I just found a website with investing lessons and interactive games, I thought others might find it interesting.

Here's Your Chance to Make Millions in the Stock Market (http://www.econedlink.org/lessons/index.php?lid=333&type=student) :blink:

Or if you just want to try the 5 minute games:

I got them all right in the first part and then it tried to tell me about the EMH. lol.

Same. And charting isn't even my thing.

Part 2 was an easy 100% right too. But Part 3, I narrowly missed doing as well as buy-and-hold..... I think my stockmarket history knowledge is better than my market timing ability...:cool:

Did well on all three - only missed one major up on part three - thought it may have been the dot com bubble burst, but it was after that - but again it is more about knowing what was going on during the period

I made a couple of mistakes in Part 2 but still turned my hundred into $2,794 (with buy and hold returning $497).

I made $2724 for the second part. Made a few mistakes. Did quite well in part 3 - over $150k but missed that last one - I thought it was going to cover the dot com crash.

I did the first 3 questions and then noticed it was stupid and stopped

I think that makes me the overall winner.

If I hold for another 100 years I will be in the money! Hmmm...what to buy?
