2/11/2023 Update: There had been a month-long hiatus due to the CF name change magic (and my own laziness oops), but everything has been fixed now :D! However, I know a lot of people have gone inactive due to the month-long market closure, so I am hoping to relaunch StonksCF in the near future with some new mechanisms (dividends, automatic algorithm trading, etc.). Let me know if you have any ideas! In the meantime, feel free to continue exploiting the way-over-inflated economy and embrace your inner capitalism >:D

Final Update: We now have our own DISCORD SERVER. Join us for the latest information and engage with the community at https://discord.gg/AeH2GTwkF5 All the announcements will be there instead of on this page

Greetings Fellow CodeForces users!

I am proud to introduce my latest project, CF Stonks (aka StonksCF), which is a virtual stock market based on your CodeForces rating.

Have you ever been thrilled by the ups and downs of CodeForces ratings? If so, you will love this project :D. On the website, you will automatically receive $$$200$$$ stocks of your own account (with the rest of the $$$800$$$ being sold on the market) and $$$10,000$$$ in cash upon registration. The price of each stock is based on your rating, so the higher the rating, the higher the price of a stock is. Furthermore, since crossing (or sometimes dropping) into a new division is so exhilarating, we aim to capture that excitement and give a $$$20$$$% boost between the ranks. The exact formula is $$$price = 1.2^{rank} \cdot rating$$$.

While the market is open (closed during contests), you can sell/buy other people's stock. Even though this is just a game, you can use the website as a source of motivation since people depend on you to not lose money 0_0.

So what are you waiting for? Try to become the wealthiest man on the website! More details on the game mechanics can be found on the about page

Steps to get started
Screenshot of the pages

Special thanks to the Nimbus bot developed by gamesterrex and caoash , which serves as my primary inspiration behind this project.

Furthermore, all of the source code is public and available on GitHub here, so if you would like to contribute or give suggestions, please open an issue/pull request.

Good luck and have fun playing :D

Edit: The market has been closed for the Div 3 contest. Good luck to anyone taking!

Edit: Market has been reopened, marking the end of our first trading cycle and the beginning of the second! Have fun trading everyone

Edit: After 14 days of chaos due to New Years name change, the website has been fully fixed and updated! :D Happy trading

now implement shorting

EDIT: I think line 218 here https://github.com/CodeTiger927/StonksCF/blob/main/backend/API.php#L218 the $stock != $username condition isn't working?

EDIT: also i think it isn't good to transfer password hashes via POST directly, maybe authetication cookies are better

    Won't it be possible to manipulate the market by shorting yourself and then dumping your rating lol

I loved this, theres one feature request: it would be nice if you add one button on the person's profile page which redirects to codeforces visualizer or simply their codeforces profile page(to analyze them more).

Brilliant idea!

I think you could add market indexes statistic based on rank.
in my mind it would look something like this:

index | total worth | avg change (since last contest)
---------------------------------
GREY | $4,123,123.98 | +4.5%
GRN | $6,456,234.12 | -1.6%
...
YLW | $38,789,889.34 | +1.9%
RED | $59,987,902.69 | +0.7%
it wouldn't have much practical use but sounds like a fun thing to have

      Also, I think the Register button should be hidden when you are logged in.

Maybe there is a bug: I tried to buy myself using my another account, which is unrated and certainly less than 6 rated contests, but I succeeded. I think this should be banned.

    moyu_028 apparently also bought their own stocks for nothing (Holdings with $0 Purchase Price). I think that such inappropriately obtained stocks should be confiscated and returned back to market :-)

    Edit: and now sold all 1000 stocks for $6.66 after buying for $0 (see moyu_028's trade history). That was free $6660 from nothing via exploiting this bug.

Hello! I was out of cash and I wanted to buy a stock, so I sold some of my other stocks to get enough cash for it. The sell operation was successful, the stocks disappeared from my portfolio but I did not get any cash back. Any reason why this could be happening? Thanks for the help in advance!

    Oh, this is very strange. I think it's because of a bug in my code that acts weird when there is a lot of concurrent transactions. I added some autofix code that should recalculate your cash and everything for the next trading cycle. Thanks for pointing that out

It seems that no one(including me) holds my stock but according to "Explore -> Available Stocks", my stock is purchasable only 995.
Some stocks disappeared happened to me, but maybe it also happened that I only get some cash and my stocks aren't erased.

    That is so strange. I honestly don't really know how that happened. My only idea is that the MySQL database sometimes has conflicting records so it just misbehaves. In any case, I have fixed your available stock counts. For the future, I think I will have to just recalculate everything at the start of each trading cycle since thankfully they don't happen that often. But yeah sorry for the inconvenience

I think the stocks shouldn't exist until they have like 10 contests at least otherwise the best tactic is too just look for alt sounding grey names. Like "WaOnPretest2Forces", "TheOneYouLost", "SomeOneWillBeLgm" etc. You should give them the stocks when they reach 10 contests instead.

    Great chart!

    Maybe two small mistakes:

    The Pmin of Gray should be 0.00. And is the colour of specialist cyan?

      Gray's Pmin=0.00?

      There are some accounts which have a negative rating. Maybe in this case, unknown behavior.

      Light Blue -> Cyan

      Fixed, thanks!(By the way, I think #00ffff(cyan) is more lighter than CF cyan)

codetiger927 can you enable transacting on all CF users and not just people who joined your site? I think it'd make it a lot more fun and interesting.

    Hi. So I would like to, but the problem is, if people try to buy an unregistered users stock, and say they bought all 1000 of the stocks, then the system won't have any more stocks to give to that user once he registers. I think currently the best solution is, if you want to invest anyone who isn't registered yet, shoot them a DM and ask them to join :p

      Couldn't you instead limit the default supply to 800 shares per user, and then create 200 new shares when they register?

we dont have a shorting option for more than the quantity we have. wouldnt it be good to have a shorting option so that we can short those who seemed to have climbed rather abruptly or are in a higher probability of not going up??

The market is open now. But the stonks prices don't seem to have been updated after the Educational Codeforces Round 120 [Rated for Div. 2]. Which allowed to sell bad performing stonks for the old price.
