The Share Trader game is a simple porfoliio share trading game. Currently it's focussed on the UK equities market (FTSE 100 and FTSE All share) and is based on Yahoo data.

The game is written in PHP, using a framework called CodeIgniter for the dynamic system.

There are two timed jobs that also run:

• Periodic update of the current share price
• Periodic migration of current share price to a history table

• Database schema
• Application stucture
• Details of the data sources
