ANNOUNCEMENT: Trade Blockbuster Warrants and profit from a movie's long run at the box office.

HSX Forums: Stars Board






Like every other factor in making Starbond investments, dROI is a tool that can be used and/or ignored by traders as appropriate.

Posted by: RogerMore on Apr 26, 17:48 in response to RazorHawk's post perfect example of the flaw with droi

The Post-Adjust Bond Show suffers from exactly the same flaws as the ones you mention because all it offers is a snapshot taken at a particular time. The PABS statements are just as affected by changes in prices, release date and Starbond attachments as dROI is.

We are never going to have complete information about a Starbond's next adjust, but dROI helps a lot.  

I found an interesting example of why context is needed wth respect to the Post Adjust Bond Show, with respect to dROI....   Buy StarBond Fund 18 on Apr 26, 12:46

This was not meant as a criticism of your hard work. Only to point out context necessary to make good use of it.   mrbinns on Apr 26, 20:15

um... (don't know what to put here ~ again)   RHAWK on Apr 26, 21:48

Um..How can we search for Fembot's thoughts on trading? {nm}   dioneta on Apr 27, 14:53

um...   RHAWK on Apr 26, 20:50

I suppose it depends what your definition of fun is.   RogerMore on Apr 26, 23:07

"If It Makes You Happy....   RHAWK on Apr 27, 09:04

half of my message is missing :( {nm}   RHAWK on Apr 27, 09:05

Hmmm... if you don't day-trade and you don't use dROI, what Starbond tool do you use?   RogerMore on Apr 27, 10:09

he says they're attached to the same movie, so surely they adjust over the same period {nm}   Jane_Citizen on Apr 27, 00:35

um...   RHAWK on Apr 27, 08:20

to wit:   Jane_Citizen on Apr 28, 19:08

No {nm}   RHAWK on Apr 29, 09:47

Yes, for the purposes of comparing the three examples it is. {nm}   Jane_Citizen on Apr 30, 17:34

no it isn't...   RHAWK on Apr 30, 20:18

Answers...(no fair peeking until you have an answer written down)   Buy StarBond Fund 18 on Apr 26, 12:52

Fantastic debate between some of the heavy hitters!   srrichardson on Apr 26, 23:07

In my experience, actual dROI (rather than calculated dROI) is larger for movies that have a higher next adjust over a span of 3 days.   PRodQuanta on Apr 27, 11:08

Implying that I actually use a mix of both investment strategies and it works great. Thanks to both of you. {nm}   PRodQuanta on Apr 27, 11:10

Heh - I thought I knew what you meant until I read your IM. {nm}   RogerMore on Apr 27, 13:28

I am not sure what you mean because your terminology is off....BUT   Buy StarBond Fund 18 on Apr 27, 20:33

I'm assuming dROI is daily Return On Investment (this very well could be wrong, I haven't checked). My explanation is inside   PRodQuanta on Apr 28, 09:13

This excludes any bounce phenomena {nm}   PRodQuanta on Apr 28, 09:31

This is known as the Bounce. It's something that mrbinns (in particular) does very well, and I assume it's what Razorhawk does also.   RogerMore on Apr 28, 09:39

(Oh actually, it's not the Bounce - but I think my IM still has it) {nm}   RogerMore on Apr 28, 09:41

Yes, I believe you have the gist. Playing the players/the bounce is somewhat different. It boils down to dROI ~ 1.5ROI in first ~1.5 days. {nm}   PRodQuanta on Apr 28, 10:28

I'd short all 3. If they become popular, you can sell at the estimated delist early, otherwise, you will at least cover the 2%, likely more {nm}   arf on Apr 28, 22:41
