How RGO Class is different
A plain side by side with the typical classroom stock game.
| Topic | RGO Class | Typical classroom stock game |
|---|---|---|
| Ads | RGO Class:No ads, ever. | Typical game:Often shows ads or promotions. |
| Student sign in | RGO Class:First name and a 4 digit PIN. No student accounts, no student emails. | Typical game:Usually a student account, often with an email address. |
| Devices | RGO Class:Works in the browser on Chromebooks and phones. Nothing to install. | Typical game:Some need a full computer or an app download. |
| Florida standards | RGO Class:Lesson kit mapped to Florida standards, with benchmark codes from CPALMS. | Typical game:Usually general lessons, not tied to Florida benchmarks. |
| Risk | RGO Class:Stop-loss and take-profit are taught, and every buy needs a stop. | Typical game:Stops are optional or missing; buying is the whole game. |
| Charts | RGO Class:Our own charts, built in house, with candlestick lessons. | Typical game:Charts are often borrowed from an outside provider. |
The right column describes what is common in classroom stock games, not any one product.
Season challenge
Trade all year, beat last year's record
Beyond the class period game, a season lets every student trade on their own from a start date the teacher sets to the end of the school year. Practice money, real prices, one standings board for the class.
The teacher picks the dates
Start any day you like and run to the end of the school year. Students who join late can still play.
Real daily closing prices
Prices are the real closing prices of real companies. An order fills at the next market close, so nobody trades at a price they already know.
Every buy has a stop
A buy needs a stop to protect it. A take-profit is there to lock in a gain. Both are checked on every daily close.
Titles to earn
Market Leader, Podium Trader, Top Ten Trader, and Longest Champion for the most days at number one.
A records board
Each class keeps its records, so next year's students have a number to chase: beat last year's record.
