Some friends and I are trying to create a game with one another through excel. The idea is that we all would come up with a fake company...lets call mine Jason Enterprises. We all start with a set amount of shares of stock (say 5000). The starting value of all the shares is the same (say $10). We all also start with the same budget (say $100000). We plan on running the game monthly with each of us having a turn as the 'StockMaster'. The idea is that every day we each send out 'buy' or 'sell' tickets for shares of one another's stocks. The StockMaster will input everyone's 'buy' or 'sell' tickets into a master spreadsheet (although I will most likely just create some sort of vlookup to pull from the sheets). We then need the master spreadsheet to fluctuate stock prices and total shares for everyone's company based on what was bought and sold. If say 1000 shares of Jason Enterprises is purchased, then the stock would go up $1. If 2000 shares of Jason Enterprises are sold, then the stock would go down $2. At the end of the month, the person that has made the most money will win the game. I am completely stuck on how to write the formula(s) in the master spreadsheet to do these tabulations though. I started by creating a basic table with all the company names, starting shares, and starting share value. I just can't figure out where to go from there. Help is much appreciated.
