How to unlock the Top Trader achievement in A-Train HX - Definitive Guide

You should gain this achievement by using the "Stock Market Method" which is explained on the youtube video, Credit to borandi.

What I did to gain this achievement was start by buying the first 5 stocks that you can see, It easier to watch them go up and when to sell them. Using the same method as Borandi I bought at 7 (sometimes 5) and then sold for 15 or above gaining any easy profit. After earning my first billion I then bought all the stocks and waited for a group of them to go other 15 then sell them all. Rinse and repeat and eventually you'll get this achievement.

Do you know if this is cummulative across multiple scenarios?

I have that feeling as well. I have about 2 or 3 bilion in profit for each scenario i have played but no achievement so far. I will add them all up when i unlock the achievement to see whether they are 10 bilion combined or i have been lucky in that single scenario so you can add that to your solution if you like :)

Well, it seems that it has to be done in the same scenario. I had a total of over 20 bilion spread across the different ones but it only unlocked when i had 10 bilion in a single one (also did it in one session to be safe).

Hey, sorry I don't - if I had to guess, i'd say it would have to be done in the same scenario,

This can take a while, but is pretty straight forward. If you are following the road map, do this on your second map after building the necessary tube stations for Subway Mall Expansion. The easiest way to do this is to start with $4-5 billion and open the Market menu. Use to go to the Stock Market and use the D-Pad if necessary to select Buy Shares. Change shares purchased to the maximum of 10,000,000.

To make money on stock market, as in real life, you want to buy low and sell high. The advantage of this simulator is that it has a cyclical nature that is only psuedo random. You lose 10% of the total price for each transaction, so you need a fairly wide margin to make money. I recommend anything under $8 as the purchase indicator, and anything over $12 to sell. While the game sometimes drops as low as $5 or $6/share, and goes as high as $20, that seems to be pretty rare. The general cycle was $7-14, so those cut offs work well to frequently be able to make money.

Anytime a stock price is in the purchase range, buy 10,000,000 shares. Anytime it is in the sell range, sell all the shares you have in that stock. It is easier to pause and scroll through all 50 or so stocks available so that you have the time to purchase or sell all appropriate stocks. Generally what will happen is that you will end up owning 10,000,000 shares in each company, wait a while, then sell each off as it rises above $12. You then wait until the market drops again, rinse and repeat. Not a fast process by any means, but it does work and depending upon the market cycles, should take less than 2 hours.
