Is my logic correct here? bloopster Feb 16, 00:07

yes, that is guaranteed profit. it's called arbitrage, or ARB {nm} ndmaster Feb 16, 05:34

Yes, I'm familiar with arbitrage. It makes sense when dealing with Star Bond adjusts and Movie Stock delists - BO is unpredictable. bloopster Feb 16, 14:11

? {nm} ndmaster Feb 16, 20:02

Guaranteed, not maximised srrichardson Feb 17, 07:51

Please update to the latest Chimp so the trader box doesn't get embedded when you post. {nm} Antibody Feb 17, 11:32

Took a bath on the Grammy delist combined with bad GNOME.OW. At least I called the other 2, so it softened the blow... {nm} Port value league admin Feb 14, 22:44

Esperanza Spalding almost killed my port if it weren't for that bieber kid and gnome {nm} krapnek Feb 15, 03:35

yeah that Gnome OW held in reverse was some bad juju for my port too :( {nm} jane_citizen Feb 15, 13:49

If you want to request a Starbond, email macdaddy at hsx.com with a list of past and future credits RogerMore Feb 12, 16:25

1) Send all requests to macdaddy@hsx.com 2) what HSX films has he directed in the past? What is the future? 4) See inside Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Feb 12, 16:38

He directed Step Up 2; Step Up 3D; Justin Beiber and is on the shortlist for GI Joe 2 {nm} RazorHawk Feb 12, 19:28

At IMDB Jon + h = another director {nm} Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Feb 13, 10:32

More new features for Port Monkey! Quickly retrieve & display the description of any security. edzep Feb 11, 12:24

An appeal to fund managers edzep Feb 11, 12:45

Dang. Wish I could use this but I've moved to FF4. {nm} eyescovered Feb 11, 16:32

We'll get you back in the fold... when the time is right for FF4 and Greasemonkey. You were actually the first person to join Port Monkeys! {nm} edzep Feb 11, 16:45

Eyescovered, why not just use Chimp, for now. It will still beat the tar out of whatever method you're currently using to trade. edzep Feb 11, 17:11

Cancel that. Today, I got Port Monkey working with Firefox 4. {nm} edzep Feb 12, 12:00

Happy that Port Monkey in FF4 loads my port MUCH faster. Thanks edzep! {nm} Paul2k Feb 12, 12:05

Great to hear! Thank you for the report. {nm} edzep Feb 12, 12:10

Hmm edzep Feb 13, 09:02

Can you fix the code so your trade box doesn't appear inside Forum posts, thanks. {nm} Antibody Feb 13, 11:01

Huh? Can you provide some specific information? Cuz, obviously, I have not seen that. edzep Feb 13, 11:17

Or, do you mean Chimp simply not appear on Forum pages? {nm} edzep Feb 13, 11:22

Or, do you mean on the page, when reading the inside message of post or reply? {nm} edzep Feb 13, 11:33

i have a pic inside ( i think) can you see the trade box in the upper left? islander Feb 13, 11:35

Thanks. So, does Chimp do this just on inside message displays? Does it otherwise work as expected, elsewhere? edzep Feb 13, 11:49

Ah-ha, progress! Yes, I can see it -- when I view your specific post about 4 longs. edzep Feb 13, 12:32

not2fast's post... ok {nm} edzep Feb 13, 12:54

if ti helps, mahondas is another player whose IM has the same thing. thats all i have across afaik {nm} islander Feb 13, 13:22

thank you {nm} edzep Feb 13, 14:03

not2fast, need to know if you noticed or did anything unusual when you made that post. edzep Feb 13, 13:03

RazorHawk... edzep Feb 13, 13:09

sorry, been gone most of this weekend... RazorHawk Feb 13, 13:18

Can you recall, and find a couple of places where you've seen it. edzep Feb 13, 13:23

ignore edzep Feb 17, 17:53

ignore edzep Feb 17, 17:54

Yes, I noticed that when I was posting. I was wondering if it woud hose up the message. I have Chimp turned off now. not2fast Feb 13, 13:33

I tried turning it back on for this message, but I don't see anything in the Message box. not2fast Feb 13, 13:36

I see it did post the graphic that time, so I have just turned it off again. {nm} not2fast Feb 13, 13:38

But, it is there! I have Chimp off, and see the title bar near the left (maybe scroll down a bit) {nm} edzep Feb 13, 13:38

I only see the time box in the top right and the time remains the same if I reclick the IM. {nm} grammar Feb 13, 23:42

But, the point is that you DO see it. edzep Feb 14, 03:16

Thank you. I'm getting a clue. I think I'll post a Chimp version that keeps it turned off in the Forum pages. edzep Feb 13, 13:43

Chimp, Chimp, Chimp edzep Mar 31, 11:15

test2 edzep Mar 31, 11:33

What if I threw a party... edzep Apr 02, 05:08

DMac, or anyone who may care, I think I'm getting a conceptual picture of what's happened edzep Feb 13, 17:52

I get this periodically but I'm sure it's not a PM problem but tather the players. I usually close and reopen FF and all is well. {nm} grammar Feb 13, 23:28

The new normal? Just an observation... Paul2k Feb 06, 00:57

oop...and 1:00 AM PST hits, and we're off to the races... Paul2k Feb 06, 01:11

i give up with this game swordfish1 Feb 04, 03:50

I hear you... seems like gains are much harder these days...I've been here a bit longer...game's changed a lot since then... {nm} Flash Feb 04, 08:52

I have no idea what you guys are talking about JohnTEQP Feb 04, 22:21

I'm not complaining, per se.... Flash Feb 05, 07:56

interesting. i have been shorting development moviestocks and have had a great 3 months {nm} ndmaster Feb 05, 19:07

shorting star bonds and bad movies has worked well for me {nm} amateurfun Feb 09, 18:11

Any tips for those of us with smaller ports? I've been stuck in the 170 million range since the beginning of December and can't seem to grow {nm} Steved1998 Feb 08, 12:41

4 tips for you JonH86 Feb 08, 18:44

2 of the funds have been going backward for a while. I think a couple more were doing poorly, but are under new management. edzep Feb 08, 20:36

Maxing out funds is actually 12.8mil. Of my JonH86 Feb 08, 21:09

2/3 to 3/4 of all movies are (should be held as) shorts! Yeah, you can lose a lot by holding those babies long. edzep Feb 08, 21:52

Hmmm thank you for saying that. I have JonH86 Feb 08, 23:40

Through the port monkey link I discovered chimp JonH86 Feb 08, 23:49

Indeed edzep Feb 09, 04:37

Thanks! {nm} Steved1998 Feb 10, 08:52

Starbonds, good, consistent money to be made. shorting low-mid priced stocks, especially in development or concept ndmaster Feb 09, 12:29

Can someone explain to me why A1PTSN is sinking? It's not like TSN doesn't have its chances at the oscars is it? {nm} theinsider Feb 02, 17:36

My guess...some people play the stock, others play the players. {nm} Port value league admin Feb 02, 18:09

A basic implication problem.... Note: -> is the mathematical symbol for implication ......SO...In this century, if you are not ALEE.... Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Feb 02, 21:15

Very interesting. That means that while the best picture is voted by producers, DGA is a better barometer for the oscar? {nm} lefrench Feb 02, 22:31

Best Picture is not voted on by producers JohnTEQP Feb 03, 10:43

HSX Speed: What Are You Browsing? - The HSX Dude RazorHawk Feb 02, 08:37

thanks and I grnned when I saw the Chrome ad at the bottom...lol {nm} tealfan Feb 02, 08:50

that is funny {nm} RazorHawk Feb 02, 10:47

RH, see if Chimp, my new HSX trade widget, may fit into your HSX Speed series. edzep Feb 02, 12:33

cool! I will check it out.... RazorHawk Feb 02, 13:37

Let me see if I can do an attractive info post, here. edzep Feb 02, 16:51

Not yet. Maybe, this. edzep Feb 02, 16:56

This is when I really wish these posts were editible. edzep Feb 02, 19:09

I would think most of the posts here would taste terrible. {nm} DTravel Feb 08, 22:11

I installed Chimp - seems nice but the share amts are for stocks. Any way you can 5k or 10k so it can used for bonds also - thanks!! {nm} JDolphin Feb 02, 17:48

Interesting... edzep Feb 02, 18:10

I like the custom qty. idea. Check tomorrow (maybe late) at edzep Feb 02, 19:24

That was so easy, you can check back now. edzep Feb 02, 19:49

That works great! Thanks alot!!! I customized it to 1k 5k and 10k {nm} JDolphin Feb 02, 20:54

Don't forget to join Port Monkeys! (or, how can I ever regain the biggest league title from RazorHawk?) {nm} edzep Feb 02, 21:17

Shorting Goldmanslags Feb 02, 08:00

it seems you are talking about two separate issues ndmaster Feb 02, 08:11

Ive got options on the oscar nominees, and I expect them not to win, so Ive gone short, am I confused? {nm} Goldmanslags Feb 02, 08:54

nope, if you think they will not win, shorting them is the right move ndmaster Feb 02, 11:52

Generally how many weeks does it take for a movie to delist if there is no box office reporting? MyGrimmReality Feb 02, 02:31

same as a limited release that does report. After 12 weekends. {nm} osmosis2003 Feb 02, 02:42

Fund Week Winter 2011: Theme Funds (Pt 3) - The HSX Dude RazorHawk Jan 31, 21:46

Teacher looking for help tcanty Jan 30, 09:34

Most classes I see on here utilize the League feature... eyescovered Jan 31, 06:50

I think Moviestocks are more comparable to the stock market than Starbonds. ndmaster Jan 31, 07:32

Starbonds offer the best way in which to increase networth... laujer Jan 31, 07:44

agreed, but that's not what they were asking ndmaster Jan 31, 08:35

You can choose to play riskier by playing openers and daytrading...or more safely with starbonds, derivatives, funds, etc.. Flash Jan 31, 08:03

Selling a stock that you shorted? shelact Jan 30, 10:57

is hsx dude on vacation? been waiting for his fund article {nm} islander Jan 28, 12:30

Yep, no free money report either, maybe he's busy with work or something... {nm} krapnek Jan 28, 17:09

Free Money Reports are on Saturdays {nm} RazorHawk Jan 28, 17:58

I know, but did you post one this week? Maybe I missed it... {nm} krapnek Jan 29, 06:11

How does the de-listing work if you own a fund that passes the H$100, and will I be notified when the fund picks up it's next incarnation? {nm} Rhaptor Jan 28, 04:57

No - you take your cash and then have to keep an eye on the Markey Calendar {nm} srrichardson Jan 28, 07:42

It gets delisted just like a MovieStock does. And, like the post above says, watch the calendar for when it reIPOs. {nm} eyescovered Jan 28, 08:41

I know that CAINE delisted on 1/28 at before 9AM HST, but it did not appear on the calendar, yet. {nm} Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Jan 28, 21:28

Question about limit price trading TrillPhil Jan 26, 18:16

you can't, HSX does not allow limit trading like that (stop loss orders) {nm} lapuckfan Jan 26, 18:21

The reason HSX does not allow this, is to prevent manipulation of the stock prices... Flash Jan 26, 18:26

Why are the AwardOptions already moving? Shouldn't they be frozen today? {nm} cmbastos Jan 26, 09:51

why would they be frozen? {nm} RazorHawk Jan 26, 09:57

It used to be that IPO's would stand still on their issuing day {nm} cmbastos Jan 26, 10:03

Check stock pages for IPOs. After a certain amount of shares are sold, they start moving. eyescovered Jan 26, 10:05

That's new to me... I don't recall this happening to NominOptions though. Thanks. {nm} cmbastos Jan 26, 10:07

It's one of the more recent changes here.... for better or for worse... eyescovered Jan 26, 10:10

More trouble for international players on a different time-zone than the US. {nm} cmbastos Jan 26, 10:31

Meh, some of you can play 'reset' in the middle of the day, while US players would have to be up in the middle of the night. {nm} edzep Jan 26, 11:37

Time matters not to the unemployed. lol {nm} Lucas73 Jan 27, 00:50

So, when do we get an IPO on Hailee Steinfeld? thomasmckenzie Jan 26, 09:20

Probably as soon as she's cast in another movie (which is rumored to be HGAME). {nm} eyescovered Jan 26, 10:07

** This post has been removed by the forum moderator! ** the_steveinator Jan 25, 13:35

Someone studied this (i think islander) krapnek Jan 26, 03:07

I think being on the front page of HSX had something to do with it too. {nm} Ramdadof3 Jan 26, 06:08

Can someone announce when all the NomniOptions are done? {nm} laujer Jan 25, 12:16

done! {nm} ndmaster Jan 25, 12:39
