As category editor, I usually use Reuters to check on all the markets at one convenient site. But the definite settlement source is the stock exchange site itself. But in general, any of the widely used financial sites can give you the information you need to make your decisions throughout the trading day.

Remember...these 'in play' markets do close before the exchanges do...

Hope you enjoy . . . on a volatile day it really can be quite interesting!!!!

@crowe - Bear has been running these daily since Feb, they just haven't been advertised on the site well. Hopefully with the new "in play" icons and dashboard it will be easier for players to find and enjoy these quite exciting markets. (Personally I can't wait to run some Entertainment InPlays once American Idol starts back up!)
