Thanks for your reply. What is wrong with the website? The layout, the texts?

Why is it that the price ladder is missing prices? Is it because there are no limit orders posted for some prices? Looks a bit weird.


So essentially is this a product where you've created your own market, which moves according to some algorithm you've designed and has no attachment with any real market?

Yes, it's due to the lack of limit orders posted for some prices - we'll try to make it look more clear - thanks for the tip

Our 'market' has nothing to do with any real market, but its moves are based on what the users do, so it would behave like a real market. Thanks to that, you should be able to predict its moves with technical analysis. (because it doesn't just move randomly). Does that sound interesting?

I can't see the point of this...sorry

Also it looks like your website was programmed by a 9 year old in word.

Thanks for the reply! What do you mean about not seeing the point - is the game boring? Complicated? Badly explained?

What's your USP - what do you offer that a demo account doesn't?

If there are any advantages over a traditional demo acc, you should point them out so they are clear to the visitor within 5 - 10 seconds of landing on the home page.

If traders have trust issues trading real markets on exchanges with regulated brokers, what makes you think they will be happy to trade on fake markets where you have an algorithm for deciding how prices move that is essentially under your control?

I'm surprised this isn't illegal.
