First time I ve checked my leagues in long time. there was an invitation waiting for me. which i declined, but only because islander Sep 06, 08:42

Hey! There's GREEN in my port today...something's WRONG!! Hmm..better sell some stocks to bring the red back! :-) {nm} Flash Sep 06, 07:57

Green is such a september colour well this year anyway {nm} blaze223 Sep 06, 08:12

My results have been more stable the last few days, and yesterday I made 5M, so hopefully the worst has passed... :) {nm} slappydavid Sep 06, 09:18

watch out Jay Leno, Flash is here all week lol {nm} swordfish1 Sep 07, 10:22

...and comin' at ya, too! :-) {nm} Flash Sep 07, 12:12

Top gaining funds for August 2012. Congrats to [AARP] at #1 islander Sep 04, 17:34

LGFX closed with a strong month thanks to XPND2 and TPOSN (even if the derivs' winnings were lost in the cashout, as I suspect) slappydavid Sep 04, 18:20

UNIVX stalled in mid August. Not much going on unfortunately. {nm} Steved1998 Sep 05, 19:01

Indeed, super congrats to oneman and his management of AARP. MojaveMeg Sep 05, 09:08

Sorry for the AnimationFund, it's been a little bit dry these last months {nm} AnimationFun Sep 06, 01:36

you arent playing 'Toys In The Attic'? {nm} RazorHawk Sep 08, 17:24

no 'Guardians Of The Galaxy'? {nm} RazorHawk Sep 08, 17:29

I see plenty of red in my watchlist rankings -- involving some experienced, steady traders -- how and why is this occurring? DTXbro Sep 04, 10:57

Explanation momentum858 Sep 04, 13:22

That seems less than an explanation. Not all of the likely castoffs have declined in value, nor any readily identifiable subset of them. DTXbro Sep 04, 14:45

What is Delta House ? {nm} karspov Sep 04, 16:42

Home of the greatest achievement in American motion pictures, home of the brotherhood of Delta Tau Chi, DTXbro Sep 04, 18:52

A possible explanation (from someone with a much smaller port than yours) baronblacksheep Sep 05, 14:06

What makes you think Deltas take this game seriously? Everybody knows that the only things a brother of Delta Tau Chi takes seriously are DTXbro Sep 05, 20:59

Q: Does the net gain/loss column factor in commission fees? {nm} JustaGuy Sep 03, 07:01

No. You need to get at least 2% to break a profit... {nm} slappydavid Sep 03, 07:07

Except in the case of Delist (no Commission) wherein one needs just over 1% in order to make a Profit. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Sep 03, 13:53

100 mil vtwebb Sep 02, 09:45

good work there,the race does not always go to the sprinter {nm} blaze223 Sep 02, 10:57

as long as it's fun...congrats! {nm} tealfan Sep 02, 11:17

congrats! Hope you will soon be a Billionaire.Goodluck. {nm} Hsxman Sep 02, 11:25

grats! {nm} whitewalls Sep 02, 11:46

Thanks all!...56% this year...Hunger Games and Ted have been a pretty big + {nm} vtwebb Sep 02, 22:52

Congratulations! {nm} RogerMore Sep 03, 07:53

Congratulations to July and August (summer competition) Port Value League winners! (results inside) PVL Admin Sep 01, 14:09

Graduates of all leagues have been removed. Be sure to join the next level. Contest starts today! New players welcome. {nm} PVL Admin Sep 01, 14:10

New PVL "sub-contests" for 2013 - details inside PVL Admin Sep 01, 14:17

That sounds great! It fits nicely with my consistant play... :) {nm} slappydavid Sep 01, 14:25

Me likes! Thanks for all the hard work Rocket! Sideshow13 Sep 03, 03:57

Woohoo! {nm} whitewalls Sep 01, 16:06

And I was so close to #1 in both 95-200 and 195-400 - lost it on the last few days :( {nm} baronblacksheep Sep 03, 13:03

Very happy with my #2. Trying for 1st this month (though I'm struggling to maintain my dROI target) {nm} Rednax Sep 06, 11:43

Yikes, I'm back trading again! Would have been nice to be #1 in $50M and $100M leagues, but congrats to Tatoufan for edging me out. ;-) {nm} elchan Sep 07, 06:45

I know that the studio funds delist in September, but is there a set date? whitewalls Aug 31, 22:12

This coming tuesday (listed in the calendar) {nm} slappydavid Aug 31, 22:38

>.< I'm going to blame this on being distracted by the huge crowds seeing ooigloves! {nm} whitewalls Sep 01, 00:14

Haha, no worries, I probably wouldn't have noticed myself if I wasn't a fund manager! :) {nm} slappydavid Sep 01, 09:02

what the hell is going on with this game? down another 1.5 mill. riding the storm isnt working {nm} swordfish1 Aug 31, 15:17

They are more active playing in Hsx. again. People are playing profit!! mike255 Aug 31, 15:35

what he said^ :) {nm} Oleg Max Aug 31, 15:54

Oleg Max. Huh {nm} mike255 Aug 31, 15:56

Just ride the train. Just ride the train.... {nm} JustaGuy Aug 31, 16:33

No, daytrading is not the only way to make money. ndmaster Aug 31, 23:26

1.5M is like .007% of your port! islander Sep 01, 06:48

The word you are looking for is "Volitale Market" I believe. {nm} DTravel Sep 01, 10:49

Ogglelove? Jason07 Aug 31, 08:12

congratulations... pls don't post how you are holding/trading a stock. it is frowned upon. {nm} Oleg Max Aug 31, 09:06

Some Crazy Stock Keep Going up With No News. Flavor Stock of the day, mike255 Aug 31, 06:19

Just ride the train... {nm} JustaGuy Aug 31, 07:51

just to let administration know, the whipser numbers page has the possession as "THE POSSESSIOH" {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Aug 30, 16:29

Oh wait, Sorry, it's on the prediction corner page. {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Aug 30, 16:36

Hmmm - is there a fund of Video Game Movies? {nm} JustaGuy Aug 30, 06:51

there usedt to be one.... RazorHawk Aug 30, 07:55

Is there a list of films with the most Shares Held Long/Short? mjrisgod Aug 29, 13:44

The most widely held moviestocks are listed here RogerMore Aug 29, 13:52

Tell why you want it, and I can easily generate the list for you. ;-) {nm} elchan Aug 29, 15:36

he probably wants to follow the crowd, why else? {nm} Oleg Max Aug 29, 15:56

Obviously never played the game call, 'Lemmings'. If he wants to do that, he should try HSXMetrics. elchan Aug 29, 16:21

Finally hit the 99th percentile... {nm} Chefbobcat Aug 29, 02:06

Well done! Just made it there myself a few weeks ago! {nm} slappydavid Aug 29, 06:10

thats great! {nm} islander Aug 29, 08:55

Whoo Hoo! {nm} elchan Aug 29, 09:14

Well Done! Way To Go. {nm} Hsxman Aug 29, 10:56

good work there {nm} blaze223 Aug 29, 11:50

Congratulations! That's my next goal too, and it's not easy! (nm) dtshakes Sep 02, 22:08

To the worriers: Patience...I remember when I lost 10-15% of my port's value, when HSX had a "black Friday" day several years ago... Flash Aug 28, 16:11

Very sage advice, Flash. Fortunately, I'm one of those blasted day traders. Of course, in RL, I would never take that kind of risk. {nm} elchan Aug 28, 16:21

And, since it's really a futures market rather than a genuine stock market, there {nm} jjmarino Aug 28, 22:07

there's always an underlying value that you can expect to recoup. {nm} jjmarino Aug 28, 22:08

Flash, I was there for that one. this current one feels different tho. ive just had no time to breath and gain a foothold {nm} swordfish1 Aug 29, 06:42

I'm losing $ like you, and many others..this seems to be a bit more 'consistent' with losses, rather than sudden...but Flash Aug 29, 07:07

Maybe it's because there are more active players now than then, so the selloffs are bigger. I blame small ports for playing big IPOs... {nm} slappydavid Aug 29, 08:38

+1 They're only hurting themselves by not recognizing the actual cost of commissions on those big IPOs {nm} BSmurf Aug 29, 08:40

Hmm, bought at $180 sold at $197, made $1.7M, commission cost=$180K+197K, net $1.32M. Seems pretty clear to me. ;-) {nm} elchan Aug 29, 09:20

Remember to add the commission if you sold stuff to buy the IPO. Then, how many days did you hold it? 3 days? That gets you 350K/day? slappydavid Aug 29, 10:34

I forgot something else... slappydavid Aug 29, 10:43

Sloppy it only games and it is not serious and have fun {nm} mike255 Aug 29, 15:32

Fuck off! Please stop calling me sloppy, and stop saying the same thing over and over and over... slappydavid Aug 29, 15:42

Ha! The bad word went through... Apologies to everyone else... :) {nm} slappydavid Aug 29, 15:53

Fuck me! Did this one get through too? ;-) {nm} elchan Aug 29, 16:07

Man, we're going to get banned. {nm} elchan Aug 29, 16:08

But, it's the swings that make the game interesting. ;-) elchan Aug 29, 11:04

No one likes red days anyway... I'll only allow myself to have at most 1 per month! :P {nm} slappydavid Aug 29, 11:34

Sloppy it is only games and have fun. I care less if I lost million per day mike255 Aug 29, 15:33

What a troll... {nm} slappydavid Aug 29, 15:45

you are troll {nm} mike255 Aug 29, 18:51

yeah sloppy, he could care less about money.....that's why he's advocating more free money on the feedback board alfpaulytd2012 Aug 29, 15:46

What stocks did people loose the most H$ on, during the bloodbath? elchan Aug 27, 21:49

most smaller ports had to dump their huge stocks to free up money for the recent big IPO... AFRAM-The African American Fund Aug 27, 22:16

Some huge ports, like A4J, Tanker and eallensbp still haven't rebounded. But,if HGAM4 get to the level I think, should be ok. elchan Aug 27, 22:26

Woops, spoke too soon. {nm} elchan Aug 28, 06:27

wow, 2 mill lost. im certainly on a losing streak here lol {nm} swordfish1 Aug 28, 08:40

The players are being played. ;-) {nm} elchan Aug 28, 10:58

Maybe its time to start playing the players who are playing the players. DTravel Aug 29, 16:24

How do players deal with an IPO bloodbath day, like today? jjmarino Aug 25, 19:00

I play "long strategy" so I just ride it out. "This too, shall pass." {nm} DTravel Aug 25, 19:13

Just curious, where does the new money come from to make up for all these loses? nanomurf Aug 25, 21:51

HSX is a pretty inflationary economy. Adjusts add big money. As does every new port. {nm} jjmarino Aug 25, 21:57

DMac has the secret H$ printing press running 24/7 :D DTravel Aug 26, 10:34

Plus, it's not really that much money, compared to overall port size. I'd hope active traders would have lost less than 1% of their port {nm} Roger More Aug 26, 13:43

it just drains me pretty much and I loose interest. ive lost so much over the month seriously thinking about quitting now {nm} swordfish1 Aug 26, 15:13

Repeat after me: "It's ONLY play money...it's ONLY play money!" THAT should help! :-) {nm} Flash Aug 27, 08:03

it just drains me pretty much and I loose interest. ive lost so much over the month seriously thinking about quitting now {nm} swordfish1 Aug 26, 15:13

it just drains me pretty much and I loose interest. ive lost so much over the month seriously thinking about quitting now {nm} swordfish1 Aug 26, 15:14

swordfish u need take vacation from hsx {nm} mike255 Aug 27, 06:03

it just drains me pretty much and I loose interest. ive lost so much over the month seriously thinking about quitting now {nm} swordfish1 Aug 26, 15:14

'Lose', perhaps. Please advise when you want the ROTO to take over the Port. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Aug 26, 17:39

its a god damn bloodbath yet again. so fed up with this game now {nm} swordfish1 Aug 25, 14:14

Me too... nothing been right!! {nm} Shackks Aug 26, 02:31

its like ive totally lost the plot. everything at minute is bad juju lol. {nm} swordfish1 Aug 26, 10:32

Are you using a good spreadsheet to track stuff? I can imagine loosing track with investing in so many securities. {nm} elchan Aug 26, 18:31

Are you Ready Stock Sell out Tomorrow due Hunger Game 3 Part 2 Ipo price {nm} mike255 Aug 24, 16:01

already bought the tampax! haha {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Aug 24, 16:43

I've done all the trading I was gonna do, now going to the beach for the rest of the weekend. I'll trade the red in my port for the blue slappydavid Aug 25, 10:38

you actually mean you will be trading the red in your port for the red of your skin (beach for the rest of the weekend?) {nm} RazorHawk Aug 25, 11:22

That sounds awesome {nm} PRodNano Aug 25, 14:04
