Sounds like a ponze scheme. What’s the science behind valuing the player

It's pretty simple; the more people that buy shares in a player the more his stock goes up, therefore if you bought before the majority, that majority will be paying more for each share which lead to the value of your shares going up.

So what you are saying is: you buy a player and then you get 2 friends to buy that player and they get 2 friends to buy that player.

If you want to be cynical about it then sure it has a pyramid sense to it but it's on a far greater scale in a market where people are purchasing millions of shares on a daily base so it has nothing to do with me selling on to anyone. Put a tenner in on someone, leave it for a while and see where it gets you.

Both purchases I made at the start of last season have made me 300% and 200% on my investments.

Plenty of reviews on trust pilot for you to disagree with - https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/footballindex.co.uk

I'm personally playing the long game. All my purchases have been periphery players/youngsters who's careers I believe will take a sharp upturn in the coming years.

If you buy these types at 1-2 per share whilst they are "periphery" and they become first team and valuable players they will be worth 3-4 per share minimum. As I said, I think it's enjoyable and low risk.

That would still be nowhere near substantial enough.

boo, any tips for a novice starter like me? I know like you said above it's good to go for up and coming youngsters who are going to rise more in the long term, but how much do players rise and fall in the short term? For example, is it not good practice to choose a player who has 5 easy games coming up and then sell them after those 5, because of the commission they take off? I.e. even if they were great in those 5 games, would they only go up about 10p max etc?
