Hi burj,
If you look at the rules, you'll see that we have to work on a 20 minute delayed price, so you're actually given the price that the stock was trading at at exactly 10.11am
We can't pretend that the competition is perfect, so the only way we could make it closer to real market conditions is to only use a close price, as our data filter doesn't allow the open price unless we change the time buys and sells are actioned.
It's set so that we have as close to possible to the open price once all stocks are trading, so obviously there's a little wiggle room on stocks htat have the earlier alpha numeric start.
At 10.11am you'd have been given either 61 or 63cents, depending on the clock accuracy!
