Clarification needed. up_up_and_away Sep 19, 12:15

If you use a program to do your TRADING, it is considered manipulation alfpaulytd2012 Sep 19, 12:46

I am sure echlan is going to be very unhappy to discover that they just confessed. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 13:12

He'll probably just get a warning, but its a slippery slope alfpaulytd2012 Sep 19, 13:40

No biggie. Just a little mod to the spreadsheet to create the links and wait for me to click on each. elchan Sep 19, 15:30

Bulk trading is unauthorized computer-assisted trading and considered manipulation. One click for one trade only. {nm} Antibody Sep 19, 13:47

Well, like I was saying, I was only buying 1 share of each stock for radar purposes, and in no way was trying to manipulate the prices. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 15:39

So 1.5 months to double initial investment . . . what am I doing wrong? websch01ar Sep 19, 05:15

My advice is to not think long term just yet (or anytime soon). Focus on secure short term gains. slappydavid Sep 19, 06:20

A good goal is to gain about 1% a day...but everyone has different playing, trading styles, time to play, etc... Flash Sep 19, 08:04

Trade on daily news. That's when my port started to take off. Trading on movies is always hit and miss, unless you are good at guessing OW {nm} elchan Sep 19, 08:29

Step 1: Join The Trading League Of Ill Repute (tons of helpful hints). Step 2: See inside. RotoHockeyYTD2012 Sep 19, 16:16

Step 3: PROFIT! {nm} DTravel Sep 19, 21:38

Read this for some "small port" guidance... PVL Admin Sep 19, 22:32

Ok, now it's my turn to have problems with the site. Keep getting timeouts. elchan Sep 18, 12:47

check the feedback page. someone is overloading the site with multiple connections. {nm} ndmaster Sep 18, 12:48

Thanks, should have checked there first. Seems to be better now. {nm} elchan Sep 18, 18:46

Apparently asking an innocent question about APIs makes ppl question your motives...go figure* {nm} websch01ar Sep 19, 05:53

Look, if you do not follow the rules, it is NECESSARY to put you in the corner to think about what you have done. {nm} Buy BONDS 19 Sep 19, 05:41

Excuse me, are you saying I'm being targeted because I broke some rule? {nm} elchan Sep 19, 08:32

Nobody sent me a notification of anything. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 08:34

I've posted a couple of new articles on HSXsanity - one on droi, and another on why the "no call-to-action" rules exist. RogerMore Sep 17, 14:31

thx...it's good to have these articles out there I think {nm} tealfan Sep 17, 17:12

Thanks roger.This article cleared my confusion regarding droi. {nm} Hsxman Sep 18, 01:18

Hello everyone,Is there a movie fund for independent movies? {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 13:37

not currently, but there used to be INDIE LatinoFund Sep 17, 14:21

Thank you nice information. {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 14:25

Uhm, is the market in hibernation today? Not much movement either way... {nm} JustaGuy Sep 17, 12:33

Yes,I Think So.May be most of the money moved into new Ipo. {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 13:27

Yes,I Think So.May be most of the money moved into new Ipo. {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 13:28

Yes,I Think So.May be most of the money moved into new Ipo. {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 13:28

Sorry,for posting thrice. {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 13:29

Does HSX support Web Services/API? websch01ar Sep 17, 07:27

It supports HTML. ;-) {nm} elchan Sep 17, 11:32

Yeah I guess parsing the HTML would work....nm websch01ar Sep 17, 12:19

So, there isn't an XML driven system in place? {nm} the_wonder_slasher Oct 03, 12:33

Did most people... Jason07 Sep 17, 07:07

HA i was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay long {nm} blaze223 Sep 17, 07:08

** This post has been removed by the forum moderator! ** JustaGuy Sep 17, 07:41

It might go wide (600-800 theatres) this weekend, so it would adjust to [Previous B.O. + (3.0*Box Office Friday-Sunday)] slappydavid Sep 17, 07:53

True, but this was a textbook example of "ride the train" .... got off too late.... {nm} JustaGuy Sep 17, 07:55

Why would anyone short such an expense stock like NEMO2, blindly? Movement is slow enough that you can see which direction to take. elchan Sep 17, 08:31

He's taking about the weekend openers, which was Nemio 3D. {nm} Antibody Sep 17, 09:57

Ah, yes he did say Nemo and Evil. ;-) My bad. {nm} elchan Sep 17, 10:30

But he repeated himself as we all know how evil Nemo really is. :P {nm} DTravel Sep 17, 11:45

I went short on nemo 3D. {nm} Hsxman Sep 17, 13:33

Check the glossary (linked at the bottom of the page and in this post) under "Trailing Average Gross" RogerMore Sep 16, 14:18

Sweet! Thank you kindly! {nm} JustaGuy Sep 16, 16:26

Help me understand....how can calculate how much a starbond will adjust after a movie cashes out? Thanks! {nm} JustaGuy Sep 16, 13:50

see my post above (I posted it in the wrong place - d'oh!) RogerMore Sep 16, 14:19

For all of the chiselers, the Sony Fund (SONYX) is invested and if you hurry you can save that 12 cents you've been waiting for. DTXbro Sep 14, 19:17

why is SONYX holding shares of Finding Nemo OW stock (a Disney movie)? {nm} RazorHawk Sep 14, 20:24

Three reasons DTXbro Sep 14, 20:45

Ha! I wondered who wanted to take control of this fund. No way was I giving it up, after I came up with my 2012-2013 strategy. {nm} UNIVXFund Sep 14, 20:55

Lucky for you, Deltas don't get mad; we get . . . . ah, never mind. {nm} DTXbro Sep 14, 22:00

The race is on. Good luck fund managers! {nm} UNIVXFund Sep 14, 16:41

The ducks seem to be nibbling away my morning profits. {nm} DTravel Sep 14, 15:31

ok I shorted funds. When i try to sell them i can't because I don't own any. Please explain in detail shorting funds....thank you {nm} geek1 Sep 13, 13:46

If you're shorting the fund, you think it will go down in price. To get your money back, you need to cover. Buy = short, sell = cover. {nm} stevie1der328 Sep 13, 13:50

thank you :-) {nm} geek1 Sep 13, 13:56

I guess you've realized that most funds are gainers, most of the time. Short a selected fund only in unusual situations. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 13, 14:29

People who run funds already have a track record of steady gains. Shorting a fund is not a good idea. {nm} elchan Sep 13, 14:42

but sometimes their owners neglect them, like EURO, which hasn't made a trade since Aug 23 {nm} lapuckfan Sep 13, 15:00

EURO fund would probably not be a good one to short. Last cycle, he went to $100 in about 5 months. That's pretty good. {nm} elchan Sep 13, 15:37

Different fund manager now. {nm} Antibody Sep 13, 16:08

Hmm, interesting. {nm} elchan Sep 13, 16:27

Euro Fund has been active for 2.5 months this cycle and net change to date is -H$1.06. Not a good investment in either direction {nm} lapuckfan Sep 14, 11:49

The criteria is make $100mill and sign up.....how does that equal "track record of steady gains"? {nm} alfpaulytd2012 Sep 13, 15:03

In my case, the criteria were make H$3.5 billion and be invited to pitch in for the good of the community. Your mileage may vary. {nm} DTXbro Sep 14, 20:01

Oops, didn't really answer your question. If you shorted any security, and want to get out of the position, you need to "cover". {nm} elchan Sep 13, 15:35

Thank you.... that helps a lot :-) {nm} geek1 Sep 15, 20:58

Out of interest which would be the best studio funds to invest long term in ? {nm} blaze223 Sep 13, 12:17

each fund delists in sept. you can look and see how high each fund got before it delisted. The higher the better. {nm} HSXMetrics.com Sep 13, 12:25

Today is a great day to get started in a fund if you have some excess cash lying around. It is a slow ROI usually, but a ROI nonetheless. {nm} tatoufan Sep 13, 13:08

tho its not just about the studio; the manager is very important. i only recognize a couple of the managers islander Sep 13, 13:11

Disney fund manager bstallard Sep 14, 07:47

Note to all fund managers.....post on the Strategy board when the spending spree is over. Bought DISNX at 9.91 (saves the equv of commiss) {nm} Buy BONDS 19 Sep 14, 08:32

;) bstallard Sep 14, 11:37

Saving at dime isn't worth the time it took to consider the issue. A trader would be better off studying a couple of securities in that time DTXbro Sep 14, 20:07

congratulations on saving $1,800 {nm} RazorHawk Sep 14, 20:36

The best one to invest in is UNIVXFund, of course {nm} UNIVXFund Sep 14, 16:44

Morning Trading JustaGuy Sep 13, 06:15

not always. Oleg Max Sep 13, 06:58

If the trades you made are correct, then when the west coast wake up, they should be reinforced, rather than crash. {nm} elchan Sep 13, 08:40

Well if you're gong to be logical about it.... LOL {nm} JustaGuy Sep 13, 08:43

Please explain how shorting a stock works...Thanks {nm} geek1 Sep 13, 06:00

you short a stock if you think its current price is too high. if you hold a stock short, you make money as the price drops islander Sep 13, 06:54

Did anyone notice what the highest current price fund is? Nice going RH. {nm} BUY BONDS 19 Sep 12, 12:17

Thank You... RazorHawk Sep 12, 16:06

I'm always glad to see great players making us a few H$... :) {nm} slappydavid Sep 12, 16:15

it's getting very samey every day now. Red, red, red. boredom setting in. {nm} swordfish1 Sep 12, 09:20

Change your portfolio composition/strategy momentum858 Sep 12, 09:45

We're moving into the fall 'slow' times... not many big blockbuster movies coming out... Flash Sep 12, 10:42

There's a joke in there about you wearing red so this should be your natural environment. :P (No offense I hope.) {nm} DTravel Sep 12, 15:24

lol none taken got my red speedos on {nm} swordfish1 Sep 12, 17:05

HSX Math: Same trader + same strategy = same complaint.... Same trader + new strategy = $$$ {nm} RazorHawk Sep 12, 10:52

Get up at 12AM PST/3AM PST and RESET TRADE for BIG COIN momentum858 Sep 12, 11:03

Reset traders suck... :) {nm} slappydavid Sep 12, 12:50

Reset your portfolio. :) {nm} Antibody Sep 12, 11:54

What is the largest portfolio ever reset to H$2 million? Can you recall? {nm} DTXbro Sep 12, 12:41

Maybe both Swordfish and Upupandaway should both reset {nm} blaze223 Sep 12, 12:45

I practically flatlined through the summer sulked a bit changed strategy slightly and now moving again {nm} blaze223 Sep 12, 12:22

Anyone else having trouble with the hsx site this week? {nm} Mockmasher Sep 06, 21:51

What trouble? Working fine my side. Sideshow13 Sep 07, 01:59

What apart from it freezing for 20-30 seconds each time i go to a new page? no {nm} blaze223 Sep 07, 11:43

Hi,I Dont Find Any Trouble. {nm} Hsxman Sep 07, 12:41

What's the occasion? Some kind of anniversary? {nm} elchan Sep 07, 17:31

Hmm, posted this in the wrong thread. :-( {nm} elchan Sep 08, 07:25

The site has been having trouble responding. I think it might have something to so with explorer. {nm} Mockmasher Sep 07, 17:55
