I fucked up and did the Lester missions before the end. Now each dude has about 18 million (I'm careful with who I use in the heists) - can I still make the 150 mill for the golf course easily enough?

Why not start a second play through and do main missions only and save Lester missions till the end?

My friend did that and it only took 10 hours.

I came here to say that I been drinking Pisswater all freaken day and..

 

[phosphor112]

Does anyone know how often the Bawsaqs market updates? I feel like it takes MORE than an (real) hour to update.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Oh I did the first two missions for Lester. So I shouldn't do the rest? I already chose the folks for the heist:| Too late to change them too I bet?

I played it for 3 hrs last night and saw it update once.

According to reddit it's every 2 hours.

 

[phosphor112]

Ok, 2 hours sounds right. Thanks.

 

[Rflagg]

I knew about the Lester stuff (yes I have saved all but the required one) even though I haven't finished main story yet, but this stuff with gaf and othesr creating stock rises on bawsaq sounds fun as hell. I missed my chance to make real money on pis, but bookmarking the heck out of this to get full benefit the next go around.

 

[brokenbeans]

Going back on now I'll keep an eye on prices.

 

[Shady859]

Awesome thread I was laying in bed and it caused me to get up and turn game on. Lol I asked about this in the OT thread a few hours ago. I had no ideas... I was messing around and only making money investing in titty bar so all my guys were in that 100%. I always wondered why there were 2 markets never noticed the social integration on Bawsaq.

1.3 million total into PIS and going back to bed now. Dang I wish I hadn't bought those money making properties before bed last night. Spent about 900K, quite a lot for me since I only 26% done with game.

$6.13 a share at time of post.

 

[Branson]

So the Lester missions effect the bawsaq? Or do they effect lcn? I'm wondering because of fruit only being on bawsaq but the single player things effect lcn. Idk. I'm confused

 

[LegoDad]

I'm very curious as well as to how GTAO will affect stock prices...

Hmmm, maybe we should see if Off-Topic has any stock gurus we can pull in here for assistance

These video game stocks act nothing like real stocks so far... sorry.

My next full replay will be on the PS4 - 100% again.

 

[Jabba]

GAF always fucking delivers. I'm in tears laughing at the responses and the gifs and how the whole idea was presented by the OP.

After following this thread GAF...........

[Codeblew]

$6.14 now. I am riding it until the top. I don't care when others are selling. I will sell when it levels off or first downtick at the latest.

 

[brokenbeans]

PIS 6.25 for me 360.

 

[Amir0x]

damn this shit has stock markets and insider trading!?

jesus the game really does have everything in it doesn't it

 

[Joel Was Right]

I bought a lot of GoPostal shares and proceeded to destroy a PostGo van but nothing happened. How much destruction do I need do I need to cause?

 

[AndyVillan]

You sure? Market changes every hour so maybe by the time you switch, the price goes up or down.

I'm just swapping between characters, not waiting or anything. I really don't get it??

 

[Dead Man]

So replaying, and just done the first

Lester mission, what is the peak price to sell Betta Pharma at?

It went up something like 81.6% for me but I'm sure it's random. Check constantly and dump it at the first drop.

After doing the 5 assassination missions and the Tinkle random encounter, I'm ready to take the next step and just jumped on the Pisswasser band wagon.

This shit will make me or break me lol.

(I saved beforehand)

Wow, you really go all in. I always keep about 2-5M in reserve just in case!

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

This guide should also be in the OP if possible.

Best guide I used before this thread was made to make easy money that is well explained and very easy to follow.

Best guide I used before this thread was made to make easy money that is well explained and very easy to follow.

Condensed Version:

STEP 1 - BEFORE the second assassination mission invest in [DEB] Debonaire (LCN). Sell at 80% return.

STEP 2 - Invest in [RWC] Redwood (LCN). Advance in game clock 2 days. Sell at 300% return.

STEP 3 - BEFORE the third assassination mission invest in [FRT] Fruit (BAWSAQ). Sell at 50% return.

STEP 4 - AFTER the fourth assassination mission invest in [VAP] Vapid (BAWSAQ). Advance in game clock 2 days. Sell at 100% return.

STEP 5 - BEFORE the fifth assassination mission invest in [GCD] GoldCoast (LCN). Sell at 80% return.

Gah, damn it, I did all the Lester missions already. Ah well, it's not like I really care about being able to buy all the properties anyway...

 

[xbhaskarx]

Finish the story. Seriously.

But I want to be rich noooowwwww

 

[brokenbeans]

But I want to be rich noooowwwww

Then for 24 hrs invest in PIS then sell.

 

[brokenbeans]

20 mil in total I've got in PIS and just about to do last heist.

Oh yes!

 

[reezoo]

If LCN and BASWAQ are driven by different set of events, can I do arbitrage trading between them? or I have to sell the stocks on the same market that I bought?

 

[Alpende]

You sell the stocks in the market you bought them.

If you go to your portfolio and click on PIS for example it redirects you to the BAWSAQ market.

 

[Wind's Howling]

Better sell your HAL. Stocks are dropping every 2 hours.

 

[EndymionGalaxy]

Nope. Not on PS3

$7.14 +2.44%
$6.97 -1.27%

The top of the list is an hour ago. The next entry is three hours ago, then five, then seven, etc.

It's pretty steady, still

Hmm.. Weird. My Change $ lowered in comparison to 10 hours ago with quite a huge amount. It is sitting at $7.78 now.

 

[NeoGiff]

How do you get individual graphs on each stock? I could not find a way but I did not try *real* hard. Or are you just jotting down prices in a spreadsheet?

Social Club is your friend.

 

[Visualante2]

PIS 6.25 for me 360.

$6.86 on PS3

Nothing stops this train.

edit. Did anyone play BBC's Celebdaq about a decade ago? Good times. It was a stock exchange where press column inches dictated the stock price for the following week.

 

[WhenItsLate]

Earning virtual money is fun :3 PIS still going up, I'm in heaven! I really don't know what I will be doing with the returns apart from buying some properties (which won't have that much of an impact on my GTAV experience) but it's really satisfying anyways.

 

[G_Berry]

Just pumped every cent from each character into PIS.

How high can this go?

 

[elektrixx]

So I think I've gotten in too late for the beer company. What would you guys consider to be the next big investment?

Reddit is going to mass dump the stock on Monday, so it'll be interesting to see if there's any actual impact.

It's never too late you will at least make 10%

All in on PIS, SaltyBet style.

 

[xbhaskarx]

Damn I'm nowhere near my copy of GTAV until Monday night.... They need to add buying/selling of stocks to the phone app they released.

 

[xBladeM6x]

I abused the stock market assassinations after I finished the game, and now have hit the money cap. Yes, there's a cap. It's 2,147,483,647.

http://www.tradeindetectives.com/blog/daily-hint-grand-theft-auto-gta-v-how-to-make-money/

In order to accomplish what I did, I had

Spoiler

39 million on Michael when I did the assassination missions. Anyone who has finished the game will know why. I got 38,000,000 payout per person from the UD job.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Attention all ps3 stock holders:


HAL: $7.8
PIS: $7.25
