Is it me, or does shorting Source Code OW seem like a no brainer? Mar 28, 10:23
Jake = Brokeback mountain. That's why people, on a subconcious level, avoid him. {nm} Mar 28, 13:37
So, everyone who watches movies is subconsciously homophobic? Mar 28, 22:43
Yeah... I don't think that's it at all... {nm} Mar 29, 21:12
I disagree as well... I've always just seen him as a low rent Tobey MaGuire... {nm} Mar 31, 08:28
Is the Adjust Fund coming back anytime soon? {nm} Mar 27, 00:22
NEW Port Value League Level: 1 to 1.5 BILLION Mar 26, 19:05
Havent Played in a long time QUESTION Mar 26, 14:31
Nope, long gone. {nm} Mar 26, 14:33
wow that serious sucks Mar 26, 14:35
Hey! I remember you! Welcome back...long time is right! Mar 26, 16:16
Losing money on short stock. Just can't get a break Mar 25, 05:10
I hear you... Mar 25, 09:42
Are you playing with an eye on short term or long term performance fo stocks? (stupid long post part 1) Mar 25, 12:27
As for long term performance... (stupid long post part 2) Mar 25, 12:57
I think we both feel like... Mar 25, 17:43
totally agree Mar 26, 00:54
I've boosted my Bonds holdings, and it's helped a lot... my port is 4:1 bonds to moviestocks {nm} Mar 26, 02:42
Bonds are ok but ive been stung too many times Mar 26, 03:22
Having problems as you are, bonds are the first thing you should be into, to turn things around. Mar 26, 04:47
HSX Dude is good but not the end all of strategy.... Mar 26, 13:46
I would consider any StarBond adjusting for a MovieStock in release that's already reported box office short-term. {nm} Mar 27, 11:08
5:1 here...I've all but given up on the stocks save for the (relatively) sure things. {nm} Mar 26, 06:59
Ought to know, but what happens to price on delist of starbond to bucket list? {nm} Mar 24, 04:48
If a StarBond is delisted, it cashes out at his/her current TAG. {nm} Mar 24, 05:58
TriVia question.... What Movie Fund has the highest current value? (Hint: Not in the top 25 most widely held) Mar 23, 10:56
If I could buy it twice, I would. {nm} Mar 23, 13:30
That's shares held on the fund pages, not accounts holders. {nm} Mar 24, 11:26
Usually short the openers today. Not going to. Think the low bo will pick up this week {nm} Mar 20, 12:11
How long does it take for a dead movie stock to adjust to zero and delist? Mar 18, 08:14
HSX has to delist them, which they do not announce in advance, but they typically do this twice a year. {nm} Mar 18, 08:40
I think it's decided on a case-by-case basis. Mar 18, 09:17
From 9/8/10: Adam McKay Says ANCHORMAN 2 May Not Be Dead Mar 22, 14:32
OMG I wish they would make this movie. I LOVED the first one {nm} Apr 04, 19:05
ummmm...how can i buy GLEE??? im sure its a gold mine {nm} Mar 18, 06:10
TVStocks are only for new shows, not ones returning for another season. {nm} Mar 18, 06:18
so i cant buy it!!! :(:(:(:(:( {nm} Mar 18, 06:25
Dx i wanted Glee too! Dx {nm} Mar 21, 10:08
I just lost 9.5 million in 12 minutes. What just happened? I am very confused Mar 17, 22:16
get used to it cos this game has got crap {nm} Mar 19, 12:57
Maybe you had bought some stocks during the December glitch? Mar 20, 08:31
who said this market is dead??? Mar 22, 06:18
No, MovieStocks cash out at its full 4-week box office gross. The contribution to TAG is capped at $250M. {nm} Mar 17, 10:22
dammit. slow again. {nm} Mar 17, 10:23
Oops should have known that..thanks guys. {nm} Mar 17, 11:33
same old,same old Mar 16, 05:15
are you short any stocks? are you playing bonds? Mar 16, 09:02
What was your old strategy, what's your new strategy? {nm} Mar 16, 21:47
i have upped my shorts massively and it is working out great. Mar 17, 17:06
interesting groupon for a film opening wide this weekend Mar 15, 21:09
oops, meant to post this on the movies board. {nm} Mar 15, 22:44
Why is the OW for this weekend only at 20000 shares max? {nm} Mar 14, 17:49
It's a persistent error that _usually_ gets fixed. {nm} Mar 14, 20:35
By the time it gets fixed, i would have lost out on all that potential profit. This happens one to many times {nm} Mar 14, 20:50
Repeat after me... "it's only play money...it's only play money... Mar 15, 08:10
this coming from a person who has over a billion in his portfolio. {nm} Mar 15, 10:47
We all started with $2M... the reason I say this Mar 15, 14:28
These errors shouldnt occur continuously, and then the only reply is that its due to limited staff. Something that {nm} Mar 15, 14:43
happens unexpectedly and only once is understood, but for it to happen on more than one occassion Mar 15, 14:50
Two sides to every story... we really don't know what's happening behind the scenes... Mar 16, 08:44
Well, in the past 13+ years I've been here... Mar 16, 18:42
I do enjoy the game. Its good to past the time when there is nothing else to do. Mar 16, 19:03
One too many? Mar 15, 14:03
I wish they would fix it so it doesnt happen again. {nm} Mar 15, 14:52
The Remake Fund is now under new management. {nm} Mar 14, 16:05
Good luck helmetz! I applied for this fund, too. Have fun with it! {nm} Mar 14, 17:37
Thanks, eyescovered. Let's see if we can turn this baby around! {nm} Mar 15, 17:31

What's considered a solid DROI? just getting back into HSX and i'm big on star bond adjustments {nm} Mar 13, 21:49
for a port you size, at least 3% {nm} Mar 14, 06:54
i should have been more specific. i meant a good DROI for a stock. or is it the same answer? {nm} Mar 14, 17:16
In older days a 1% increase per day was considered realistic... so if you can do that, you're doing well.... Mar 14, 08:34
and i still don't understand how to calculate it for some reason. i keep finding different explanations Mar 14, 17:43
EZ DROI = (Estimated Adjust Value / Current Value) / # of days until adjust Mar 14, 20:13
wait, so is the ^ the exponential or is it division? {nm} Mar 14, 20:24
exponential {nm} Mar 14, 20:49
why the minus 1? so the number i get....what's good what's bad? {nm} Mar 14, 21:35
so what should i use to calculate DROI on bonds? and what's a 'good' DROI? {nm} Mar 14, 23:29
I use ((current price - expected price)/current price) / # days {nm} Mar 15, 12:22
a "good" DROI is anything you can afford chosen greedily from highest to lowest DROI's. {nm} Mar 15, 14:07
How many active acounts do you think there really are on HSX Mar 13, 20:09
you should join one of the Port Value Leagues ... Mar 13, 20:25
Also, in sometime the inactivity penalties will kick in and the leaderboards will be cleansed {nm} Mar 14, 04:18
Heads up people - looks like Daylight Savings Time has kicked in in the US. Adjust your local reset time accordingly. {nm} Mar 13, 15:41
I believe it has "kicked in" in several countries ;) Thanks for the reminder, I always forget. {nm} Mar 13, 16:07
Movie stocks not being locked over opening weekend anymore? nm Mar 12, 16:50
halt is not saturday night. the calendar is your friend. {nm} Mar 12, 18:10
Did you mean "halt is now saturday night"? {nm} Mar 12, 23:20
yes, sorry. {nm} Mar 13, 06:03
