Trades can be viewed at the links below. The sample portfolio is designed for smaller starting accounts of $30 instead of the typical starting size of 100,000.

The link above is designed for trading games. The purpose of my game is to test the feasibility of having about 10 open positions in a trading account of 30k. The game is set up for 100k cash but only 30k is used at any given time. I chose to use 100k because the game does not always properly assign margin, especially on intraday trades. So the game says it's 100k of cash but only 30k plus margin is actually used. If you look at the position sizes and orders, you will notice that most swing positions are $2,000-- $5,000 each while intraday scalps have a wider range, sometimes between $10--20k using margin.
The portfolio does not necessarily represent the same number of shares that I purchase in my own personal real money account(s). I may purchase additional stocks in my personal account, or may elect to not personally purchase some of the simulated trades.
