Trade stocks in a fantasy world
October 21st, 2008 by Edwin in Games – New Releases
Just in case you’re feeling extremely depressed about the current state of world economies, the UMOO has just the panacea for you. They have rolled out a new way to keep you distracted from global financial market meltdowns in the form of a new online fantasy stock trading platform. In addition, UMOO has thrown in the added incentive to win cold, hard cash from virtual trades. I think this is a fine idea, but sometimes one might think he/she is too savvy and enter the real world market only to get burnt badly later on.
UMOO’s competitive ‘Tournament Trading’ arena allows traders to manage virtual portfolios and compete for cash rewards. It is fantasy sports meets the stock markets - traders who build the best virtual stock portfolios win cash. UMOO provides a rich experience that allows users to trade in real time, managing portfolios to maximize profit. But unlike the stock markets, traders win by outperforming other traders in an exciting and adrenaline packed tournament format. UMOO offers a wide range of trading tournaments that vary in duration and buy-ins. Additionally UMOO offers a “fun” mode, where new traders can gain trading skills and practice with no risk at all. UMOO offers different types of tournaments and pay out structures to appeal to anyone with an interest in the financial markets. There are “Mini Tournaments” for those who want to compete in small groups, “Massive Tournaments” where thousands can compete for the biggest cash prizes, and UMOO’s unique “Double Up” stock market games, where half the participants win and double their money. UMOO even offers traders the ability to set up private tournaments, so friends and work colleagues can enjoy competing against one another in their own online “office pool”. Finally, there are regular Risk Free Tournaments, where traders are invited to compete for cash rewards with absolutely no cost.
The Beta launch of UMOO’s latest online game comes with a $10,000 carrot in prize money. All top performing traders will win cash prizes, and with free gameplay, this is one way you can truly earn infinite returns on zero investment. Be forewarned though - the number of seats available are extremely limited, so prospective traders are encouraged to sign up soonest possible.
