This project is a four-week stock market simulation. The goal of this project was for the participant to learn more about the stock market and gain real-time experience so that he can make informed investment decisions in the future. This project analyzed the current stock market, compared two different methods of active trading (swing trading and news trading), and conducted a four-week simulation with two different companies with $100,000 for each trading method. The results showed that swing trading was more profitable than news trading.
