Day 1 of Bursa Pursuit

Erm.... i've come out from the silence....for a while. And seems like there are big changes in posting up stuff... either that it's my browser's fault ==" Having trouble with posting pics on the post and i nid to use codes instead of clicks now. geez... Anyway...

There's two things i'd like to share today.

1st: I'll be in KL to attend an 8-day course which starts from 13th Oct until 29th Oct. Heng tai, i'll contact you guys when i'm able to meet up with you guys. My homework for that course just started today and i have to passed it up on this coming Monday. ^^"

2nd: Just thought of sharing this game with you all. In case you guys never heard of it. It's called BursaPursuit.

Just go google "Bursa Pursuit" and it'll take you there. So what is this thing that i so wanted to share about? Well, it's an online web-based stock market game. From what i know, this site has been up recently and there's ads about it on radios. So what's cool about this game? Basically you signed up to play, either solo or gang up with a few friends to trade stocks and rank up. And what more better when they offer you RM100,000 (hard cash) to you if u happen to be the winner. Another feature is that the information, the stock updates are all based on the real Malaysia Bursa Stock (formerly known as KLSE-Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange). It's really an awesome and educational game among all the games i've played before. I got into this game after an introduction from my junior Thomian, Bryan Tong.

Since i just started today, i still don't quite have a clear picture on how to play stock market. But i'm seriously devoting myself into learning it. From my research, i found out that Even Australia high school students are exposed to this trading stuff..... then again if i recall correctly, even neopets have it. ^^"
But this Bursa Pursuit is far more different that those i've played. It's the real deal. Only thing fake is the $ i have in hand. The starting $ for anyone who signed up for this game is $250,000. That's a lot ain't it?

My progress so far is that i earned a gross profit of RM1.18 from 10 units of BJCORP. My next market watch will be:

1) Silver-WA
2) BJCORP
3) HSBC-C2
4) AIRASIA-CA
5) PBBANK-01

So who's interested in this? I'm thinking of making a league for it. Let me know so we can gang up and earn that RM100,000.


PS: Angel, how's everything there? All good?

Signing of,
