thanks for the link {nm} KaiGee May 31, 10:24

it's well deserved. cheers. {nm} jwammo May 31, 10:35

Where do shared come from on HSX after IPO? tribality May 29, 21:17

thin air... RazorHawk May 29, 21:30

yeah, but what's interesting is this: ndmaster May 29, 22:47

Huh? In real markets, you can't create unlimited shares, and issuing new stock or mass selling certainly does affect prices {nm} forlorne May 30, 08:30

unlimited creation and redemption is exactly how ETFs and open-ended mutual funds operate ndmaster May 30, 09:34

ndmaster, you would only be correct about ETF's. Oleg Max May 30, 12:31

shares are created by open ended mutual funds any time anyone buys shares in said fund ndmaster May 30, 12:41

this real life stock talk is like a foreign language to me.... does any of it apply to the game? {nm} RazorHawk May 30, 17:24

Game? You mean I am not worth almost as much as Zuckerberg? {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 May 30, 18:04

if the HSX money was real, I would probably take the game more seriously and apply myself more. {nm} RazorHawk May 30, 19:18

just "probably"?? {nm} islander May 30, 19:24

I just drew a circle chart... I spend 2.5% of my HSX-related alloted time running my RH port {nm} RazorHawk May 31, 07:04

not really alfpaulytd2012 May 30, 13:14

no problem...you can actually find it under the FAQ link down yonder on this page :) {nm} tealfan May 29, 15:06

I can't remember the answer and I can't find it after searching: Delist subject to commission or no? {nm} Dave3626 May 29, 11:53

nope {nm} tealfan May 29, 11:59

Cool. Thanks.. {nm} Dave3626 May 29, 12:14

no problem...you can actually find it under the FAQ link down yonder on this page :) {nm} tealfan May 29, 15:07

What's sad is that I looked there before I posted the question (I see it now) {nm} Dave3626 May 30, 04:57

What is the best way to keep up to date on plans for expansion with regards to limited releases? Thanks in advance. {nm} stevie1der328 May 29, 07:26

I'll just come out and say it. As the Fox Fund owner, Im interested in keeping track of Beasts of the Southern Wild and how FoxSL treats it {nm} stevie1der328 May 29, 07:32

keep checking the official movie site if there is one, if not check BOM (boxofficemojo) for theater counts. Oleg Max May 29, 08:12

Thanks! {nm} stevie1der328 May 29, 10:25

hsxmetrics.com is back up! jwammo May 29, 07:01

So, anyone know what php search will help me find what funds a particular movie is in {nm} elchan May 28, 17:31

Dang, this half-percent is slow and hard! DTravel May 26, 19:50

I hear you, and it only gets tougher. I've been slowly moving though 98% for a while now, just got into the top 2500... {nm} slappydavid May 27, 04:53

I want peoples advice on Bad Boys 3. RobertRIght May 25, 18:51

There are lots of ways to invest... Buy and hold (what you are talking about) is a tough way to go when you start, because you are locking dioneta May 25, 19:39

Be sure to read all the news. Good news moves stocks up and bad news moves stocks down. Flip when required. {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 00:19

...and no news tends to bleed stocks slowly. {nm} PVL Admin May 26, 00:20

Just like real stock market, the longer you hold a stock, the higher the risk. You should expect higher return. elchan May 26, 18:21

And even more savvy folk Short it on the way back down :) {nm} sberg23 May 27, 08:26

A question about movies with no reported b.o. taranev May 25, 16:25

Last year there were about 4 that reported late. This year, we have had 2 so far....but once you get about 5 weeks in,....Fugggetttabout it {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 May 25, 21:24

OK thanks. {nm} taranev May 26, 01:39

There were a few movies with Zero B.O. but reported elsewhere (BOM, etc.). Affects Stock Price but not StarBonds. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 May 26, 21:17

How do the starbonds work? I can't seem to find an explanation of the calcs on the website. thanks {nm} GMov May 25, 09:00

Link inside Dave3626 May 25, 09:16

thanks {nm} GMov May 25, 09:25

You've done pretty decently for not knowing how Starbonds work. Just remember, knowing is half the battle! {nm} Paul2k May 25, 09:27

Also, now you're playing with power! {nm} Paul2k May 25, 09:27

And, Turtles in a half shell- Turtle power! {nm} Paul2k May 25, 09:28

I fink my brain is broked. {nm} Paul2k May 25, 09:28

Avengers Assemble! {nm} RazorHawk May 25, 09:44

Thundercats are go! {nm} lapuckfan May 25, 09:50

It's Clobberin' Time! {nm} RazorHawk May 25, 10:03

thunderbirds were go....thundercats are on the move, thundercats are loose {nm} alfpaulytd2012 May 25, 11:10

I bent my Wookie {nm} BSmurf May 25, 11:40

It tastes like burning! {nm} dioneta May 25, 12:37

Yo Joe! {nm} RazorHawk May 25, 12:15

Its turtles all the way down. {nm} DTravel May 26, 19:46

scroll down to help, click on glossary, scroll down to trailing average gross {nm} alfpaulytd2012 May 25, 09:18

Introducing the brand new hsxmetrics.com!! jwammo May 24, 13:05

Nice work :-) Very nice. {nm} Dave3626 May 24, 13:41

hey thanks! {nm} jwammo May 24, 13:45

Interesting. Are you getting a feed from HSX for the prices, or grabbing it yourself? Also, a note about your tip: Paul2k May 24, 14:06

shhh, its super-secret. To be honest, I wrote the tips section up real quick so I had enough for the ads. jwammo May 24, 15:04

shhh, its super-secret. To be honest, I wrote the tips section up real quick so I had enough for the ads. jwammo May 24, 15:04

not sure how it works here, IRL, the bid and ask differences get larger with the stock price, so price erosion is a factor. {nm} jwammo May 24, 16:08

Here, the amount that a stock goes up (or down) does scale with price, but the price tiers at which the scaling occurs is unknown by me. Paul2k May 24, 16:40

interesting. Shorting here is also different than IRL, which is why it makes sense to cover/re-short {nm} jwammo May 24, 16:45

If anyone is interested in writing a tip or two for the tips page, I would gladly put it up : ) {nm} jwammo May 24, 15:05

Times when (%change)/(time) is the maximum are 1) at reset, 2) at time of news posting, and 3) the day(s) before/after adjust {nm} PRodNano May 24, 16:23

Cool site, btw {nm} PRodNano May 24, 16:24

Hey thanks, I've written down your tip. When I get a page full, I'll update the site, and include your handle. {nm} jwammo May 24, 16:26

thx!...small typo...on the Favorites page, you used the Flash ticker symbol for Highlander (but the link is correct) :) {nm} tealfan May 24, 22:38

fixed, thanks! {nm} jwammo May 25, 05:32

A possible "suggestion" for you. Perhaps make your colums 'sortable'...like HSX..so Flash May 25, 08:34

yeah, its on the list. {nm} jwammo May 25, 09:13

updating went down for a bit. Its back up, but will need some time before hour changes show up. {nm} jwammo May 25, 09:24

I am only seening tings on Home, Tips and Favorites...no stocks. {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 May 25, 11:26

what browser are you using? currently it doesn't work with IE 8 or lower, just IE 9, Chrome, FF, etc. {nm} jwammo May 25, 11:27

fixed for IE 8, try it now! {nm} jwammo May 25, 11:46

Any chance of you doing the same for Starbonds please? Rednax Jun 14, 07:04

The African American Fund [AFRAM] Update: Week 13 (5/24/12) - The HSX Dude RazorHawk May 24, 07:48

Not clear on how StarBonds work. Take CTHER for instance... elchan May 24, 05:44

If her current tag is $27 and her new projected tag is $50 then she adjusts her new tag at +$23. {nm} laujer May 24, 05:59

But bear in mind that a movie is only included in the adjust after 4 weekends (12 weekends for limited) SCIFund May 24, 06:39

So that mean CTHER will be worth $50 after the TAG adjust, if SWTHM makes $150M after 4 weeks? {nm} elchan May 24, 07:04

A bit less - SWHTM would have to make around 200 to adjust to around 50 {nm} SCIFund May 24, 07:12

For CTHER, moviestock count in TAG is 5. SWHTM replaces SEATL, and PROME replaces BRNPL ... fred_ott May 24, 07:10

Ok, I think I get it now. A moving average with a minimum window of 3 films, and a maximum of 5. A little complicated, but now I get it. {nm} elchan May 24, 07:37

It's a little hard to keep track though. Is there an archive of 4 week grosses somewhere? {nm} elchan May 24, 07:39

Kaigee's site (amongst others which are very useful; hsxdude's is another) IMHO is great to track this info ... fred_ott May 24, 07:48

Links? {nm} elchan May 24, 07:49

HSX Fan Sites Link inside message ... fred_ott May 24, 07:54

No, you don't 100% get it alfpaulytd2012 May 24, 08:18

So that means if SWTHM and PROME does well, it could be pretty lucrative for the CTHER starbond. {nm} elchan May 24, 10:40

Profitable yeah, but shouldn't be your only consideration alfpaulytd2012 May 24, 10:56

...what he said....TAGS are actually updated every week that a movie is in release. So if FARRE were to be BUY StarBondFund May 24, 10:55

How is a Movie Stock treated if it first started limited, and then goes wide after? Does the weeks reset? {nm} elchan May 22, 15:32

In a fashion. If a limited movie goes wide, it will adjust according to the formula on the calendar on its wide weekend, and then delist 3 Paul2k May 22, 15:47

Yes - if a limited release expands to wide, it will delist after 4 weekends of wide release. {nm} RogerMore May 22, 15:47

So are the previous week's gross added to the total gross? {nm} elchan May 22, 16:46

Check out the calendar, and then report what you find. In other words, here's a fishing rod, my friend. Let's see what you can do with it. {nm} Paul2k May 22, 17:00

We're not allowed to talk about specific stock movement, but I think everyone know which one I'm eyeing. {nm} elchan May 22, 17:11

Not only does the delist date change, but the release date becomes the date of wide release, now and forevermore. So... Buy StarBond Fund 18 May 23, 05:16

Yeah, I heard that TBEMH is a good movie. I liked the trailer. {nm} elchan May 23, 12:29

you "heard" from who? {nm} RazorHawk May 23, 19:12

A friend of a friend of a friend. {nm} elchan May 23, 19:45

Read the book {nm} blaze223 May 24, 01:18

Is anyone having problems buing MIB3 long?[nm] rtbgamer76 May 21, 08:20

please check the SUPPORT board to see if any other traders are reporting problems {nm} RazorHawk May 21, 08:45

Hee, just noticed I have 599 securities held. Thinking I should find a penny stock to buy just to round it to 600. :) {nm} DTravel May 20, 08:42

Okay, once again, when something opens a couple days early, you take F-Su * 2.7 +W and Th to get adjust price? {nm} Ryan_Stewart May 19, 15:19

adjusts are spelled out each week on the calendar (listed under the day the adjusts occurs) {nm} RazorHawk May 19, 16:32

hmmm...my math says people got a little too bullish today {nm} Ryan_Stewart May 19, 16:48

Generally yes w/1 exception alfpaulytd2012 May 19, 16:51

Pmetric and Pgame updates PRodQuanta May 17, 15:49

No worries, we'll be waiting for you! {nm} slappydavid May 17, 17:37

We care! But we also understand, PRodNano. {nm} PVL Admin May 17, 20:18

Maybe just my handle, for now. {nm} PRodNano May 17, 22:21

Thanks for the update. Hope you find time for fun. {nm} Ryan_Stewart May 19, 22:16

The target for The Avengers $520M Blockbuster Warrant is ridiculously high! {nm} dcfilm001 May 15, 18:35

Actually it's ridiculously low IMO... remember BW cashes out after 12 weeks of release... {nm} slappydavid May 15, 18:41

It might be twelve weeks but spider man and batman hit toward the end of the run taking money away {nm} blaze223 May 16, 06:30

Agreed, but I've read some conservative expectations placing it at around 500M for 4 weeks, seems like a piece of cake from there on... {nm} slappydavid May 16, 07:02

Shh...let them think it's high so that they short it! {nm} Paul2k May 16, 07:45

I estimate it will hit the target on or shortly after the fifth weekend-that leaves 6-7 weeks for gravy. {nm} forlorne May 17, 09:53

.....................And someone shorts the BW oh i love naive optimism {nm} blaze223 May 17, 11:49

Oh, please. HGAME.BW will delist roughly within 5% of adjust JohnTEQP May 20, 15:47

It just has to make about $7M a week for another 9 week to reach $520. Really think that's not going to happen? {nm} elchan May 23, 19:50
