A nine-week stock market simulation was conducted using two different trading strategies, penny stock trading and short term trading methods, to gain experience in stock market trading and investment. The two methods and simulation results were compared to find out the differences of the methods and techniques when applying them in real trading. The knowledge gained can be used for future investments.
