I don't completely understand Opening Weekend Jun 26, 10:24
Look at 2nd post down. It explains them. {nm} Jun 26, 11:00
Each derivate page has the explanation as to how it works... {nm} Jun 26, 12:12
I don't understand either explanation the 2nd post down or the derivative page. Jun 26, 14:30
In your example, the OW would cash out at $77... Jun 26, 17:31
I'm referring to the "Opening Weekend" not the "Call or Put". {nm} Jun 27, 08:21
There are 4 securites affected by the opening weekend of a movie - the regular movie stock, the .OW, the Call and the Put ... Jun 27, 11:35
oops posted too soon - more inside Jun 27, 11:45
I think i understand now. So, the OW is just a bigger risk or reward based on weekend box office? Jun 27, 15:52
Penny stock strike again {nm} Jun 25, 16:17
answer... Jun 25, 14:09
Calls and Puts have always been a way for the smaller investor to "get in on the action" They only cost 20K each to buy Jun 25, 16:06
Uh - got that wrong - 20,000 Shares @ 2.00 = 40,000. for each CALL & PUT. {nm} Jun 25, 17:34
Your explanation made alot of sense, thank you very much. :) {nm} Jun 27, 16:05
To all the billionaires out there.... Jun 25, 12:40

Want To Ask. What is a OW aka Opening Weekend option? {nm} Jun 23, 04:08
Typo..... 89.10= 33 * 2.7 {nm} Jun 23, 06:33
They IPO nine days before the movie releases, not the two implied by "Wednesday prior to the opening of the movie" Jun 23, 10:41
I'm pretty sure it's always a Wednesday(see HNOV3). It's the Wed of the week before the opening week. {nm} Jun 23, 15:01
Yes, always a Wed. Was trying to say "Wed of week before release" rather than "the Wed before release" Jun 24, 09:51
i had to think a bit before I figured out how to say it. And even then I had to look at it twice, three times. :) {nm} Jun 24, 15:00
Cash-out Jun 25, 01:11
An explanation and details about OWs are printed on each OW page. {nm} Jun 23, 06:49
coming in 2014(pending approval from hsx)... Jun 21, 08:03
Good idea, but it will be a slow earner if you only play OW, BW Calls and Puts. {nm} Jun 21, 09:56
well its.. Jun 21, 21:55
About adding real stock in hsx {nm} Jun 22, 06:13
TV stocks, Nominoptions and Oscar derivatives should also be eligible, but there is rarely a lot of investment choices... Jun 22, 19:46
They need to put some reality shows who is going to win. {nm} Jun 22, 21:07
EPIC.BW should be in the money very soon, easy money peeps. {nm} Jun 20, 10:45
Good Tip - currently at 98.528 as of Wednesday - lots left in the tank. {nm} Jun 20, 14:53
After this OW - make that - some left in the tank. {nm} Jun 23, 12:19
Is school out in the U.S.? {nm} Jun 19, 14:57
Los Angeles Unified School District last day was June 7, so I figure most schools in the country are out by now {nm} Jun 19, 15:15
Thanks a lot {nm} Jun 19, 17:54
June 26 is the last day of school for NYC, the largest school district in the country. {nm} Jun 19, 20:22
I've never seen a school out that late - when do they start - mid September? {nm} Jun 20, 12:23
OK, who's the wiseguy with 1,000 shares short? =P Jun 19, 11:49

Great fund idea, good luck!! {nm} Jun 18, 15:39
Thanks. I can't take credit, though. Dmac suggested it for me. It was last delisted (I think) back in 2009 by karspov. {nm} Jun 18, 15:58
Well, I will be making some initial StarBond purchases during my lunch (EST)... Jun 18, 15:56

Yes, I see that Nosy is reporting grossly exaggerated gains, today. I'll look into it, tonight. Jun 14, 14:33
so that one could be explained. but how about on week to date leadearboad, tobias23 w/ 500mill port is up %39 Jun 14, 17:31
up 39%, which would mean like 140 mill gain or so... and the week is not even over! {nm} Jun 14, 17:35
