Title: Now displaying transaction history
Post by: Patrick on July 31, 2013, 03:50:31 pm
I've added the transaction history to all holdings pages. Noticed one very sneaky user, but I'll wait and see who else picks it up...

Wait! I don't see the sneaky bit, looking but just not seeing. 

Tell us, I want to do it in real life as well. ;D

There is no such thing as negative shares - the minimum cost would have to be 1 cent; otherwise they would be suspended or delisted - but nevertheless at a nominal price

Basically a system loophole was used to "sell" shares and "short" shares. It was something I realised was possible and blocked, never knew anyone noticed and used the loophole though :)
