The two bars in the middle represent the amount of stuff available on the market (yellow bar), and it's current price (blue). In white is the price as a function of time, and the text at the top gives you the price changes. Click anywhere except on a button to get instantaneous price and stuff levels in the scrolling text. There are four players, each with a certain amount of money (green), and amount of stuff (yellow). The number in red is the player's net worth, i.e. capital + current value of stuff. You are player 0 on the left, and you can buy or sell one unit of stuff at a time. Players 1,2 and 3 act by themselves, but you may also force player 1 to buy or sell one unit whenever you want. Are you smart enough to beat players 2 and 3? It shouldn't be too hard now, but they're gonna get better.
Future versions will support multiple human players, each accessing TREX from anywhere on the net and playing each other as well as programmed players like 1,2, and 3 above.
