Being stuck in a 80s power metal/Manic street Preachers time warp whats the best pick for the Grammys blaze223 Dec 19, 11:53

Me: buy one share of each; watch inital movement; go with the flow. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Dec 19, 13:58

Quasi-Guaranteed Strategy - Short the 2 or 3 that have little or no Chance - Long the others. Works every time. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 19, 17:30

If you don't know the artists - how do you know what chance they have? {nm} JDolphin Dec 19, 18:57

You ask someone who does - or Post here to get some Tips / Hints / Clues. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 19, 20:28

Isn't that what Blaze did? {nm} JDolphin Dec 19, 23:57

HINT (FWIW): The Top 2 Selling Singles of 2013 are 'Blurred Lines' (1.44M) & 'Get Lucky' (1.28M). {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 19, 20:27

Would have chosen Avicii's 'Wake Me Up' (# 3 Selling Single of 2013 - 1.12M) over any of the 5. (VIDEO). RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 19, 20:34

eyescovered, I just saw your question in the Port Monkeys league. Got it fixed. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Dec 19, 10:05

Thanks! Good to go! :) {nm} eyescovered Dec 20, 04:06

How do you handle HSX when going on vacation with none (or little) Internet? Just cash out all positions close to release or what? {nm} Raven9167 Dec 17, 15:57

What's this Vacation Thingy you talk about? See Inside. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 17, 17:38

Last time avoided that weeks OW and sold off the moviestock and just hoped nothing crazy went on blaze223 Dec 18, 02:12

Make sure I only stay in motels with free WiFi. {nm} DTravel Dec 17, 18:04

Don't worry about it. This game has no finish line. {nm} ndmaster Dec 18, 07:47

Bring a tablet. Go to local your mcdonald. Get free wifi internet mike255 Dec 18, 09:56

Like Yoda order meal. {nm} DTravel Dec 18, 11:19

Repeat to yourself many times: "It's only play money, it's only play money..." (more) Flash Dec 18, 12:16

Unless u invest bitcoin {nm} mike255 Dec 18, 12:24

In which case China will tell you "Its only play money, its only play money...." :D {nm} DTravel Dec 18, 17:18

Check out the movies that will be released while you're gone JohnTEQP Dec 18, 21:30

a million dollar day. great. ive done that before. but how to turn it into a 2 million dollar day thats the question that evades me...dammit {nm} horrorfanatic Dec 17, 13:46

If you would have invested in all of the starbonds that were adjusting today that were big dollars you would have had $2M {nm} Quickslver99 Dec 17, 14:08

When I first started out I had mostly starbonds in my port and didn't keep any long term movie stocks until after I got to 50M at least... Quickslver99 Dec 17, 14:12

It was actually 3.7mil! While a port Horror's size can't afford to own all the starbonds, buying just 4 of the lower priced ones for under JDolphin Dec 17, 15:48

meh...starbonds...always starbonds..the mathematics which always evade me dammit it all....adjusting? wtf? what does that mean im a person w horrorfanatic Dec 17, 16:04

Check Elchan's Site or KaiGee's Site. You won't even need a Calculator. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 17, 17:26

Could have Afforded the Top Seven (7) Adjust StarBonds for a +3.04 MILL Profit today. Less Commissions. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 17, 17:29

Yeah. Starbonds are where it's at. Consistent money every Tuesday. thatmichaelguy Dec 17, 23:21

Day trade on news, that's how I got my first $2M day, with your port size. As everyone said, StarBonds is consistent money. elchan2012 Dec 21, 07:35

Just a small milestone into the top 3000 today blaze223 Dec 16, 13:24

congrats! {nm} tealfan Dec 16, 15:07

Nicely Done. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 16, 16:32

c {nm} PVL Admin Dec 16, 16:55

congrats! {nm} perply1 Dec 16, 17:04

I know this has probably been asked before, but if a star dies, does their stock cash out at current price or their tag? {nm} Quickslver99 Dec 16, 07:41

TAG. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 16, 08:40

After you've done your research and you feel you're holding a stock the right way, how much fluctuation do you grant to day trading before thatmichaelguy Dec 15, 17:10

Depends on several factors - stock price, confidence in position, how close to release/delist, time have to watch for further move/turnaroun {nm} JDolphin Dec 15, 17:46

ouch. went into my port and eliminated anything that no longer had any business there. stuff ive had since i started, back when i was buying horrorfanatic Dec 14, 17:05

Would have gone with Paul McCartney's 'Uncle Albert'. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 14, 21:21

At your level its all shortterm turnover blaze223 Dec 15, 10:22

Dose anyone have any nominoption strategies they would like to share? Initial purchases, midgame, last choices? {nm} PVL Admin Dec 12, 10:01

^Does^ {nm} PVL Admin Dec 12, 10:01

Early on, I just play with the masses. I'll adjust to my actual picks later {nm} lapuckfan Dec 12, 10:08

I have the same plan this year - at least for the Nominoptions. For AwardOptions, i may play with a strategy at IPO. {nm} aggie2145 Dec 12, 12:28

I was planning on my intial purchase to be based on the buy short ratio..... Quickslver99 Dec 12, 10:11

Do the exact opposite of what you do - it works every time. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 12, 10:23

We don't have a humour based relationship. I'm glad you specified this was a joke. So, LOL, I guess. {nm} PVL Admin Dec 12, 11:19

I'm pretty conservative...I play a lot of shorts and just a few longs...same with AwardOptions actually {nm} tealfan Dec 12, 15:08

my nominoptios strategem jaymel Dec 13, 07:43

oops jaymel Dec 13, 07:52

Nominoptions: There's NO faster way to buy them than Chimp... edzep - Port Monkey! Dec 12, 09:39

LOVE your chimp btw! Does he like bananas? (Thinking about xmas gifts) :) {nm} PVL Admin Dec 12, 09:59

Chimp is great. {nm} Quickslver99 Dec 12, 10:07

[AFRAM] 3 has passed $100 and is ready for delist {nm} RazorHawk Dec 11, 14:28

Congrats RazorHawk...IPO to delist in just over 5 months! {nm} aggie2145 Dec 11, 14:45

Congratulations {nm} oneman Dec 11, 15:01

Wish we could buy more shares than 10K! {nm} forlorne Dec 12, 06:56

Bice run RH! {nm} EuroFund Dec 14, 10:11

Hsx Grammy music award again this year? mike255 Dec 10, 23:36

The calendar is your friend. {nm} socby19 Dec 11, 09:02

Seeking advice and guidance.... Confused Man Dec 10, 19:52

NO - NO - NO - NO. (See Inside). Just One (1) Opinion. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 10, 21:42

Could you tell me how you were able to determine how much you were holding of each type of security in terms of value? {nm} Raven9167 Dec 11, 15:11

Sure. Click on 'CLICK HERE' at the Bottom of your Portfolio Page to show Summary Totals. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 11, 16:23

Thank you!! That was really bothering me. {nm} Raven9167 Dec 11, 16:55

Nobody can tell you how to spend your money, it all depends on your own preferences/strategies. Having said that, check this out: PVL Admin Dec 10, 22:27

...oh wait, I had more than 400 mil. I was responding to someone with 400 mil. That's why the number was in the example. {nm} PVL Admin Dec 10, 22:35

This was great advice! Thank you to all!! {nm} Confused Man Dec 11, 00:22

Good luck H-Mogul with the next incarnation of the Brits Fund blaze223 Dec 10, 09:44

No Scots!! *grin* {nm} DTravel Dec 10, 12:11

Another brilliant IPO.....[BRITS] looking forward to a fast turnaround {nm} mrbinns Dec 10, 19:35

when does box office thru 12/06 post? {nm} laujer Dec 09, 17:20

shortly before Cashouts are posted - see Announcements or Movie forums for post from Anitbody {nm} JDolphin Dec 09, 18:42

why is JNGLB moving already? not that im complaining but i was under the impression that stocks didnt rise or fall on ipo day {nm} horrorfanatic Dec 09, 16:38

HSX sets amount of IPO shares for each stock - if that many are bought long before reset then stock moves {nm} JDolphin Dec 09, 16:41

ah...got it. thank you {nm} horrorfanatic Dec 09, 16:44

When does a ms like CMANU delist? Is there a time limit? Should i take a loss or wait for a bigger loss(delist)? {nm} JPS13 Dec 08, 15:35

That information is in the FAQ, see inside. DTravel Dec 08, 16:55

At HSX's discretion, but generally it has to be at least three years since the last news on the project. More info @ hsxsanity (link inside) RogerMore Dec 08, 19:01

Only *you* can decide 'when' to sell off a stock, bond, etc...be wary of anyone to who tells you to buy, sell, etc., any security. {nm} Flash Dec 09, 07:49

Aaand, if you're a senior, this also includes social security! Tap, tap, tap, is this thing on? I'm here all week folks. {nm} Willroast Dec 09, 07:55

Especially on the Movies board! {nm} billy75 Dec 10, 11:09

It's a movie based on a popular book that's starring LDCAP, costing pennies and it has an attached director. Why do you want to sell it? {nm} elchan2012 Dec 09, 10:18

Year-End Capital Gains Tax Loss? {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Dec 09, 10:31

Lol. Not a good candidate, since there's not enough loss to offset any capital gains, with much better high side potential. {nm} elchan2012 Dec 09, 10:39

when i joined HSX I was just buying and buying. 100K shares was a bargain. Am tired of looking at it. {nm} JPS13 Dec 09, 15:10

Is there a "strategy" to trading funds? twoshenoudas Dec 07, 17:26

Nope, as long as the fund manager is actually making money that's about it. {nm} DTravel Dec 07, 17:53

I treat them like a New Wave Oven - just set it and forget it. {nm} aggie2145 Dec 09, 09:34

If I don't have any cash but I see something else that I'm sure will do well in a short time frame... MattW Dec 10, 13:01

Is there a way to find out what price a movie IPOed at? Willroast Dec 07, 15:34

XMEN5 IPOed at $60 on 12/3/11 {nm} RazorHawk Dec 07, 17:04

im guessing you had this info handy, cuz theres no way to find out through hsx {nm} islander Dec 07, 17:07

Handy? RazorHawk Dec 07, 17:21

The answer to the original question: Yes there is a way, just ask any big port like RH what they bought it at. {nm} elchan2012 Dec 09, 10:11
