    Thats because its a long term game. You can have to wait over 6 months before selling.

    it isn't an instant results kinda thing.
    the price of the stock depends on how many people buy it, if that helps.
    i don't recommend getting a group together just to raise a stockprice, however.

    :lol: I wish that was how it worked!
    TNT say explicitly that it is not like that at all.
    In real life it can work like that, but not on Neo.

    I only made like a 3k profit when I sold my stocks a month later so you need to be patient.

    TNT should make it like it was so it could be more like the real world stocks

    And most of them were frozen.
    It can be compared to buying every item of a rare kind (faerie paint brushes for example) to be able inflate the market value of the item and let you set the price.
    Sad though, since it was at least semi-legit what they did. :?

    To make somewhat quick money I buy two stocks around 15, 16 or 17 np and sell them around 30 and if they are still going higher I wait.

    Yep, the prices of stocks are said to be totally random, not depending on activity or anything. It used to be like that though, but TNT changed it. I don't like the stock market very much, its takes too much patience and time to see dramatics results.
