Agreed 2 years to release thats basically dead money unless your consistently sitting on some {nm} smeagol88 Oct 27, 17:05

Even if you reckon its going to open well over 100mill smeagol88 Oct 27, 17:21

Thanks. I'm still small, but now that I've hit ~$45 Mil I'm having trouble keeping all my cash in something worthwhile. {nm} nkliph3 Oct 28, 04:59

That'll all change in a few weeks when the Christmas movies kick in srrichardson Oct 28, 06:29

Great! I need a place to ask newbie questions without having to hear a load of )@#W from miserable players like RazorHawk below... {nm} nkliph3 Oct 27, 08:17

hmmm, I don't think publicly disrespecting the Dude is that smart... Lucky_Muppet Oct 27, 09:49

Sure RH can defend himself but when you put as much effort into HSX as he does you might get a little testy with daftness blaze223 Oct 27, 12:58

"...get a little testy with daftness". These attitudes sure make the newbies feel welcome, let me tell ya. {nm} nkliph3 Oct 27, 16:34

Welcome to the Drizzle Drano World of Helping Hands. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 27, 16:52

While the same questions DO tend to get asked over and over by new players, I've found most players will try to help with an answer... Flash Oct 27, 14:57

Dear nkliph3, thank you for your interest in the RazorHawk's HSX School League, your application has been rejected, have a nice day. {nm} RazorHawk Oct 27, 16:07

Oh So SWEET. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 27, 16:48

All I can do is try to pick up the pieces and move on. {nm} nkliph3 Oct 27, 16:51

Fwiw, razor has an edge, but he's by far the most valuable person to learn from on these boards. {nm} Moviesnob Oct 27, 22:33

Depends what One wants to Learn - would put Oleg Max at the Top of the Learning Heap. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 27, 23:48

No one is criticising you for asking newbie questions. RogerMore Oct 27, 15:58

Fair enough. RogerMore I did find your HSX blog per recommendation. Very helpful stuff for new players, nicely done. {nm} nkliph3 Oct 27, 16:17

Keep Asking Questions - that's one of the Best Ways to Learn. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 27, 16:49

Thanks, glad you like it. And any questions you have, just ask them here. {nm} RogerMore Oct 27, 18:21

Is there a way to see intra-day movie stock activity? {nm} nkliph3 Oct 24, 09:57

<INSIDE>. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 24, 10:09

HSX Navigation Bar --> On The Exchange --> Moviestocks {nm} RazorHawk Oct 24, 10:13

By Intra-day I meant charted progress throughout the day, as one might see on the stockmarket... nkliph3 Oct 24, 11:20

Thanks <INSIDE> nkliph3 Oct 24, 11:24

I think theun4gven site is exactly what you want. It uses javascript, so that needs to be enabled. Charts on HSX use javascript also. {nm} JDolphin Oct 24, 12:33

Great! Will be checking on another PC soon... {nm} nkliph3 Oct 24, 12:36

It only works for Movie Stocks. does not work for derivatives or star bonds or funds {nm} JDolphin Oct 24, 18:07

Yep, it's what you want. Then, what you want is... edzep - Port Monkey! Oct 24, 14:46

Is there an HSX suggestions box? nkliph3 Oct 24, 08:34

You should take the time to learn the game... before you start trying to change it. RazorHawk Oct 24, 09:13

While I agree completely with you in this particular case, sometimes fresh eyes and new ideas are good for progress. PVL Admin Oct 24, 09:23

Thanks... nkliph3 Oct 24, 09:32

Try buying 100k shares of AVNG2 with a H$2m port... Lucky_Muppet Oct 24, 09:19

Or join a league that measures % gains against similar port values ;) PVL Admin Oct 24, 09:22

Now where could we find one of those.... Hmmm..... :P {nm} DTravel Oct 24, 12:26

You should read RogerMore's site HSXSanity - "Because there are no dumb questions, but some questions get asked an awful lot." (link) JDolphin Oct 24, 11:12

Also...HSX uses stock purchases to SELL data to the studios, networks, etc... and if I could buy 1M shares... Flash Oct 25, 08:30

How many theatres to count as wide release on HSX i've forgotten {nm} smeagol88 Oct 22, 17:54

650 Domestically. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 22, 18:56

Do any sites/sources speculate on movie opening estimates well before opening weekend? nkliph3 Oct 22, 11:23

During the 5 or so days leading up to release a lot of sites give their prediction and more often than not tracking info comes out. MattW Oct 22, 11:40

boxoffice.com has a long range forecast. It's based on social media + guesswork, and obviously before the marketing campaign gets into full RogerMore Oct 23, 08:07

<HAD> - <PAST TENSE> ever since the 3-Day Ray Subers / BOM Whatever. We'll see if it comes back. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 23, 12:51

What percentage of movies do you short after the OW adjust and hold to delist? MattW Oct 13, 10:54

It depends what genre of movie is on offer Lucky_Muppet Oct 13, 11:06

I'd go with this answer. And the more front-loaded, the more I'm likely to short a movie {nm} JDolphin Oct 14, 21:39

bookmark {nm} perply1 Oct 23, 18:42

2.7 is across all films. genre is a big piece. so is release date and release pattern. rogermore has some good data on this {nm} Moviesnob Oct 13, 23:20

Most of 'em. ndmaster Oct 14, 06:54

Anyone have any idea what happened with the Boxofficemojo web site? Is this to be a permanent change? {nm} project Oct 11, 14:19

And any suggestions on an alternative source of info in a similar format to the prior Boxofficemojo? {nm} project Oct 11, 14:20

there is nothing out there like mojo. Numbers and boxoffice.com dont have close to the same detail {nm} Moviesnob Oct 11, 14:43

I just tried the Box Office Mojo url and its there now. (Sat 7pm PST) {nm} DTravel Oct 11, 19:18

Do you hold a Moviestock if it exceeds expectations through the weekend? nkliph3 Oct 10, 14:11

The Adjust is on Sunday. After that, the Box Office is the Determining Factor for Delist. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 10, 14:43

here is how it works... RazorHawk Oct 10, 15:42

Thanks for this helpful info. nkliph3 Oct 12, 11:26
