Recently I've been researching into starting to buy shares. But so far have not taken the plunge. Although I do have quite a few shares in William Hill, which I got for £1.80, peaked at £6.70, sold some at £6.20 and now dropped to £5.50 in the last couple of weeks.
I've found this virtual share trading website, which I thought would be a good way to practise without the risk.
It is free to join and you get £100,000 of virtual money. To buy and sell shares in the real share markets.
The website is here. It is free to enter, and I have set up a superleague called OTF with the password of otfotf.
Doing something like this at school with www.studentinvestor.org which is pretty good fun. What with the FTSE doing awfully barring Rio Tinto/Anglo American recently I've done awful however.
