HSXsanity has a new column on the weekend before Thanksgiving RogerMore Nov 18, 08:30

thx! {nm} tealfan Nov 18, 12:52

Thanks for a solid read Mr. more! {nm} Willroast Nov 18, 19:15

im thinking i might have made a huge mistake. after being bitten by wolverine, carrie, thor, i didnt buy anywhere near as many shares of HG horrorfanatic Nov 16, 15:19

With a full committment to the OW being $17million being a little conservative might be better especially if you are here for the long term blaze223 Nov 17, 04:05

Hunger Games Sell.. MitchC Nov 16, 12:45

'The Hunger Games' Adjust was 418.50 with a Delist at 336.67. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 16, 13:02

I think Roto's post right here gives a good impression of what may be the way to play this. Also check out RogerMore's column located above {nm} CrockettsMafia Nov 18, 19:27

Think about it. The HGAM2.OW is priced at 175. If correct, that's a potential adjust price of almost 470. Why are you talking sell at all? tatoufan Nov 16, 16:18

Because 175 makes it the 2nd biggest opening ever - 23 mil above the 1st movie. So I don't fault anyone that thinks that's too high to hold. {nm} JDolphin Nov 16, 20:43

Yeah, I had the same thoughts at 430, but I am in for the long haul now (mostly because of the commission). THOR2's % gap up over the first tatoufan Nov 17, 03:17

JDolphin, what is the bigget opening ever? TY {nm} tatoufan Nov 17, 03:17

Avengers ($207.4M). Link inside... slappydavid Nov 17, 05:19

So how do you predict delist price? Do you use ratio after 1st week and forget it, or do you have another ongoing strategy? Here's mine. PVL Admin Nov 16, 09:45

I'm a lazy player ndmaster Nov 16, 12:14

It's not actually difficult to do, esp the 3rd and 4th WEs. I use BOM daily calendar for the other calcs. I't fairly quick once you get PVL Admin Nov 17, 13:06

How do u sell short stock? {nm} Grigori Nov 15, 07:39

A new release category? DTravel Nov 14, 22:08

As i understand it, if it's not wide, it's 12 weeks. {nm} PVL Admin Nov 14, 22:22

Yes, currently. The question is do you think that might change? {nm} DTravel Nov 15, 06:51

No {nm} PVL Admin Nov 16, 21:40

I may be wrong, but I'm guessing moderate is a way of saying it's probably limited, but there's a chance it might be HSX-wide... {nm} slappydavid Nov 15, 03:27

I'm seeing it on stocks with theatre numbers of around 400, so it seems like its known it will be limited. {nm} DTravel Nov 15, 06:53

thats basically true, moderate in most cases is HSX limited {nm} Moviesnob Nov 15, 09:49

Riding the wave on the penny stock that sailed! Lovely {nm} PVL Admin Nov 14, 19:43

Jeepers, I just noticed there is a second one! Aaaaaawesome! {nm} PVL Admin Nov 14, 19:49

Way to go! {nm} jakemongoose Nov 14, 21:07

Uh, I'm holding 200,000 stocks of CATE6 and 200,000 of TFIOS on my portfolio. How's that possible? cmbastos Nov 14, 05:02

Send an email to support@hsx.com or post in the Feedback & Support board and they'll sort it out for you... {nm} slappydavid Nov 14, 05:29

Thanks. {nm} cmbastos Nov 14, 05:36

See if you can buy 200K of other stocks, and IF SO.... shhhhh!!! :-) {nm} Flash Nov 14, 07:54

Why can't I be that lucky! {nm} jakemongoose Nov 14, 21:05

Hunger Games 2 Derivatives brett621 Nov 13, 09:26

Ticker did not work brett621 Nov 13, 09:29

Just as well, probably not something that should be tagged to the securities. {nm} DTravel Nov 13, 09:51

it depends on if the box office gets seperated. for example, thor 2 thursday night totals were reported as part of fridays take, so the deri islander Nov 13, 09:41

Thanks brett621 Nov 13, 09:44

thor had 8pm thurs showings as well, still got included into fridays total {nm} islander Nov 13, 09:48

Movies I saw last night and did not sleep well because of; Man Bites Dog. I'll go B+ on in since it's groundbreaking-ish, but man, no fun. {nm} Willroast Nov 13, 06:54

Shnikes! I meant to post this is Movies. My bad. Still though, Man Bites Dog is some cray-cray stuff. {nm} Willroast Nov 13, 06:56

i loved it, havent seen it in ages tho {nm} islander Nov 13, 09:42

Please someone remind me on how to post a link in these forums. Thanks Gavin. {nm} TheFox Nov 12, 21:43

What in Blazes is going on. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 13, 23:06

Wow! A fellow HSX old timer!! :-) {nm} Flash Nov 13, 08:16

lmao! victory (of sorts) from the jaws of defeat! got myself out of a negative 200k evening to something towards a respectable profit. noo, horrorfanatic Nov 11, 20:50

You should focus starbond. Make your porfolio grow bigger like mine mike255 Nov 12, 09:25

damn!!! for every step forward i take.... note to self, pennystocks are not always your friend {nm} horrorfanatic Nov 11, 16:20

and furthermore thor is DEFINITELY not your friend.... today is NOT my day {nm} horrorfanatic Nov 11, 16:52

But when they are your friend, they're a very, very good friend. {nm} billy75 Nov 12, 09:05

What's going on with HSX? Been gone a few years... fricnfractal Nov 10, 21:12

Welcome back...here's "what's going on..." Flash Nov 11, 08:10

Thanks for the update! fricnfractal Nov 11, 17:41

Hope Hsx need to increase Max stock to 200k {nm} mike255 Nov 11, 08:26

How does that song from Man of LaMancha go?? "To Dream The Impossible Dream...".... {nm} Flash Nov 11, 17:13

Maybe he's following the lyrics - 'this is my quest, to follow that start, no matter how hopeless, no matter how far' {nm} JDolphin Nov 11, 23:08

oops - star not start {nm} JDolphin Nov 11, 23:08

Perhaps you should have changed 'far' instead of 'start'. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 12, 18:20

DTravel, I read the documentation of your spreadsheet and I think some Visual Basic macros could cut down on update times significantly. socby19 Nov 09, 23:56

If that's the case H3 should qucikly go up to $400 & H4 $360 to $380. If H2 flops H3 & H4 will go down. {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 18:41

Also early next year after the memory of Hgam fades H3 & H4 price should start to drift downwards as players free up cash for other stocks. {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 18:47

Define "flops" LRDR2 made the least of the 3; STAR2 made less than STRWR or STAR3; HPOT's went down and up. The last one does best. {nm} Buy BONDS 21 Nov 10, 20:05

That last note was for DarkWalker86. {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 18:29

Intesting enough you only hold 10 stocks. For a port of a respectable 66M, all the HGAM stocks offer a very poor return. I would be looking {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 16:16

at stocks mostly under $50 And to double your port by the end of the year. For best stocks BUY stocks on the movie board with positive news. {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 16:24

Especialy those with ACTORS added, or filming started. They will often shoot up towards & beyond $10 profit whether they are 1c, $20, or {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 16:31

Do you think mocking jay is worth investing in at the current price {nm} Darkwalker86 Nov 09, 10:13

HGAM3 is a year away from release and is priced over $360. There are better places for a port your size to put money. {nm} RogerMore Nov 09, 10:58

there is still good money to be made on THOR2 & 12SLV. Hurry only a few hours left until HALT & margin closing. {nm} TheFox Nov 09, 15:54
