It's not changed much from the round or rounds you played. Click the header. On all trades, not just at the start of a round, just as with a regular broker, you can change your order until the cutoff time. You can change your selections 49 times before 4 PM Friday, but after a while Elroy or Taro may set a new rule. I didn't want to select positions Wednesday for execution at the closing price Friday, so I chose to put it all in cash. But I will make my selections after 3:50 Friday. The shortest window to know the price you will get is to place the order, time-stamped by SI, just before the close. If you are late, even at 4:00:00, just as with an online broker, you'll get the closing price the next trading day (but then you can cancel or replace that order before the close of the next trading day). If you join the game in progress there is a penalty stated in the header. If I got any feature wrong, the header is official.

I see you like GBN.. They have a great property, imo, I know it.. I used to trade it for a few bucks..But they were "controlled" so long by the Hunter-Dickenson Group and, IMO, that group never did a gd thing for their share holders of their various companies and they had a bunch.... So GBN had a so-called split from the H-D group last fall, but I think Thiessen is still involved in both.. And that tells me a lot.. <g,ng> Good luck with it though..:) And the above is JMO though too..:) c
