I have done a little practice before I started this blog. Here is a recap:
The original starting amount is $3000 hypothetical dollars. Note: The hour and last few numbers have not been recorded, but will be recorded in the future.
Currency market practice:
Buy euros at $1.28 per euro. Cost in dollars: $1000
781.25 euros on hand
Reasoning: The graph trends showed that the euro was going to rise.
Dollars left: $2000
Date: 9/3/2010

Invest 500 imaginary dollars in Japanese yen at 83.83 yen per dollar
41917.5 yen bought.
Dollars left: $1500

Sell 393.70 Euros at $1.30 per euro
Euros left: 393.70
Yen left: 41917.5
Dollars left: $2012.69
