I have become addicted to this free financial currency game its free to play and you win real money as you gain points

GAIN aims to be the world's most rewarding app! It teaches you how to profitably trade on the financial markets, and pays you cash rewards when you do well.

Here is the link to join in with my supporter link https://nous.net/intro?by=0fSkgZ
 
Have joined using your link and now I'm addicted!

In the tutorial I done really well but unfortunately it looks like all my luck has run out.

The site looks so good even on my phone, first time in ages I've seen such a well thought out mobile site.

agree it is a really neat website here is the piece from the Sunday times






ARMCHAIR investors can try their luck as currency traders using a new smartphone app — and win cash for correctly forecasting market movements.

The free app, called Gain, will use players’ predictions to make real bets on the currency markets, and share the profits through a prize fund.

It is the brainchild of Justin Short, a former electronic trading strategist with Merrill Lynch in Tokyo. His company, Nous, aims to use the predictions made by tens of thousands of players to create a market-beating investment fund.

Short predicts prizes totalling $100m (£64m) could be awarded over 10 years. Nearly 3,000 people have so far signed up to the app.

They are earning an average of $5 week, but highly skilled individuals could earn up to $10,000 in 2014 and $100,000 in 2015, Short claimed.
 
Could be a silly question, but how do they make money themselves?

I suppose they could advertise sites that you can buy real shares on maybe.

I'm on around 2,000 points right now :)

I believe they are a large hedge fund and they use your predictions to trade on the real markets
 
It's literally "the wisdom of crowds" (or so they hope)
 
If anyone has joined would love to know your score
