Hmm. With those numbers, and the rate it's decreasing (roughly half each time), it actually isn't too far from its likely settling point. Maybe in the 6DKP range as a lower bound, but I wouldn't guess any higher than 8DKP, so I'm still shorting for a little while.
I don't think adjusting stocks to match VGchartz.com is a very good idea. That would make this market's numbers no better than their estimates.
VGchartz is an imperfect and incomplete source. They have changed their numbers in the past and they are also missing games on their lists. I do use their numbers but they are still just estimates at best. Just beacuase a game doesn't appear on their site doesn't necessarily mean a game sold zero.
This is an example of a game VGchartz.com have missed but we have US NPD numbers for. 27,936 units sold in March and 13,415 in April for a total of 41,351 units sold.
Is it even possible for this stock to get down to 1 DKP? There are many stocks that are overvalued by as much as 40% that are finding it very hard to fall down to a more accurate price. This stock is overvalued by about 90%... I really doubt this'll be able to get down to 1 DKP. The way I see it, the only way this stock could possibly fall to 1 DKP is if KultOfCows intervened. If I recall correctly, this was done to adjust the Red Steel stock price when it was revealed to have shipped 950K. I think similar action is required here. What does everyone else think?
Does VGC keep track of XBox games any more? Because if it does, I can't find any mention of the XBox version of MLB 2K7 on the top 200 list for the week that this game is launched (all other version of this game that's listed here are on the chart).
Was there just a large bid-ask spread at the time? I don't see that much volume traded for there to be possible manipulation (MLB 2k7 Xbox isn't on the most active traded list today).
The trading in Eragon (PC) is pretty crazy today. Guess someone is unwinding a big short position.
