Congratulations to AARP for breaking $100! {nm} Awards Fund Feb 22, 13:55

Congrats and thanks for the profits!! (nm) DTshakes Feb 23, 16:00

Thank You "oneman" for Another Winner! I Look Forward to Buying the Next AARP Fund. {nm} kibitzer Feb 23, 16:48

Top Movie Funds for the Week Awards Fund Feb 21, 12:09

Our shareholders thank you, Mr Grey. {nm} Universal FTW Feb 22, 09:59

Might want to get Comcast added to the history on your stockpage. {nm} socby19 Feb 22, 14:19

what happens when you short an awardoption? {nm} wishdude Feb 21, 11:48

You make a Profit if that AwardOption does not Win an OSCAR. You make a LOSS if that AwardOption does Win. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Feb 21, 16:33

FMTMC just won't stop, why?? skunkrunner Feb 20, 11:38

Sorry, FFTMC {nm} skunkrunner Feb 20, 11:39

Up down Up isn't a roller coaster? {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 11:54

Up big % every day, no overall red days skunkrunner Feb 20, 12:23

How is 3.77 to 3.82 60%? more like 1% {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 12:27

BELLE from the same distributor on the same release weekend made $10M. {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 11:57

1) Just because you find it boring doesn't mean other people do - 2) movement today is reset trading and it's low cost so comission is negli JDolphin Feb 20, 13:22

Can you explain reset trading, since I am asleep at that time :) {nm} skunkrunner Feb 20, 13:35

At midnight HSX resets the 'change today' to 0 for all securities. So it's very easy to spot movement. Sometimes traders pick a stock to JDolphin Feb 20, 13:45

Big advantage to west coasters then, bad for everyone else heading east. skunkrunner Feb 20, 13:52

speak for yourself. In no time you'd be complaining of no movement at all or lack of it. {nm} DiNar0 Feb 20, 21:33

Can someone explain to me the drop of Spiderman 6 ? I don't get it {nm} Flogoo Feb 20, 10:09

More sellers than buyers. {nm} ndmaster Feb 20, 10:55

It seems logical but the Marvel announcement is a good and a strong news for Spidey, there should be more buyers {nm} Flogoo Feb 20, 11:05

And they bought in when the announcement was made, and now are getting out - the movie is a long way away, there's still uncertainty RogerMore Feb 20, 11:14

Reset trading can trump most any news. I didn't know about the marvel news. ndmaster Feb 20, 16:41

rimshot {nm} Dorfman Feb 21, 07:00

Anyone up late nights willing to chat small port strategy? Gets mighty boring here at work. {nm} Grimm Reality Feb 19, 03:23

How far will 50 Shades plunge before it stabilizes? Anyone? (nm) DTshakes Feb 17, 12:17

How far would you like it go {nm} blaze223 Feb 17, 12:37

When she goes down, I like to go all the way down until I'm done. (nm) DTshakes Feb 17, 13:18

+1 {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 17, 20:57

Well, it's going to be a wild ride esp after the second weekend. We'll see what kind of staying power it has. ~JPV~ Feb 17, 16:34

No matter how far the plunge, no vagigi shots. {nm} mrbinns Feb 17, 17:55

It's going to go down, down, down, in a burning ring of fire...especially after the things she let him do to her. {nm} Johnny Ca$h Feb 17, 18:24

Haha -- YES! I can't believe Johnny Ca$h himself just posted this! Just made my hump day. DTshakes Feb 18, 11:40

Wasn't hump day supposed to be on Saturday? :P {nm} DTravel Feb 18, 12:48

Nah, that was hand cuffs + BJ day. (nm) DTshakes Feb 18, 18:05

Well, I suppose that's better then Hand Cuffs & PBJ day. DTravel Feb 20, 12:54

I'm calling shenanigans on a certain high priced super hero movie.. Dorfman Feb 17, 08:32

Inconsistent ..... Irregular ..... There's a Solution for that. Dr. Sanjay Gupta Feb 17, 09:00

Agreed. I spent a significant amount of time Sun & Monday trying to model it and couldn't... Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 17, 09:55

yeah and then today it changes completely.. lol {nm} Dorfman Feb 17, 12:14

Don't try to pull the curtain back. It's a patented formula of some kind "the secret sauce" of HSX, as it were. {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 17, 18:21

Hey - and that's okay :) It is a game (for us) after all :) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 18, 21:10

Players playing the players who are playing the players who have been played by the players. {nm} DTravel Feb 17, 13:32

Seems to be following the general post-ipo movement - going up and down. Just a much bigger commission if you play that. {nm} JDolphin Feb 17, 13:35

No - 2M shares will move it 6 bucks but 24M will move it 2 bucks... weird. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 18, 04:05

were those all long, all short or a mix? {nm} tealfan Feb 18, 12:06

How many trades in a given time period is also a factor. 10M shares traded in 1 hour will not yield the same results as 10M in 10 hours. {nm} DTravel Feb 18, 12:57

I've tracked this on some big ipos and it still doesn't make sense, but It's one of those HSX things you have to learn about and accept {nm} JDolphin Feb 18, 13:14

Agreed JDolphin :) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 18, 21:08

All long - at the time there were very few (and unchanging) short numbers... Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 18, 21:08

Oh, I thought you meant the up and down part. Unfortunately, this seems to be the standard for post ipo of high priced movies. It doesn't JDolphin Feb 18, 13:11

I think it's just a simple tiered system... 170M IPO'd, day 2 took 20m to hit that and that's when... Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 18, 21:10

50 shades of grey? MitchC Feb 16, 18:04

The OW adjusts to exactly what the movie made over the weekend. Therefore, the OW will delist at $94.395M. {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 16, 18:15

based on the actuals, which dont come out til tomorrow night {nm} islander Feb 16, 18:17

It adjusted today, so the price it shows is the adjust price, currently {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 16, 18:16

Oh the derivative - gotcha. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 16, 18:16

do you know that this kind of informatin can be found on the movies board, as well as box office sites like 'box office mojo', 'variety',... islander Feb 16, 18:19

Strategy Question. Doesn't it make for a better profit to sell an adjusted stock instead of flipping/shorting it? Example >> pennystocks2 Feb 16, 16:57

You're missing a step. ndmaster Feb 16, 17:14

You're right. I was missing a step. The shorters still make the same profit I did. Plus the possibility of an additional profit. Thanks! {nm} pennystocks2 Feb 16, 17:34

your thingy is wrong... RazorHawk Feb 16, 17:16

My thingy WAS wrong but I've adjusted it. Feels better now. Thanks to you all for the explanations. {nm} pennystocks2 Feb 16, 17:38

You are Wrong - You are Mixing up Cash Flow & Profits. <INSIDE>. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Feb 16, 17:29

Thanks for the math lessons. Math was never my favorite subject. {nm} pennystocks2 Feb 16, 17:44

Now that 50 Shades has adjusted, do you think it's going higher or lower? buy/sell/hold/short? (nm) DTshakes Feb 16, 14:29

Good question. If you show me yours, I'll show you mine (so to speak) :) {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 16, 14:42

I sold and shorted. Curious to know if this is going to be the wise move. Thought? (nm) DTshakes Feb 16, 15:05

I flipped as well. Nothing is going to move until tomorrow though, so it matters more what people are GOING to do rather than what they Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 16, 15:26

She's got legs but will they be tied up {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 16:03

Always Enjoy the HandCuffs Humour. {nm} Christian Grey Feb 16, 16:55

Twilight, Magic Mike, the 2 Sex and the City films all had at least a 60% dropoff in their 2nd weekends and mantleclinic Feb 16, 16:19

I can't see it having legs. I think TSSRV will though {nm} CjGaughan Feb 16, 15:08

Agree with you there {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 16:04

Shorted. Since I'm a Fund and my holdings are public, I think I can say I'm expecting at least a 10% return on that short position. {nm} Universal FTW Feb 16, 15:16

Shorted. Anyone who wanted to see it, saw it. Would Magic Mike be a good example to follow? {nm} Steved1998 Feb 16, 15:21

it had a nice weekend and now is going to experience shrinkage {nm} RazorHawk Feb 16, 17:21

Hey - the water's cold :) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 18, 04:06

With the 50SHD adjust, UNIVX has hit an all-time high of 54.85. This has been a blast, how high can we go? {nm} Universal FTW Feb 16, 10:23

If yours was a regular movie fund I would guess possibly as high as 100. LOL Alas it is not. {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 13:21

Why would that be a limitation? I've already passed more than half of the regular funds that started with H$20 million. {nm} Universal FTW Feb 16, 14:01

Cause regular funds delist at 100 {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 16:04

I was making a joke. {nm} Dorfman Feb 16, 16:04

Gotcha! I thought you were trying to hold me down :) {nm} Universal FTW Feb 16, 18:14

Sky's the limit, pal! {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 16, 13:26

i hit the 60s prior to the delist in 2013 {nm} Steved1998 Feb 16, 14:11

Awesome! I'm sure I was a shareholder, thanks for the profits. {nm} Universal FTW Feb 16, 15:13

if you pass $100, you get a reward RazorHawk Feb 16, 17:24

Thought on the bloodbath DTravel Feb 15, 09:46

If it's to be a bloodbath, let it be now. Appeasement is not the answer. - Ronald Reagan {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 15, 19:27

Just noticed a ~50M gap in the LTD* rankings - between traders 271 and 272. * Lifetime-to-date Facto Feb 15, 06:51

So...as you know...that's why it's so hard to move up 2-3 spots at that level...I'm lucky to move up 5 in many months! {nm} Flash Feb 15, 08:08

You should try the top 100. :) {nm} Rocket123 aka PVL Admin Feb 15, 19:32

SO whats the over and under on AVG3 not even selling 150m shares today? {nm} Dorfman Feb 14, 09:36

80M+ sold at the time of this post (4 hours after going on sale). Would guess most of the big spenders are in already. {nm} Bsmurf Feb 14, 13:02

100M+ sold now. What happens to the price if all 150m don't sell by end of trading day? (nm) DTshakes Feb 14, 16:11

Nothing. The stock just doesn't start moving until stocks are purchased after reset. {nm} Bugs Feb 14, 16:16

The Avengers: Infinity War IPO is debuting at 350!? Avengers 2 was a lot less than that. Shouldn't they be the same? CactusLand Feb 14, 09:11

different people have different idea's.. AVG closed out at over 500.. Different reasons have been discussed ever since the IPO showed up Dorfman Feb 14, 09:33

Why should they be the same? {nm} RogerMore Feb 14, 09:52

I was saying they should be the same because they are estimated based on the performance of the previous entry in the series. CactusLand Feb 14, 10:13

By that reasoning AVNG3 should be IPOing above $500 since AVNGR delisted at ~$524 Bruce Banner Feb 14, 10:21

That's not the only factor. How much traders are willing to pay is another. And traders are buying at the current price. {nm} Roger More Feb 14, 10:35

Avenger 3 should be 5 dollars. {nm} mike255 Feb 14, 10:34

and 300m shares have to be sold. lol {nm} Anastasia Steele Feb 14, 12:30

Top Movie Funds for the Week Awards Fund Feb 14, 08:19

let the bleeding begin...whats your strategy? ride it out or flip/take advantage of the sheep {nm} CjGaughan Feb 13, 21:01

I'm a rider... Unless I know specific assets that I need to sell, I can't clear an entire portfolio. DTshakes Feb 13, 22:18

Why this bleeding? {nm} DarthKbdoe Feb 14, 12:53

What's bleeding? Are you okay? (nm) DTshakes Feb 14, 15:48

i ride it out....they'll all go back up again {nm} horrorfanatic Feb 14, 12:10

I'm riding it out as well (to the tune of -14M in less than 48 hours). Many of the big stocks that are taking the hit... Willroast Feb 14, 13:41

I've always been a ride-it-out guy, but this time I tried a half-flip strategy: jjmarino Feb 14, 13:46

[AWARD] Initial report to shareholders (Feb 13 / 2015) Awards Fund Feb 13, 17:23

Always a Pleasure to Buy AWARDS FUND Managed by Rocket 123! {nm} kibitzer Feb 13, 07:50

Agreed! (or maybe... a-greed!) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Feb 13, 11:36
