When will TV Stocks open? {nm} as329105 Aug 19, 11:52

Just before the new TV Season. Watch the Celendar. ...last year CW started early so their warrants IPO'd first. {nm} Buy BONDS 17 Now (EURO Too) Aug 19, 19:10

this is how it works: Jane_Citizen Aug 18, 18:10

I'm past 100M, so I keep thinking about applying for a fund... slappydavid Aug 18, 09:45

That makes sense... slappydavid Aug 18, 11:45

I'd try to identify a theme that was more Starbond oriented. Bonds allow for a more guaranteed return. I ran the MojaveMeg Aug 18, 13:24

However, movie funds that are too open in investment options are not approved. Antibody Aug 18, 14:30

Can funds daytrade stocks that don't fit within their fund limitations? Flash Aug 19, 07:59

Of course not. {nm} Antibody Aug 19, 10:26

I didn't think so, but daytrading seems to be a very limited area for funds, that's all I meant... thanks for the info! {nm} Flash Aug 19, 14:31

How do you formally apply for a fund if you have an idea? {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 19, 11:40

nevermind {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 19, 11:42

Maybe you can run a fund that only invests in movies post-adjust {nm} JohnTEQP Aug 22, 19:44

A couple of quick questions... broy7 Aug 17, 15:31

For your first question, all cashout timelines are on the Market Calendar under the News & Events tab. There are no commissions on cashouts. {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 17, 15:48

I know that the cashouts are in the Market Calendar, but The Help isn't listed yet (too far into the future). It was released wednesday, but broy7 Aug 17, 17:03

HSX has said the reason they don't allow "stop loss" orders is because Flash Aug 17, 18:48

Sorry...for some reason, this posted 'here'...and it belongs under the 'Limit Orders' post below... {nm} Flash Aug 18, 07:59

MovieStocks of wide release films cash out after four weeks of wide release. Antibody Aug 17, 17:30

it'd be great if the market calendar delists/OW adusts data went four weeks ahead? Jane_Citizen Aug 18, 18:21

... also, if my tea could be brought to me in bed in the mornings, that would be convenient. {nm} Jane_Citizen Aug 18, 18:23

Hmm... Don't really see that happening any time soon. :P {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 19, 00:17

Limit orders Worlock Aug 17, 10:15

I know they can in some situations be helpful, but I generally look at limit orders as worthless on here... PRodQuanta Aug 17, 10:22

Personally find limit buys useful alfpaul Aug 17, 10:25

Ya, I agree. That's why I said they can be in some situations. {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 17, 11:46

I find them useful as a lot happens when I'm asleep srrichardson Aug 17, 23:14

Thanks Worlock Aug 17, 10:35

um.....you can't alfpaul Aug 17, 10:22

I have a new goal: Attempt to make $1B each year from this year onwards. accountant_4_Jesus Aug 17, 06:33

I do it and the days that I can and let me say this: be careful. I had a similar initial experience, then I started waking up to find that PRodQuanta Aug 17, 09:36

I've never done it. My sleep is too precious... Accountant's from Australia I think, so he doesn't have to deal with the sleeping part {nm} slappydavid Aug 17, 12:21

Oh, that's nice. I would go for it then! {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 17, 12:28

Yes I am from Australia. But I woke up this morning to a nasty experience... Next-to all the gains I made last night were wiped out. accountant_4_Jesus Aug 17, 17:13

Yeah, reset movers are not day-long investments, that much I know. Actually I think your time zone is close to perfect for reset play slappydavid Aug 17, 18:27

Well, I didn't actually know until now that reset movers aren't day-long investments. accountant_4_Jesus Aug 17, 20:04

I've never understood something. Dorfman Aug 17, 02:28

I honestly have no idea myself... accountant_4_Jesus Aug 17, 05:38

Connected to that... srrichardson Aug 17, 08:48

THAT is annoying. I hate when news comes out and I have little money in the bank and I try to buy a stock max and it rejects it... {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 17, 09:27

My theory: PRodQuanta Aug 17, 09:30

However, I do understand that it is frustrating to want to buy a stock at price x and you are actually paying x + some perturbation. {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 17, 09:32

Yes, otherwise it's nearly an automatic profit on every trade. {nm} Antibody Aug 17, 11:56

Hey DMac, do you guys keep track of total number of shares traded in a day on the exchange? I'm curious to see if today was close to record. {nm} Paul2k Aug 15, 22:25

Quick question, do the OW, call, and put warrants cash out at the estimated number that the moviestocks adjust to or the actuals from Mon? {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 15, 14:39

actuals {nm} islander Aug 15, 14:41

thanks! {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 15, 14:43

What would be an efficient way to find the securities that are LOSING value quickest for today? GuitarGenius7 Aug 15, 09:46

If I understand what you are trying to do (lose money quickly), here is the best way (as all day traders probably know): PRodQuanta Aug 15, 11:10

hahahahha. Noted. Actually I was trying to ask something like "I want to short stuff. How can I find what stocks are falling?" GuitarGenius7 Aug 15, 11:56

I recommend using edzep's Port Monkey addon. It allows you to see how stocks in your portfolio have moved since your last browser refresh. Paul2k Aug 15, 12:18

Also, if you follow the path On The Exchange->Moviestocks, they show the stocks that have fallen the most today. PRodQuanta Aug 15, 13:23

a first for me. H$900K+ gain on one security! KaylahCOV Aug 15, 07:57

Same here but it was Glee :-) {nm} Gijoevu Aug 15, 08:13

how did Glee do? Was it a short for you? {nm} KaylahCOV Aug 15, 09:17

Yeap Short, made $1.3M {nm} Gijoevu Aug 18, 00:25

WAAAAAAAAAAGUUUUUUUU {nm} KaylahCOV Aug 15, 14:01

over H$1 Mill on one security! I never thought I'd get that lucky! YEEAAAA!! {nm} KaylahCOV Aug 15, 14:02

Trading recently unhalted stocks, does this strategy work? 121Jigowatts Aug 14, 21:00

One can try that method, but you won't find absolute success with it. Any trades made today on a stock that is "frozen" have no effect on Paul2k Aug 14, 21:04

This applies to opening weekend stocks which halt on Sat, adjust and freeze price on Sun; as well as to IPOs that do not meet their reserve. {nm} Paul2k Aug 14, 21:05

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that. Appreciate the fast response. {nm} 121Jigowatts Aug 14, 21:30

Ok, to achieve my goal of $1B in a year, I think I'm going to need to start daytrading. Anyone got some helpful hints? accountant_4_Jesus Aug 14, 13:48

reset {nm} ndmaster Aug 14, 18:49

You just want me to be behind you in the rankings again, don't you? :P {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 14, 20:14

Buy low, sell high. Short high, cover low. Reset trade. {nm} PrezBO Aug 14, 20:33

Some things are easier said than done. Others are easier done than said. Reset trading is the former. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 15, 05:14

Why, it's almost those on the west coast have a bulit-in advantage. Has anyone ever complained about this before? {nm} PrezBO Aug 15, 06:06

I dunno, you seem to be doing pretty well in The Billionaire Society, nipping at my heels. Paul2k Aug 14, 20:51

You know, before you pointed out about that league, I'd completely forgotten I was a member! accountant_4_Jesus Aug 15, 05:13

you need 150 million and have 850 million to invest. I made 200 million in the last 90 days. You should be able to do it in 4 months... PVL Admin Aug 14, 21:05

Thanks for those tips. But I'm actually trying to gain $460M in 4.5 months to have a total of $1B gained this year. accountant_4_Jesus Aug 15, 05:06

You do realize that September, October, and part of November are very slow, right? {nm} PrezBO Aug 15, 06:05

Yes I do. That's why I want to start to reset trade now, to make up for the slowness. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 15, 06:28

Hey Prezbo Dorfman Aug 14, 00:44

Congrats! I've got a couple of traders I'm looking at passing soon too. ;) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 14, 03:18

Hey Dorfman PrezBO Aug 15, 16:36

Passed ya again haha {nm} Dorfman Aug 16, 02:31

Harry Potter Blockbuster warrant reZpect Aug 13, 01:51

Yes that's true. The technical term that people here use for that situation is ARB. Not sure if you needed to tag the warrant though. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 13, 07:57

This warrant will probably stay ARB from now until delist. Its potential delist price will keep rising as HPOT8 will probably still be in Buy BONDS 17 Now (EURO Too) Aug 13, 08:54

new players. ARB-an arbitrage is risk-free reZpect Aug 13, 13:51

Results of penny stock experiment PVL Admin Aug 12, 17:29

Previous posts relating to same strategy: PVL Admin Aug 12, 17:41

That's not a bad experiment... Maybe I should try something like it. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 13, 00:55

My results (who started this? can't remember) edzep Aug 13, 15:17

Don't know...but there's gotta be some use for the penny stocks. IMHO, this is it. It can't lose (in the long run). Very long term invest PVL Admin Aug 13, 15:40
