1. Introduction
1.1 Goals and Overall Plan for the IQP
The main goal of this IQP is to achieve an understanding of the stock market
through research of various trading techniques, and using these techniques in a mock
trading simulation. Every member in the group will use a different trading technique
(penny stocks/short term trading, swing trading,and trend following), and trade with that
technique over an eight-week period. Eachmember starts witha total of $250,000 faux
dollars, which they will invest into several different companies, and try to make a 10%
return on their investments. This means thatby the end of the trading period, we should
each have a total in our portfolio above $275,000. To help keep track of our investments,
we will be using an online simulation program called Virtual Stock Exchange by the
company MarketWatch Inc.

Every Sunday, we will give a weekly report to Professor
Dalin Tang detailing what we did in the past week. This includes all of the stocks that we
bought/sold, how much money wemade/ lost, and our objectives for the upcoming week.
