Question about the trading floor scene?


After the Dukes' went bankrupt did the other traders suffer by losing some money in the process of Valentine and Winthorpe trying to get back at the Dukes'?

Good point; by definition, Valentine and Winthorpe can't make money "trading" without someone else losing it

I guess we let it slide on the grounds that anyone throwing their money into the game runs the risk of losing
