Playing & Trading Strategy

hopefully this is the right board for this ... when will the award options cash out? Keplar_the_Templar Mar 11, 07:20

Probably. More important: At least 15 traders* had Lily Gladstone short. If they rode it up to 14, then shorted, that was deftly played. SenJohnBlutarsky Mar 11, 09:24

Kaigee's been updated, but there is an error with DBAUT. {nm} Rocket Mar 09, 10:51

Looks like HSX may have reused an old MST symbol and that's throwing things off. {nm} KaiGee Mar 09, 17:04

The top 10k for the year shows Jan 2023 - Mar 2024. Top 100 shows correctly. {nm} MattW Mar 10, 16:14

DSTHT appears to be selling for less than its current box office {nm} terraformingearth Mar 07, 06:55

You mean it's "ARB"? (ie) Priced lower than current BO? {nm} Rocket Mar 07, 07:58

Hopefully it continues to report Weekend BO, otherwise it will be back to the last reported weekend just like The Chosen series has. {nm} Workinman Mar 07, 15:16

Does it have to report weekend? Box Office Mojo has numbers for Mon-Wed. {nm} terraformingearth Mar 08, 07:17

Yes, HSX only tracks Weekend for delist. For example… Workinman Mar 08, 09:32

Question about what seems some 'strategy' for Opening Weekend Derivative ballpark_frank Mar 06, 13:07

Its a "cover your posterior" strategy. Most of the time one of them will make more money than the other loses, so its DTravel Mar 06, 16:26

Thanks. Sort of thought that (especially considering the low prices involved). {nm} ballpark_frank Mar 06, 18:10

How, pray tel, are you deducing that you can tell what others are doing? Just trading volume? ndmaster Mar 06, 17:47

Yes (the 'trending' I mentioned). When (example) 75% shares are long for both CALL and PUT. {nm} ballpark_frank Mar 06, 18:10

Unless its overwhelming, like 3million longs versus 200,000 shorts, still not much info in that ndmaster Mar 07, 16:39

meant for that to say 30 million longs {nm} ndmaster Mar 07, 16:40

I should know this after 23 years playing this game... TheWeekendWarrior Mar 05, 22:25

Found this - HighLightDark Mar 06, 02:24

Only thing wrong with your answer is one film in TAG. No adjust there. {nm} ndmaster Mar 06, 17:49

FYI to everyone...you can find the info that NIght posted in the helpful Glossary...I think there's a link at the bottom of every page {nm} tealfan Mar 06, 09:41

Smaller ports, in case you missed it: WONKA.BW delists this week, at around 51.76; making it about 30.64 ARB (or approx +766K / +59%). Rocket Mar 03, 08:33

Poll, of sorts... What is your max gaining +$ and +% value in your port (no stock names). I have one at +$20.28M and one at +110127.55%. {nm} Rocket Mar 02, 10:08

$23m and 36,866.67% (different stocks) {nm} lapuckfan Mar 06, 09:54

Is there a rule-of-thumb multiplier, or some reference for using preview numbers to predict OW (aside from other factors)? {nm} ballpark_frank Mar 01, 17:03

There used to be a few incredible charts floating around; people kept track of every week's preview numbers on an excel. Awesome. {nm} goodvibe61 Mar 02, 16:13

I know tracking has been good lately but I bet against Dune in all opportunities this time. Guillo Mar 01, 11:24

Dune 2 made $12M on Thursday... so it appears to be heading towards a very good weekend. {nm} JoshuaL Mar 02, 05:38

Now $32M on Friday... Dune 2 might reach 100M by Sunday or Monday {nm} JoshuaL Mar 02, 15:27

I got it wrong but still I get wash. Like I said I had far more chances of making something if it went the other way. {nm} Guillo Mar 03, 10:13

Focusing too much on my fantasy soccer team, completely missed AELLI {nm} SirWinstonNewkirk Feb 21, 10:44

😮 {nm} Rocket Feb 21, 13:44

I am bleeding today but tomorrow should be green enough to give hermit the frog a complex. Guillo Feb 19, 07:40

1.4 M effect if you consider that part of that profit is already counted in. For me is a good result for derivatives. {nm} Guillo Feb 19, 07:52

Re: Dune2: Are there many sequels/2nd parts that do as much better than the original as this is priced to do? {nm} terraformingearth Feb 13, 09:34

NM-I just realized Part 1 was when a lot of people wouldn't go to theaters. {nm} terraformingearth Feb 13, 09:42

Matthew Macfadyen is a dud listing today. Already pre-calculated at post-deadpool adjust. No money there for some time... Rocket Feb 11, 12:55

I calculate the same for what it is worth. {nm} DTravel Feb 11, 13:08

Has anyone figured out when TZOIN delists? {nm} grammar Feb 03, 00:58

March 5, 2024 - thanks Kaigee :) {nm} grammar Feb 03, 01:04
