21. 0z = -|z| for all z (resulting in the approximate expression (41)) is essentially equivalent to the Maxwell construction put forward in [20] for mixed Minority/Majority Games. This approximation (as well as that of Eq. (42)) is then verified a posteriori by comparison with results from simulations. Both approximate expressions give good agreement with the numerical data, see Figure 4

33. 1 in the simulations, we find that the quantitative values of the data for the uncorrelated case (ρ = 0) can depend on these parameters. This does not, however, affect the key qualitative observation of an increasing oscillation amplitude as M is increased.
34. c(ρ = 0) = 1. This seems to persist also for larger values of P or M and/or for longer running times. It is at present unclear whether this constitutes a systematic effect or whether it is an artifact due to limitations in the numerical simulations. Note also that similar observations were made for the on-line case with real market histories (ρ = 0 and M = 1) [31].
