#50 Multiple stock with quantities

[Li Chen]

Hi, I am very interested in Zocalo after I download and play with it for a couple of hours. I wonder if you guys can tell me how to modify it so that it is possible for people to trade multiple stocks at the same time and there is no limit of just trading one unit of stock each time.

Thanks

The limit of one unit per trade is only present in the Experiment configuration. The Prediction Market configuration supports much more general trading abilities.

If you want to run with the experiment configuration (short duration, pre-defiined list of participants, variety of scenarios) but with looser trading rules, this could be done just by building a different web interface. If you are familiar with java and JSP technology, I can point you to the right classes and files to make changes in. If you need more help than that, let me know, and I'll be glad to walk you through it, or see if I could quickly put together an interface that would serve your needs. --Chris
