Nielsen to tackle streaming ratings Mar 26, 10:59
will be useless until they can track all views including tablets and phones {nm} Mar 26, 11:26
A problem Mar 26, 11:40
Nielson doesnt track international households so they wouldnt be setting up this technology in those homes {nm} Mar 26, 12:13
They should also track TiVo recordings of shows people 'download' to watch at a later time, too...big audience there! {nm} Mar 27, 09:04
They already do that if you watch it within 7 days. {nm} Mar 27, 11:21

How about a Celluloid Ceiling Fund?... (more) Mar 26, 10:41
Yeah - a strange irony. {nm} Mar 26, 13:40
qty is low isn't a reason, just means you got to work harder. {nm} Mar 26, 14:12
Which -- with only 54 eligible MovieStocks -- you've been doing extremely well. Hat tip! {nm} Mar 26, 16:04
So there's a new Fund IPOing next Tuesday, SEETV, and it's pretty much the bomb. Mission statement inside... Mar 26, 06:50
So.... You wrote all that and did not once say what the actual theme and limitations of the fund ARE... {nm} Mar 26, 07:33
But just for kicks...The limitations are that they need (or needed) to be featured members of their show. Main cast basically. Mar 26, 07:50
So anyone who is credited as a "Regular" on a TV show (i.e. before the "Guest Starring" listing in the credits). Mar 26, 12:49
I've been going through the (massive) list of Starbonds and looking for the ones that qualify... Mar 26, 14:29
Is okay. But to address your longer post explaining qualifications.... Mar 26, 21:43
This is really interesting stuff DTravel (especially the neat stuff about Lost in Space). (more) Mar 26, 23:34
Great call JDolphin. I had considered Downton Abbey as well but have not yet gotten to any of their SBs in my research. Mar 27, 19:11
Another issue to consider - do Premium Channel or Streaming/VOD series count? Mar 28, 12:51
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS!! {nm} Mar 26, 07:40
What a GREAT IDEA! {nm} Mar 26, 10:11
Limitations? Mar 26, 10:34

UNIVX Shareholder Update: All the Eggs in One FAST7 Basket. {nm} Mar 24, 13:23
....and now for the rest of the post: Mar 24, 13:24
"market cap and short interest"... too funny. Mar 24, 13:27
Awesome work. I think you're right on the money with that FAST7 prediction. {nm} Mar 24, 15:33
Also, I wish LGFX could invest! Everyone else should... {nm} Mar 24, 15:42
(ugh, invest "in UNIVX" I mean) {nm} Mar 24, 15:48
Thanks LGFX. Would you believe UNIVX ranks 19 of 25 in total shareholders. You are 20. What sense does that make? {nm} Mar 24, 16:51

MoviePilot: Prediction weren't that off...Insurgent 56, Do You Believe? 6, Gunman 7 Mar 23, 11:59
its still pointless to look at these after actuals are coming in {nm} Mar 23, 12:25
Your Absolutely right, my mistake - those are the estimates still off of The-Numbers....inside Actuals Mar 23, 12:39
He meant the actuals that are coming in on Friday. {nm} Mar 23, 12:51
It's pointless and misleading to say it will do better than Divergent when actual box office already says otherwise. {nm} Mar 23, 12:28
Also, publishing predictions on Friday around noon after Thu box office has been reported make it suspect for "cheating". {nm} Mar 23, 12:34
I meant MP could use Thu evening box office when coming out with their predictions. {nm} Mar 23, 12:49

It's been a while since I played, and I'm rusty. When do moviestocks start to fluctuate again following an adjust? {nm} Mar 22, 10:40

Adam Sandler - & I'm not understanding how TAGs work? Mar 22, 06:41
you are using the delist #s for you math... you need to use 'gross' {nm} Mar 22, 07:38
Thx - what's the difference? What does Gross represent different from Delist price {nm} Mar 22, 10:24
The delist price is how much it earns in 4 weeks of wide release at the box office (or 12 for limited releases) Mar 22, 11:23
thx {nm} Mar 22, 12:01
Which {nm} Mar 24, 09:09
Which 'gross' is the one used for purposes of TAG calculation? (nm) Mar 24, 09:10
If a movie doesn't report box office, stars are detached from it and it doesn't affect the TAG {nm} Mar 22, 07:49
Gotcha - so if they report the small amount from The Cobbler hisTAG will drop, if not it'll stay up {nm} Mar 22, 10:22

RogerMore - question... Mar 20, 18:28
The prediction I use from boxoffice.com is their weekend prediction, and not their long-range forecast. Mar 22, 15:29
LRF had Cinderella $66M opening & Insurgent $53M opening - I am curious about long term accuracy {nm} Mar 22, 16:54
I'm away from things at the moment, but I can take another look in a week or two. {nm} Mar 22, 20:26
short any and all development stocks {nm} Mar 20, 16:13
No point in shorting a 10-cent stock. The upside is to buy and hold... for the occasional, long-range, humongous gainer. {nm} Mar 20, 16:38
There are a gazillion development films above 10 cents {nm} Mar 20, 22:01
Right. My comment was to counter your "any and all". See? {nm} Mar 21, 09:15
Always Enjoy the Cash & Profits when those SHORT MovieStocks under 0.10 are Dead-Delisted. Mar 21, 16:36
I surprised myself. I own all of them between $50 and $100. Mar 23, 18:39
So you're shorting all the Superhero stocks? and various other disney, etc. {nm} Mar 21, 17:48
No, only ones in development. Mar 22, 08:15
Yes, there are some price parameters, but other than that, I literally short all of the MST in Development phase. Mar 22, 15:29
Try this SHORT Strategy <INSIDE>. Mar 23, 10:52
I short anything above 5 bucks. Mar 23, 18:27
I just realized you meant development in general, not hsx development phase {nm} Mar 22, 14:17
Kind of hard to suggest not seeing your port. Mar 20, 19:03
Buy starbonds {nm} Mar 21, 05:04
With a port your size, it shouldn't be hard to chew through $100M.. Mar 21, 09:52
^^In my post above, I mentioned Comingsoon.com...it's really Comingsoon.NET Sorry. {nm} Mar 21, 09:56
For SciFi fund... Mar 20, 10:06
2 posts in one Mar 20, 13:16
can you elaborate on the only using 10-20% of the stocks part please...This is interesting insight...Thnx! {nm} Mar 20, 13:29
It's down to the criteria of the fund... Mar 20, 13:43
Good post. Running a studio fund is much more challenging than I expected due to the limited number of options... Mar 20, 13:39
THIS is why i wont take on the task of restarting the horror fund. it requires someone who knows what their doing {nm} Mar 20, 14:48
But you learn by doing - I lost 2m in my first week! {nm} Mar 20, 16:42
Thanks srrichardson as the previous mananager. I have something to add. Mar 20, 17:49
Fund managers are HEROs in my book :) {nm} Mar 20, 19:13
It's not all doom and gloom though :-) Mar 20, 22:57
You might not get a response if Antibody doesn't like your idea Mar 21, 01:07
( when I say "gimmicky reasons" I mean that my idea may have been gimmicky, not the reasons for it being shot down. Mar 21, 01:27
I heard back on OPENRFUND within a month or two. Not really that long a wait {nm} Mar 21, 07:21
That is true, It is certainly not gloom and doom either. I enjoy it very much. {nm} Mar 21, 05:24
Question. How much are you given to manage the Fund? It's separate from your own PORT $$$ account? {nm} Mar 21, 17:19
It's a separate account - you start with H$20M Mar 22, 00:59
Thanks - So all fund start @ $20 dollars... {nm} Mar 22, 09:02
Studio funds start at 10M but run for a year, regular funds start at 20M and delist at 100m - no time limit {nm} Mar 22, 09:47
SCARF is currently murdering UNIVX. I wish I could send BORN5 and JURA4 to take him out. {nm} Mar 20, 09:45
taking over an abandoned fund? Do you necessarily have to a port of $100M to do so if the dedication is there? Mar 20, 09:33
You need to prove you are capable of reaching H$100M. Mar 20, 09:45
I'll get to $100m in due time - I'm not positive? I encourage others through competitive spirit, no? too bad you feel that way Mar 20, 09:55
The big blockbuster warrants are my metric for how many more or less active traders there are. Mar 19, 14:22
i,ve seen that list...its a bit difficult to find yourself on there. no matter. forward...ever forward... {nm} Mar 19, 14:47
You're haven't been on it yet, but now that you're in the top 10k you'll be there from here on out. {nm} Mar 19, 15:08
Do not forget about Saturday Ipo? {nm} Mar 19, 16:07
That's a good point. Biggest ones recently are Avengers 3 and Star Wars 8 Mar 19, 17:36

So well said CdMV. Even more than the daily news (which I rarely play). posts like this are why I come to these boards. {nm} Mar 20, 02:53
Agreed. Well said Cdmv {nm} Mar 20, 06:01
your no jerk & I appreciate your candor remarks - may I say a few things inside... Mar 20, 08:41
The appropriate Port Value League for your port size is good way to see how you measure up {nm} Mar 20, 02:18
The right league can go a long way toward getting you to $100M. PVL is a great place to start... Mar 20, 12:34
appreciated.... {nm} Mar 20, 13:03
To answer your question Aleks.. the PVL leagues are always great, because you are competing against other ports your size. Mar 20, 06:02
Did he reach 10k rank {nm} Mar 20, 02:00
It appears it may make more sense to build account $$$ value first and than look at leagues...THNX 4 responses... {nm} Mar 20, 09:07
Actual Ranking vs. Active Members is hard to predict. <inside> Mar 20, 09:46
I'm -25,005 so I'm rapidly moving up it appears...inside for u SciFi Mar 20, 10:03
Newbie question about Advanced Trading Mar 18, 23:39
You do have it a little bit backwards = it assumes you want to maximise your profits Mar 19, 02:19
Thanks so much srrichardson! Mar 19, 08:24
srrichardson, Do you completely trust that Starbonds will adjust with enough accuracy ... Mar 19, 11:38
The TAGs update on Monday after 5pm PT, so you know exactly what the adjust price will be on Tuesday. {nm} Mar 19, 12:41
Yes and No - but thanks to the way Halted to Active works with limit orders it doesn't matter most of the time Mar 20, 02:16
THIS IS FANTASTIC ADVICE! I do this as well. {nm} Mar 20, 02:21
