That is good then. I'm banking some money but not any stats. I'm playing the markets well but I've been dropping guys right before they perform (Wells for example). I managed to make about $6 on Pedro and drop him before the injury hurt his value.

When exactly is the Trading Floor open/closed? It says that it's closed for various 15 minute intervals during the day, but I find that it's closed for a lot longer than that.

I'm not giving you advice until you waive your no trade clause.

Done.

So yes, its usually longer than 15 minutes, and it says plainly what times they usually go down at. Its also in Pacific time, so add 3 hours.

The_Hater · Post #28 » by **The_Hater** » Thu Apr 3, 2008 6:12 pm

The trading floor has been closed for at least the last hour +. And with most of today's action taking afternoon games taking place that completely limits who I can buy and sell later. I'm completely confused on when and why they close and open it in the middle of the day like this.

yea, i cant seem to understand why there are closed at this particular time.

for some reason a rods value has dropped $40. but im hoping its a glitch.

Mats_Sundin · Post #30 » by **Mats_Sundin** » Thu Apr 3, 2008 6:30 pm

This message is now posted on the site:

Due to some technical issues on the Trading Floor today, we will be rolling back the game to 9 am PT this morning. All buys, sells and roster moves from this morning will be reset, and every team will return to the same roster and value they had prior to today's market open. We apologize for any inconvenience. This is the best solution to keep everything fair for everyone. One of our biggest concerns is always maintaining the integrity of the market. Thank you for your patience. The Trading Floor will re-open as soon as possible.

Now that things are being reset for that day, I was watching ARod's stock plummet earlier today waiting to pounce as soon as his price starting turning back upwards. He went from $66 to $20 in about 40 minutes.

That said, if you think about it, that kind of fall doesn't make any sense.

I was online at noon today and watched as A-Rod's stock sunk like a stone. I picked him up for $21.00. Something was weird. I saw him falling and assumed there was some sort of injury that I hadn't heard about. I guess the system was just messed up.

Picking up A-Rod for twenty bucks stacked my team. I'm disappointed that my roster goes back to its $hittyness. I made some other moves as well but I guess I'll just have to keep checking the site to re-do everything.

That was me. I was on Yankees.com and a couple of roto sites looking for information on some sort season ending injury. It was the only thing that made sense for his price dropping almost 70% in 40 minutes.

But if there was as glitch, this sounds like the correct way to handle it.

Maybe they do the odd extreme value buy to beneft those who are really active?

mini · Post #36 » by **mini** » Thu Apr 3, 2008 10:30 pm

Looks like they are setting the rosters back to last night's status and erasing today from history.

This really sucks for me. I had Westbrook, Soriano, Fielder all this afternoon and then a bunch of guys for tonight (I had my roster set last night for today)

I doubt that you're the only one that didn't lose a starting pitcher and some nice stats today.
