he may not charge me at all and become a partner on my site, in which case we will have to decide - release the code for free or sell copies of it? Either way, if you're interested in getting this hack made, PM me.

I would be interested in chipping in for this mod whether it is free and me chipping in is a very handy donation to the coder, or whether its a premium mod.

Please can someone code it?
