Question Lakertime Jul 01, 10:42

Larry Crowne adjust is 2.2. Fri-Mon. Check out the calendar for the adjust formula for films, esp. during holiday weekends {nm} twoshenoudas Jul 01, 11:26

Dammit...so much news while I've been internet-less on the road. {nm} Paul2k Jun 30, 17:25

Why has HPOT8 CALL not been IPO'd? It says Jun 28, 2011... {nm} EggNogAdam Jun 29, 03:49

Why does HSX insist on using inflated studio estimates... mxwizard1 Jun 27, 13:36

Because it allows trading to restart a day earlier rather than waiiting until Monday afternoon. {nm} Antibody Jun 27, 14:23

I like that answer. Even before I joined in over 10 years ago, those "inflated" numbers were the ones published in the papers, announced on Buy StarBondFund 17 ( EURO too) Jun 27, 19:33

Grats to grory for crossing the 16 billion marker...then sliding back under...and then (hopefully) crawling back over. Woot! {nm} Paul2k Jun 24, 01:36

Way to go! {nm} JohnTEQP Jun 24, 09:19

Can you Limit trade on adjusting securities? I'll be gone starting tomorrow, and I want to be able to set myself up for the OW and bonds. Paul2k Jun 23, 22:51

Yes-ish srrichardson Jun 23, 23:19

Thanks for the thorough answer...interesting note, I set a limit buy order for CARS2 with a price of 159, and it's in my queue. Paul2k Jun 23, 23:33

You're right (I had children waking up while I was typing) srrichardson Jun 24, 01:05

You'll really be unbeatable now {nm} Jane_Citizen Jun 24, 02:40

[BDTCH.CA] , With strong trending on google, a 4000% increase in searches and over 5000 screens I call a win {nm} ZJ_Management_Group [BDTCH.CA] Jun 23, 20:42

Congrats on tagging your made up facts and opinion....take a snapshot cuz it'll be gone tomorrow {nm} alfpaul Jun 23, 20:59

here are just a few links ZJ_Management_Group [BDTCH.CA] Jun 23, 21:27

adwords = google = sponsored.....not one link saying the number of screens, which you are implying as theaters....hello scribble town {nm} alfpaul Jun 23, 21:44

Saying the # of screens w/no link, tagging w/o information and outright calling a direction while doing all that = Call to Action {nm} alfpaul Jun 23, 21:48

There was no implication as theatres i specifically stated screens, i never stated only domestic but for 3800 screens domestic reported ZJ_Management_Group [BDTCH.CA] Jun 23, 21:55

What is the formula for inflation? SparkleMotion Jun 21, 14:16

They just compare ticket prices from the past to now.....kinda lazy {nm} alfpaul Jun 21, 14:44

do you have a better, more accurate way of calculating inflation??? isn't that the definition of inflation. ndmaster Jun 22, 10:03

actually, no that is a very cursory view of inflation alfpaul Jun 22, 10:15

Success with penny stocks? Jeco Jun 21, 04:36

I think penny stocks are only worth trading for short term gains within the same day with only a couple exceptions. stevie1der328 Jun 21, 06:23

I buy 'em when they hit 1 or 2 cents, and are still Concept or Development, and consider them LONG-term gambles. (I've got spare H$, and edzep Jun 21, 11:06

Referral credit? Since your friend has to make 2+ trades within 2 days, I'd guess 2 days, if they've made 2 trades. Maybe one edzep Jun 20, 14:27

Quick question. Why am I limited to only being able to buy 100,000 stocks? Is it the same for everyone? {nm} HNIF Jun 19, 02:52

itst the same for all moviestocks...for starbonds it's 20,000 {nm} tealfan Jun 19, 02:57

It's meant to level the playing field. This way a player with a million dollar port isn't able to buy a huge number of shares and MojaveMeg Jun 19, 07:08

Oops - make that a *billion* dollar port :) With no limit to the total shares available they could put their whole port into one stock. {nm} MojaveMeg Jun 19, 07:10

In the 'olden' days, you only used to be able to buy 20K shares...it was that way for a LONG time... then it went to 50K shares over time... {nm} Flash Jun 19, 08:39

Was it ever 20K? I remember it being 50K when I started. JohnTEQP Jun 19, 14:43

Maybe I'm thinking of star bonds...I think you're right.. 50K on stocks... thanks for keeping me straight. :) {nm} Flash Jun 20, 07:28

Max holding on stocks was 50,000 but earlier phases had lower limits. {nm} MojaveMeg Jun 20, 08:01

Yeah, that's where I had it mixed up...thanks to you both! :-) {nm} Flash Jun 20, 15:44

Thanks to everyone who responded. Makes sense now. {nm} HNIF Jun 19, 17:24

When movies cash out do you still pay commission (2%)? {nm} DJO Jun 18, 02:02

No {nm} Chefbobcat Jun 18, 02:30

That idea was really, really unpopular when it was floated by HSX a few months ago. Apparently they listened. {nm} JohnTEQP Jun 18, 22:58

Thanks {nm} DJO Jun 20, 03:08

Rookie question: Why is it when I buy a rising stock...... HNIF Jun 17, 09:37

no one can really tell you when or what to buy or sell but... Oleg Max Jun 17, 10:26

i am guessing you are not buying until it has already run up enough for others to start cashing in {nm} forlorne Jun 24, 11:04

There are lots of people who owned the stock long before you did. JohnTEQP Jun 17, 13:57

commissions don't cost smaller ports any more than large ones. everyone is charged the same. worrying about commissions is bad advice, IMO ndmaster Jun 17, 22:20

Agree w/ndmaster alfpaul Jun 17, 22:48

In recent days I've seen some posts with links to a movie fund page showing when last trade was made, I know how to do that with traders... twoshenoudas Jun 16, 15:21

It's on a funds profile page (not the funds stock page) click my fund name inside for example. Replace fund name in the URL to check others {nm} islander Jun 16, 15:56

Perfect, Thank you! {nm} twoshenoudas Jun 17, 03:50
