# Project HTS

A promising company. A shifting order book. A report that reaches you before the news does. **Project HTS** is a fantasy stock-market simulation about turning what you know into investment decisions—and living with the risks you take.

## Explore a market of 500 companies

Search by company or ticker and compare businesses across ten industries, from healthcare and mining to magic and transportation. Find opportunities among the companies of five fantasy nations while AI investors keep the market active.

## Read the chart. Check the order book.

Study candlesticks, change the chart period and choose technical overlays. New sessions start with generated price history, giving you a market to analyze from the beginning.

Compare buy and sell orders before choosing your price and quantity. Use limit orders or market orders that fill available quantity within the game's price protection range.

## Look beyond the share price

Review company financials and fifteen indicators, including P/E, P/B, return on equity, earnings and dividend yield. Weigh the numbers against market momentum and the information available to you.

## Build and manage your positions

Track quantities, average costs, unrealized returns and position values in one holdings list. Choose ordinary shares or higher-risk multiplier positions. Multipliers amplify the effect of price changes, and these positions also lose value through periodic decay.

## Negotiate the terms

Propose futures, calls, puts or premium calls. Set the company, direction, quantity, strike and maturity, then manage the commitments that follow. Cash and shares tied to a contract matter as much as the opportunity you see.

## Trade information, not just shares

Buy information, read what you acquired and resell eligible knowledge. The information market contains both truths and falsehoods. A useful lead can lose its value when the news becomes public.

Read news about companies, industries and nations. An event's date and its publication date can differ: timing is part of the decision.

## Plan your funding

Compare loan repayment methods, review schedules and keep track of obligations. Multiplayer participants can also request loans from one another. More cash creates options, but debt changes the position you must manage.

## Compete for net worth

Play alone against configurable AI rivals or join a Steam multiplayer session with up to eight human players. Choose a timed net-worth ranking or a race to a target. Review cash, assets, debt and rankings as your strategy develops.

Set the difficulty, market population, starting capital and number of AI competitors. The interface is available in English, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.

Single-player supports local saves and pausing. Multiplayer sessions are hosted by one player; the session ends if the host leaves.
