Why is the OW for this weekend only at 20000 shares max? {nm} MasterofPinball1983 Mar 14, 17:49

It's a persistent error that _usually_ gets fixed. {nm} edzep 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} MasterofPinball1983 Mar 14, 20:50

Repeat after me... "it's only play money...it's only play money... Flash Mar 15, 08:10

this coming from a person who has over a billion in his portfolio. {nm} MasterofPinball1983 Mar 15, 10:47

We all started with $2M... the reason I say this Flash Mar 15, 14:28

These errors shouldnt occur continuously, and then the only reply is that its due to limited staff. Something that {nm} MasterofPinball1983 Mar 15, 14:43

happens unexpectedly and only once is understood, but for it to happen on more than one occassion MasterofPinball1983 Mar 15, 14:50

Two sides to every story... we really don't know what's happening behind the scenes... Flash Mar 16, 08:44

Lost opportunities isnt the point. The point is a continuous error involving OW not being set to 100000 shares that was implemented by MasterofPinball1983 Mar 16, 18:16

Well, in the past 13+ years I've been here... Flash Mar 16, 18:42

I do enjoy the game. Its good to past the time when there is nothing else to do. MasterofPinball1983 Mar 16, 19:03

One too many? DomoI Mar 15, 14:03

I wish they would fix it so it doesnt happen again. {nm} MasterofPinball1983 Mar 15, 14:52

The Remake Fund is now under new management. {nm} Antibody Mar 14, 16:05

Good luck helmetz! I applied for this fund, too. Have fun with it! {nm} eyescovered Mar 14, 17:37

Thanks, eyescovered. Let's see if we can turn this baby around! {nm} helmetz Mar 15, 17:31

What's considered a solid DROI? just getting back into HSX and i'm big on star bond adjustments {nm} funnybillypro Mar 13, 21:49

for a port you size, at least 3% {nm} ndmaster 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} funnybillypro 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.... Flash Mar 14, 08:34

and i still don't understand how to calculate it for some reason. i keep finding different explanations funnybillypro Mar 14, 17:43

EZ DROI = (Estimated Adjust Value / Current Value) / # of days until adjust Chefbobcat Mar 14, 20:13

wait, so is the ^ the exponential or is it division? {nm} funnybillypro Mar 14, 20:24

exponential {nm} Chefbobcat Mar 14, 20:49

why the minus 1? so the number i get....what's good what's bad? {nm} funnybillypro Mar 14, 21:35

The exponential formula is used for calculating ROI on compounding investments - nothing here is a compounding interest investment {nm} DTravel Mar 14, 22:01

so what should i use to calculate DROI on bonds? and what's a 'good' DROI? {nm} funnybillypro Mar 14, 23:29

I use ((current price - expected price)/current price) / # days {nm} DTravel Mar 15, 12:22

a "good" DROI is anything you can afford chosen greedily from highest to lowest DROI's. {nm} DomoI Mar 15, 14:07

How many active acounts do you think there really are on HSX David_Francis Mar 13, 20:09

you should join one of the Port Value Leagues ... jane_citizen Mar 13, 20:25

Also, in sometime the inactivity penalties will kick in and the leaderboards will be cleansed {nm} krapnek Mar 14, 04:18

thanks for the suggestion, i joined that PVL, and i'm looking forward to those penalties kicking in! this is one addictive game! {nm} David_Francis Mar 14, 11:41

Heads up people - looks like Daylight Savings Time has kicked in in the US. Adjust your local reset time accordingly. {nm} osmosis2003 Mar 13, 15:41

I believe it has "kicked in" in several countries ;) Thanks for the reminder, I always forget. {nm} Port Value League Admin Mar 13, 16:07

Movie stocks not being locked over opening weekend anymore? nm blackredstar Mar 12, 16:50

halt is not saturday night. the calendar is your friend. {nm} ndmaster Mar 12, 18:10

Did you mean "halt is now saturday night"? {nm} DTravel Mar 12, 23:20

yes, sorry. {nm} ndmaster Mar 13, 06:03

Any advide for making money off the Idol stocks? Steved1998 Mar 12, 15:41

They tell you the bottom three every week. aaronl5 Mar 12, 17:20

If you know anyone that watches the show, ask them who the crowd faves are. Otherwise, check out magazines/sites like EW. Even the local eyescovered Mar 12, 18:05

,,,,and DO NOT discount the votefortheworst.com factor. Extra votes keep the Sunjaya's of AI alive. {nm} Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Mar 12, 18:46

Short half of them {nm} laujer Mar 13, 07:36

if you look down three post you'll get your answer {nm} MasterofPinball1983 Mar 11, 10:10

WHY smaller ports should NOT invest in movies that are far out from release (like PIRT4, etc) Flash Mar 11, 15:02

I think Flash's post was supposed to go in the thread below this one. {nm} DTravel Mar 11, 20:39

If you look at the (insane (or someone in their 60s using the internets)) OP, you'll find that statement incorrect. =) {nm} DomoI Mar 11, 21:31

It was....HOW did it end up here??? lol {nm} Flash Mar 12, 16:27

Although it applies here too... he's got a smaller port, and buying PIRT4 is best left alone with smaller ports... {nm} Flash Mar 12, 16:28

Pennystock Trading and HSBR alternative funnybillypro Mar 09, 12:50

wow what's that HSBR? I think I'm interested {nm} krapnek Mar 09, 13:26

It was a website operated by fans which used the feeds to create graphs that were updated every 5 minutes. {nm} Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Mar 09, 17:07

I wish I knew about HSBR when it was around. As an aside, in order to make $ on pennystocks it now needs to go up by 5c. {nm} hexalogue Mar 09, 17:59

do the penny stocks generally go up by 5 cents? i used to set limit orders for changes of .02 and .03 usually... {nm} funnybillypro Mar 10, 11:12

Is the HSX actually going on line with REAL MONEY in APRIL? herzogfloatybits Mar 07, 17:11

Long gone...hsbr Too bad....it was great. {nm} mrbinns Mar 07, 12:42

ahh well..... funnybillypro Mar 07, 12:51

so there's no other alternative to HSBR's day graphs? <nm> {nm} funnybillypro Mar 08, 09:23

Is there still a commission free day? Or is that long gone? [nm] JonH86 Mar 02, 22:47

Long gone {nm} Chefbobcat Mar 02, 23:28

Day trading eats up lots of commissions JohnTEQP Mar 04, 09:32

Re: day trading JonH Mar 06, 18:11

The way I've been looking at it, especially in light of the ups and downs of the market lately, is that if you're going to day trade Paul2k Mar 07, 11:50
