Stop selling chavez2011 Oct 12, 11:49

Two things 1) the market may agree in time so get over it.2) people may not agree with you and so are shorting blaze223 Oct 12, 12:07

3) this post is definitely against the rules, as it is a blatant call to action {nm} lapuckfan Oct 12, 12:38

Personally....I think he's only posting an opinion, although he should give REASONS 'why' he thinks the movie will do so well.... {nm} Flash Oct 12, 14:53

Yeah, he should be posting stuff like PNAC3 had a $52M opening, fans aren't tired of the franchise yet, etc... {nm} RogerMore Oct 12, 15:06

if he didn't title the post "stop selling" and there was some supporting data, I think its fine too {nm} lapuckfan Oct 12, 15:08

Whats with the WBROX fund ? No trading for a while. Hope the "manager" is well.. {nm} PaulBuxton2011 Oct 12, 10:42

WBROX last traded on 9/29/12 and the manager last traded in their main account on the same day {nm} RazorHawk Oct 12, 14:19

Thats why I ask...Could be on holiday, fund managers are alllowed them of course but to take on a fund 2 weeks before doing so is not PaulBuxton2011 Oct 13, 01:35

joining a league morgansbyers Oct 12, 06:28

It's helps you compare your performance against other similar sized ports, and you can swap tips and discuss ideas with other members RogerMore Oct 12, 06:44

so i have nothing to lose? morgansbyers Oct 12, 06:47

That's right. Start with RazorHawk's league - he's made a lot of money on HSX and put a lot of work into helping new players, so I assume RogerMore Oct 12, 07:47

I didn't really play until I joined a league. Comparing my port to others of the same value really got me into the game, try a PVL. {nm} tatoufan Oct 13, 22:38

I've posted some new columns on HSXsanity. This month, it's about ERC, the $250M limit for starbond TAGs and how to get along on the forums RogerMore Oct 10, 11:37

Great info! Every newbie would benefit from visiting HSXsanity! {nm} slappydavid Oct 10, 13:24

I think you should lift the limt 250 million cap. Let the free market decide. mike255 Oct 10, 13:43

Thank you! Very valuable information. Hsxman Oct 10, 23:47

What do you consider a good dROI? In your blog post you made references but you never gave a range {nm} websch01ar Oct 11, 05:29

50% is quite good ;-), but seriously....... srrichardson Oct 11, 05:49

Awesome thanks! I had evaluated my port and found a 1.1 but did not have a basis to adjust... websch01ar Oct 11, 05:53

^^ what he said. Any droi above 1% is good, but obviously whether you take it depends on how big your port is, what risks you are taking, RogerMore Oct 11, 09:56

I have joined a couple leagues and am refreshing news sources. You can never have too much information. Thx! {nm} websch01ar Oct 11, 10:01

I am content with anything above 3%. {nm} tatoufan Oct 12, 01:31

hopefully something like this catches on. that can reduce the bad posting and bracketeering and so on {nm} islander Oct 11, 06:09

That would require controlling human nature and some of us have realized the futility of THAT. :) {nm} DTravel Oct 11, 10:51

Knowledge is power! {nm} tealfan Oct 11, 18:28

How long will symbol TAKE2.OW be halted? morgansbyers Oct 08, 11:20

The Market Calendar has that answer for you... slappydavid Oct 08, 11:49

So the bad news is that you had to wait about 4 1/2 hours to get the cash....the good news is that you did not have to pay commission. {nm} BUY BONDS 19 Oct 08, 11:52

I love the EURO thread...Do 2 Israeli StarBonds...OFEHR and AZURE....Here is the question... Buy BONDS 19 Oct 05, 11:36

Middle Eastern. {nm} Antibody Oct 05, 11:40

Don't forget Eurocup, but yes they are M.E. {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 13:23

ME is not a continent. Does that mean we can have a ME fund? Btw, ME is not a continent. {nm} BUY BONDS 19 Oct 06, 11:05

Actually, neither is Europe. DTravel Oct 06, 12:47

or Afro-Eurasia in the 4 countinent mode. BUY BONDS 19 Oct 06, 14:04

Can I do an Antarctica fund? That would be fun... slappydavid Oct 06, 14:52

:P I think the Panama and Suez canals have split the continents. {nm} DTravel Oct 06, 21:19

Europe and Asia ARE both continents, according to my grade school teachers, and Wiki. {nm} elchan Oct 08, 09:36

Canada isn;t a continent either. {nm} Antibody Oct 08, 08:37

Unfortunately, Canada is part of North America along with those buggers, south of the border. {nm} elchan Oct 08, 09:41

The Itialians refer to Canada as Upper US. {nm} BUY BONDS 19 Oct 09, 20:59

Kaigee has updated his site - new Top 10,000 lists for the last month. {nm} DTravel Oct 04, 14:20

It is being readjusted now. {nm} EuroFund Oct 04, 13:03

MAKE ME MONEY!!!! :) {nm} DTravel Oct 04, 13:34

Today may be a bit of a bloodbath with the needed sell-off, but I will. Thanks for the confidence! {nm} EuroFund Oct 04, 14:32

We accept Euros too! :) {nm} slappydavid Oct 04, 14:53

minus the conversion charge naturally. {nm} EuroFund Oct 04, 16:08

I don't think PNOCH and IFRNK qualify. {nm} Antibody Oct 04, 18:21

AZURE is from Israel, DHOUN from Benin. {nm} Antibody Oct 04, 18:27

CRAMP is from England (does not qualify) {nm} AFRAM-The African American Fund Oct 04, 19:14

she's been dumped {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 01:20

47RON; DESM2; CNFLT; HORNS; KILTS; SEXHL; SERNA - all do not qualify for the EURO Fund but are being held {nm} AFRAM-The African American Fund Oct 04, 19:53

Reply to DHOUN, 47RON; DESM2; CNFLT; HORNS; KILTS; SEXHL; SERNA and anything Frankenstien. EuroFund Oct 05, 01:00

By the way in addition to starring, Lenny Kravitz is also co-producing SEXHL and... EuroFund Oct 05, 01:17

Concerning DESM2 Main character Gru in the film is european. Hear the accent? That is probably why the previous manager had it in the fund. {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 04:23

Check the fund description again - it invests in starbonds of Europeans, and the moviestocks they are attached to. RogerMore Oct 05, 07:24

Fair enough, I have sold Horns and Serena and will definitely request a starbond for Aja. The rest should be fine, but... EuroFund Oct 05, 07:29

No worries. You might want to take a look at TAKE2 and JB23, which are set in Istanbul, and CLATL, which was filmed in Germany. RogerMore Oct 05, 08:20

TAKE2, JB23 and CLATL are all fairly priced in. Buy low sell high, thats the Euro fund motto ;-) {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 08:30

TAKE2 may be priced in right now, but I would check back again after 5 PST ;) {nm} RogerMore Oct 05, 08:59

good call on TAKE2. I didn't think it would do it {nm} tatoufan Oct 08, 02:04

SERNA does qualify for the fund should I choose to trade it. Director, Susanne Bier is Danish. {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 02:39

DHOUN is French. If every African who moved to France kept their Nationality, there would be No Football team ;-). {nm} tatoufan Oct 05, 00:49

Hounsou became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2007. sold. Still French to me ;-) {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 01:38

DHOUN lived his life as a French citizen for 30 years, he should qualify. {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 03:33

del Toro, Frank tatoufan Oct 05, 00:28

Frankenstein and Pinnocchio do NOT qualify unless they are specifically set or filmed in Europe. IFRNK is sci-fi, PNOCH is fantasy Antibody Oct 05, 09:06

IFRNK, ok but, I don't own either now, and sold both at losses as to not upset the board.I won't trade PNOCH, but... EuroFund Oct 05, 09:46

I am not sure anymore but in the decription of Pinnochio by Tim Burton it says that the film is based on... EuroFund Oct 05, 09:51

It's not the origin of the story, but the setting of the location that matters. {nm} Antibody Oct 05, 10:21

Now can I trade it? According to the Guardian, it takes in Italy. Link Inside. EuroFund Oct 05, 09:57

Ok, that counts. {nm} Antibody Oct 05, 10:15

Thanks, because both Pinocchios are in Italia. {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 13:01

PNOCH is Italian. How does it not quaify? {nm} EuroFund Oct 05, 01:23

Shorting is betting that a stock will drop. You profit if it loses value and lose money if it gains. PVL Admin Oct 03, 21:23

Sorry, that's in response to "ajhanson1 on Oct 03, 17:44" below. {nm} PVL Admin Oct 03, 21:55

I bought a few IPO's this week. Up 2M. Not much but in the top 20k now. Also.. perply1 Oct 02, 20:29

Wow! From over $10M to $6M in the span of 2 hrs? {nm} elchan Oct 02, 21:10

HSX giveth, and HSX taketh away. {nm} BSmurf Oct 02, 21:11

Sounds like he missed the selloff point... {nm} slappydavid Oct 02, 21:43

All that action from what looks like 2 stocks. Talk about volatile. {nm} elchan Oct 03, 08:22

Top gaining funds for September 2012. Congrats to [AARP] at #1 islander Oct 01, 16:19

Question for AARP fund islander Oct 01, 16:21

Both directors are over the age of 50 {nm} AARPfund Oct 01, 16:36

thnx {nm} islander Oct 01, 16:40

Your fund mention .. "StarBonds who have passed their 50th birthday and the MovieStocks in which they star in" .. not directors {nm} karspov Oct 02, 07:09

A Director's security is a StarBond. {nm} DTravel Oct 02, 11:39

And means they need to satisfy both categories.. I didn't say directors are not star bonds .. Directors did not star in movies .. karspov Oct 02, 16:46

Limited Release Formula? What is it? websch01ar Oct 01, 04:56

limited releases that stay limited do not adjust. they cash out after the 12th wk based on box office {nm} islander Oct 01, 05:38

Right, but is there a tried and true prediction formula?** {nm} websch01ar Oct 01, 05:39

No, because release/expansion patterns vary... slappydavid Oct 01, 05:58

Most movies that open in limited release make very little money overall. If you chose, you could keep these short to maximize PVL Admin Oct 01, 06:31

I don't see an advantage in holding them short, long-term. The initial profit is from people pumping up the price before release, and then elchan Oct 01, 07:42

Short answer....with only 4M to work with, stay away. But...if you had more capital, let's use a concrete example. mrbinns Oct 01, 10:08

dynamics of movie funds/ mcphisto Sep 30, 07:28

Movie funds are ran pretty much like any portfolio, with the exception that you have rules as to which securities you can hold... slappydavid Sep 30, 07:46

the basics i pretty much understand what i was looking for was the specifics. mcphisto Sep 30, 07:55

Normal funds start with $20 million dollars (and are priced at $20), studio funds start with $10 million (and are priced at $10). CaineFund Sep 30, 08:26

Trying to answer a few of your questions srrichardson Oct 01, 01:16

ok thanks so here is my thought... mcphisto Oct 01, 19:33

You should check out the funds page at The HSX Dude, which has lots of info about requesting funds, etc RogerMore Oct 01, 21:49

Good luck with that, but I doubt Antibody will go for it srrichardson Oct 02, 06:52

You know what we need? A fund that just plays OWs, calls and puts {nm} RogerMore Oct 02, 13:43

that'd be fun! {nm} perply1 Oct 02, 20:42

Or resurrect the ADJUS fund, but with the added restiction of not trading movie stocks after the Options have halted {nm} srrichardson Oct 04, 03:36

can you be more specific? Generally, funds are managed by one player who is trusted by HSX & the fund manager must trade within the scope LatinoFund Sep 30, 07:47
