The board is a circuit of 40 squares, 13 market cards, 7 loss or windfall, 6 dream and reality, 5 you must trade, 4 all may trade, 4 day trade and 1 start square.
The high number of market squares ensure there is plenty of change in the market between trades.
The all may trade, you must trade and day trade squares give 13 chances to buy or sell shares.
Of the loss or windfall squares, 3 are basically a tax if $5,000 or $10,000 1 is a $10,000 gift, 1 makes you buy 100 shares form the person on your right, 1 is a bonus of 100 shares of you smallest holding and 1 is a doubling of your smallest share allotment. These last two can be game winners if you makes sure you only own 1 type of share. This makes your smallest holding also your largest and a doubling of your largest shareholding at times can win you the game.
Passing the start square earns you $10,000.
