Version 7 reworks the way stock prices update - Uses global variables to store share prices - Equation used to determine prices is more precise - implements price spikes - Stock prices will never hit 0 unless the merchant is dead - Stock prices now update every 30 seconds rather than 60 - fixes a bug that caused player ledgers to not display info
Version 6
Version 6 overhauls the entire system - Share prices fluctuate - Shares are sold remotely so player can sell when the price is right - No more cap on the number of shares players can buy - Higher dividend payments - Dividends paid out automatically every week - 6.1 fixes the "Exhange" typo - 6.2 fixes a typo that allowed players to buy more stock shares than they should be able to afford - 6.3 attempts to rebalance the effect of the Luck attribute on the fluctuating stock price - 6.3 is not actually successful in its mission - 7.0 rebalances the effect of the luck attribute
Version 5
Version 5 brings quality of life improvements - UI is now more dynamic and intuitive - Makes dividends collectible on any day, not just Middas, and adds skill/attribute buff - 6.0 changes the way dividends are collected and removes the extra buff - A merchant's barter gold increases permanently after player buys shares - 6.0 reverts this change - Closes a loophole allowing players to buy more than 1,000 shares - 6.0 removes the cap on shares purchased - Instructions only appear the first time a player activates their first ledger - 5.2 removes this feature because it was causing issues - 7.0 reimplements this feature because it was a good idea - Ledgers found counter only appears first time player activates each ledger

Description
Imperial Stock Exchange adds a realistic stock market simulator to Cyrodiil's economy. In certain shops in each city, you will now find pieces of parchment, known in-game as stock ledgers, that allow you to purchase shares of each store. Hold shares for a weekly cash dividend or sell them for a profit. Buying shares will increase the gold merchants have to barter with, and selling them will lower it.
The first time you open each stock ledger, your mercantile skill will increase by one. Finding all of the ledgers will aid your journey, as many shops will only let you invest in their stock after reaching a certain mercantile skill level. The player must purchase shares at the related store but can then sell them at any time to capitalize on a favorable price. Selling is accomplished via a secondary ledger that appears in your inventory upon purchase of shares.
Version 7.5 changes: - There is now a Toggle Tracking button on every stock ledger - When tracking is active for a specific stock, the stock price appears in the corner of the screen every time the price updates - When tracking is active, the player will have a key in their inventory called "'Stock Tracking" - Equipping the key will allow the player to turn off tracking even if they can't activate a ledger at the moment - Because Imperial City stocks are much more expensive, their stock prices now update much more often
Install using a mod manager or manually by adding the .esp file to your Oblivion\Data folder.
