Stupid Question - Short vs. Long Niles2828 Jul 05, 14:31

buy long if you think price is going up, buy short if you think the price will go down {nm} lapuckfan Jul 05, 14:49

Okay, let me see if I understand this... Niles2828 Jul 05, 15:06

that's pretty much it - you also pay 1% of each transaction as commission. {nm} Jane_Citizen Jul 05, 16:59

Good luck and happy investing to AndrewGellar and NYNY......usual request...can you let us know when you will start, and finish your 20M mrbinns Jul 05, 11:53

My Bonds moved to New York! {nm} DTravel Jul 05, 13:25

AFRAM Fund Update: Week 20 (7/5/12) AFRAM-The African American Fund Jul 05, 10:56

Qu. for all the billionaires: How long did it take to make your first billion? Wondering if my H$1bn/1yr target is realistic. {nm} Rednax Jul 05, 05:13

Here are the Benchmarks for the ROTO YTD Port. Best Wishes for 1 Billion in One Year. RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jul 05, 05:27

Not a Billionaire, but thought these benchmarks might be of help. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jul 05, 05:28

like Flash i've been playing along time and the game changes so much but if you've the time then you'll do it. good luck {nm} swordfish1 Jul 05, 08:43

When I started playing... Flash Jul 05, 08:25

I heard a rumor once that Grory did it in a year JohnTEQP Jul 08, 21:15

Unless I falter badly, I should reach 1 billion by my 17th month. Some more info inside... slappydavid Jul 05, 10:05

I'm relying on keeping my dROI up to give exponential growth - will be harder as port grows though {nm} Rednax Jul 05, 13:43

took me about 22 months. but my first $100 mill took seven months ... Jane_Citizen Jul 05, 17:02

Have been playing for abt 6 years now. Have just gone past 300 milion. Again I shud have played more often :( {nm} rambirkodi Jul 05, 22:22

Starbonds: How early can i invest on Starbonds, Would it make sense to invest in a starbond that will adjust say 4 months from now. {nm} rambirkodi Jul 04, 18:36

Possibly. DTravel Jul 04, 21:51

Not if it has a % Gain of 25% or less. At 279 MILL, the ROTO YTD Port has 155 StarBonds Positions. Go 4 it. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Jul 04, 21:53

I use Kaigee.com to find those with highest dROI (longest I've gone is 5 weeks). {nm} Rednax Jul 04, 23:48

Invest in short term gains when you are a small port. Once you have tons o moolah, you can hold longer. {nm} PVL Admin Jul 05, 00:25

$2M to $4M in 3 months..hopefully my next double up is faster...nm rtbgamer76 Jul 04, 10:31

keep on doubling!...congrats! {nm} tealfan Jul 04, 11:18

I see the BONDS fund delists on thursday well done and will it be back soon are you having a rest first {nm} blaze223 Jul 04, 01:33

Limit Orders - Protecting From a Price Drop Niles2828 Jul 04, 00:28

Read what the guys from the Ampersand in the fan sites have wriiten it may help {nm} blaze223 Jul 04, 01:25

Wow, that's a great site! Thanks for the help :) {nm} Niles2828 Jul 04, 02:47

I tried the trick to place short limit orders to hedge a long position against drops. Doesn't seem to work. elchan Jul 05, 19:40

$700M milestone......finally. at this summer pace, should be at $1B by nov-dec. {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Jul 02, 21:43

wahoo! {nm} tealfan Jul 02, 21:56

good work there {nm} blaze223 Jul 02, 23:39

Congrats! {nm} PVL Admin Jul 03, 09:10

Congrats.Keep it up {nm} laujer Jul 04, 07:14

Hit 500M finally {nm} The Claw Jul 01, 17:19

yay!...congrats! {nm} tealfan Jul 01, 19:30

Well done there {nm} blaze223 Jul 02, 06:45

Congrats! {nm} PVL Admin Jul 03, 09:10

yowsa...nice momentum! {nm} tealfan Jul 01, 13:59

congrats, keep it up! {nm} Oleg Max Jul 01, 15:29

Yes, I saw. I've been following you. ;-) Good work! {nm} elchan Jul 01, 15:59

How you played before? {nm} elchan Jul 01, 15:59

Oops, "how" = "have" {nm} elchan Jul 01, 16:00

thanks. no ive never played before. i'm late to the game. i only heard of the site a month ago and i joined. bkohn01 Jul 01, 19:19

Even more amazing effort then. Took me a couple of months to learn. ;-) {nm} elchan Jul 01, 19:23

thanks. its interesting there are a lot of features that you learn as you go that makes things so much easier. so each week bkohn01 Jul 01, 19:47

Are you using limit orders every night? {nm} elchan Jul 01, 20:11

no on the limit orders. do you? {nm} bkohn01 Jul 02, 16:56

I've tried them with little success. What I really would like to be able to put in a "stop loss" order. {nm} elchan Jul 02, 18:46

Wouldn't we all. lol... HSX has said stop loss orders could lead to manipulation...so no dice. :-) {nm} Flash Jul 03, 07:29

Well done! Puts my $6mil to shame (& you started after me!). {nm} Rednax Jul 01, 23:56

Been playing off and on for years and I'm at my highest right now :s (8m) good job! {nm} Borb86 Jul 04, 14:37

NEW Port Value League level created for those with a portfolio size of 3.5 - 4.5 Billion Dollars! PVL Admin Jul 01, 12:57

Congratulations to June 2012's Port Value League winners! (results inside) PVL Admin Jul 01, 13:13

There were many graduates from each level this month. Be sure to join the next level ASAP ;) {nm} PVL Admin Jul 01, 13:14

thx for running all these leagues...must be a bit of work {nm} tealfan Jul 01, 13:59

Thanks Rocket! {nm} slappydavid Jul 01, 15:41

UR Welcome! I'm just glad that I came up with an idea that people appreciate and remain involved in. {nm} PVL Admin Jul 01, 23:46

It's not too bad. I have the monthly resets down to a procedure and I check them a couple of times a day for new players. {nm} PVL Admin Jul 01, 23:45

Can we have a 5 to 10 million PVL please? {nm} Rednax Jul 02, 08:48

That's too small of a range to warrant a league. Additionally, 10 mil is considered the rights of passage. PVL Admin Jul 03, 00:25

Understood. I hope to make H$10mil in next month or so. {nm} Rednax Jul 03, 06:27

Top gaining funds for June 2012. Congrats to [AWARD] at #1. islander Jul 01, 08:35

Not too shabby! Hopefully I can delist this fund by Halloween! {nm} HorrorFund Jul 01, 13:00

Congrats Accountant! {nm} OriginalFund Jul 01, 22:55

Thanks JohnTEQP! {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Jul 05, 21:35

Is shorting a put the same as longing a call?-nm rtbgamer76 Jun 30, 22:08

not really: Oleg Max Jul 01, 07:11

Another minor milestone: H$6mil in 7.5 weeks. On track for H$1bn in 1yr :) {nm} Rednax Jun 30, 08:42

Mike & Starbond adjusts should bump me up more :) {nm} Rednax Jun 30, 08:43

keep on keeping on! {nm} tealfan Jun 30, 11:50

Congrats...a good goal is to increase your port 1% a day - 30% in a month....it gets harder the bigger your port gets... {nm} Flash Jun 30, 15:39

I aim for a weekly ROI of 12.7% which will get me to my target (via compound interest). {nm} Rednax Jul 01, 00:21

Fits with the weekly cycle of releases & adjusts. {nm} Rednax Jul 01, 00:22

Agree it gets harder as port gets bigger - but that's part of the challenge! {nm} Rednax Jul 01, 00:26

(fireworks explode ) Congratulations to JohnTEQP and ORGNL for passing 100M {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 Jun 29, 14:06

Thanks Mr. Binns!! OriginalFund Jun 29, 16:54

Congrats JohnTEQP! It's a great feeling isn't it? :) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Jun 29, 17:29

Congrats!! {nm} FOXXFund Jun 29, 17:14

EURO has spent its 20M and is (hopefully) at its lowest price. Good time to invest and good luck to the fund. {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 Jun 29, 13:47

Am I misunderstanding the Spider-Man Opening Weekend Derivatives? CommonAnomaly Jun 29, 00:14

I believe it's just Friday thru Sunday (so 4 days only) {nm} baronblacksheep Jun 29, 01:44

3 days...this has been used for July 4, Christmas and New Years in the past. {nm} BUY StarBondFund Jun 29, 04:29

Could this weekend see three, I say 3, funds reach 100? ORGNL has MGKMK and TED, AWARD has MGKMK and BONDS has, well Bonds. With KP3D in Buy StarBond Fund 18 Jun 27, 13:47

If I had any $H left I would buy some. Oh well. {nm} elchan Jun 27, 19:05

I've also got MADWP. Looking forward to a good weekend. {nm} OriginalFund Jun 27, 19:57

No offense but how is that not a sequel of a sequel of a sequel of a sequel of a play ? {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 Jun 28, 05:28

....all springing full grown from the head of Zeus...er TPERR {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 Jun 28, 05:29

Damn, that is a good question. OriginalFund Jun 30, 00:29
