In this game, offers must always have a Spread
of 4 between the buy price and the sell price.

With your Target Price of 100, you'll see that the game
automatically set you up with an offer to buy low
at 98 and sell high at 102.

Press the large "Buy/Bid" and "Sell/Ask" Offer
button, and watch the players trade with you!

  Each round, the role of Market Maker passes clockwise.
In this tutorial, you are the first Market Maker.

The Market Maker must make an offer to BOTH buy stock
from other players at a low price AND sell stock to other
players at a higher price...

  To make a profit, you want to buy lower than your Target Price of 100
or sell higher than your Target Price of 100.

Hopefully, the stock will trade for your Target Price at the end of the game,
and the difference in price will be your profit...

  Just like in the real stock market, you need to use your Research Reports
and other information to estimate whether the stock price will go up or down.

You can estimate the future final game price using the value of your private
Research Reports cards, 0. Add that to the game's current/starting price, 100.
This makes your estimated future Target Price: 100...
