Title: Celebdaq
Post by: JB on October 06, 2003, 11:33:06 PM
Does anyone have have a dabble?  It's the BBC's spin on stocks and shares, but with celebrities instead.  Celebs can be bought and sold like commodities with their price increasing the more they're in the news.   Right now i'm £96 on my starting credit of £10000, hopefully Alex from Fame academy wil bring me a little fortune in when she pops here first of many number ones.

Dont hold much hope of the rest of the bunch of misfits though.


Beyonce Knowles           £10.20     x 83 shares  
Cameron Diaz               £6.30       x 200    
Catherine Zeta Jones     £2.89       x 1      
Sven Goran Eriksson     £2.72       x 500    
Craig David                  Â£2.68       x 600    
FA2 Alex Parks              Â£3.45      x 1395


All i need is for Catherine zeta jones to divorce the old bloke (no, not him) run off with Sven goran eriksson, stab Craig David (who wouldnt wanna?), have some licky, licky, lesbian affairs with Beyonce and Cameron diaz then top herself with a shotgun while high on E's.

Ahhh top of the league here we come.   :D

damn you for showing me this link.... now I'm playing!  :D

On your portfolio screen choose "Professional trader mode" then choose "personal league".  Now join the league called "dMw".

Its just a grouping so we can easily compete against each other....

i just buy one of the top moving shares and check it about once a day to see if its fallen much if it has then  i get a new share type. its very simple.

when i get a few hundred thou then i spred over a couple of shares and each dividend i get normally go's to spred the risk over many shares

ie dont put all your egs in one basket.

i got caught out once when i didnt check fora weekend and my shares were losing over 3p per hour [ doesnt sound much but when you have 10 000 shares and over it is]

cummon RAD MAN

doesnt take much to do reonably in celebdaq

how hte feck are you on - growth for the week.

just buy shares that are growing reonbly well by clicking on the pro traders page and then clicking on movers and loosers and pick a moover to trade in,

if you thinkl that a celeb is going to do summin good, ie like if david beckham had have socored that penatly 2 nioght or if his header hadnt have been called off side [ hte bastrds] then his profile would have rocketed, of if he had got sent of wetc his media coverage would habe gone up and there for his profile wouldhave gone up u have to think latteraly m9.



ps who is chubb man????????????????

2 mil? Jeez nice 1
Title: Celebdaq
Post by: sheepy on October 20, 2003, 09:37:59 AM
that actually cant happen, sorry m8

once you get over 1 mil then all your shares are taken away and you are given a millionair icon, i could see that ashare may grow up to a million if you left it, butnot avril lavigne her shares have never bee nthat good. once at a million you wouldnt grow any more as you woulnt have any shares..


and to you others wp, ive hada really shit week.

just you wait till i start doing well again, some weeks im at about 200%, more commonly im around 150%-170%
