what happens if i short a nominoption and it delists at zero. Do i have to cover the short before it delists? {nm} David_Francis Jan 20, 21:03

no, nothing required by you. HSX simply credits your account for your profit. {nm} ndmaster Jan 20, 22:11

You double your investment at zero delete {nm} laujer Jan 21, 07:49

Roger, thanks for the 'sensible' reply. I appreciate it. {nm} daturk Jan 20, 15:50

Can someone tell me what the 'RS/MTC' rule is? {nm} daturk Jan 20, 10:46

When the moons of Jupiter align with Saturn on an odd numbered day of an even numbered month... amnesiac Jan 20, 12:53

The important part is if RS tracking is significantly above MTC, the movie will under-perform on opening weekend. RogerMore Jan 20, 15:21

Fund Week Winter 2011: Theme Funds (Pt 1) - The HSX Dude RazorHawk Jan 18, 10:46

Shorting a film that cashes out/delists at zero. You still net your profit, right? {nm} ONAN Jan 18, 09:24

Absolutely correct. As long as it delists at $0 {nm} laujer Jan 18, 09:29

Anytime you short a stock, and it delists at zero...no matter what price you shorted it at...you double your money... {nm} Flash Jan 19, 07:18

Is there any chance a film like VO7ST could go wide or is it just idle hope? jeankie Jan 18, 02:39

In these cases, it's a good thing to check out the distributor in boxofficemojo.com. RogerMore Jan 18, 07:03

Ok, thank oyu, I didn't even know you could look something like that up... :) {nm} jeankie Jan 18, 07:26

you can also use HSX's Advanced Search to look up the distributor... RazorHawk Jan 18, 07:32

Only one flick this weekend Dilemma C- {nm} An Old Actor Jan 16, 21:15

It did sound pretty bad, and way underperformed... {nm} VictorY Jan 17, 17:20

and i thank it for underperforming. made 375 shorting [DILEM] and another 280 on the opening put. thx RH {nm} amateurfun Jan 19, 23:21

Sweet, went with "Hornet," thanks www.moviecriticassassins.com..... your prediction for Hornet is going to seal my win... {nm} VictorY Jan 16, 18:29

44 for GRNHT and 28 for DILEM are both higher than the others. I will add it to my prediction list anyway though. Thanks for sharing URL {nm} Port Value League Admin Jan 16, 19:22

You went with the site you've been actively promoting on the boards? Never saw that coming. {nm} RogerMore Jan 17, 08:28

I'm pretty sure there's a section in ToS about unauthorized advertising. Can we please get this douche banned? {nm} DomoI Jan 17, 14:08

Ha Ha... Domol needs a hug apparently.... Site does best at calling the number one film, that's my favorite use for it... VictorY Jan 17, 17:13

Each and every one of those predictions were pretty hard to get wrong, plus your account was made only for the purposes of advertising it. {nm} DomoI Jan 17, 18:24

What you are doing Victor is called astroturfing... and it is frowned upon here... RazorHawk Jan 17, 19:24

Good work RazorHawk {nm} JohnTEQP Jan 18, 21:28

This again, Razor how am I "multiple accounts," when all your listed entries say "VictorY," NEWS FLASH, I'm VictorY today as I was then. {nm} VictorY Mar 19, 02:53

Wow. Must have touched a nerve... VictorY Jan 19, 05:03

Plus its funny how Razorhawk selectively lists some of my posts and ignores the rest I've made. {nm} VictorY Jan 19, 05:17

Fund Week Winter 2011: Studio Funds - The HSX Dude RazorHawk Jan 15, 14:18

good info. i actually acted on a few of your recomendations because they made sense. ty Oleg Max Jan 15, 16:16

I dont know much about computer things, so no idea why your work would block it RazorHawk Jan 15, 17:37

The web host is a "social" site and your bosses don't want you playing while at work possibly, Oleg? :-D {nm} DTravel Jan 15, 19:35

that probably is it. we don't have access at work to sites like facebook, gmail, etc. Oleg Max Jan 16, 07:35

Bam...the Dude pulls no punches...a modern day Howard Cosell ! You can run, but you can't hide... BUY StarBondFund Short the Pats Jan 16, 06:25

I'd like to note that the manager of PARAX is also a 'tard as evidenced by "His H$600M+ portfolio ranks in the top 98% of users" {nm} DomoI Jan 16, 07:32

In PARAX's defense, however, I'd like to note that it has consistently gained in the last month, and is the 2nd top Studio Fund DomoI Jan 16, 07:57

Thanks for the extra analysis. Very useful info. Caused me to trade some I hadn't intended to originally. {nm} Port Value League Admin Jan 16, 12:30

Excellent work - Thanks {nm} aaronl5 Jan 16, 14:29

great analysis; having managed a number of funds, all I can say is that if you want to abandon your fund, at least let HSX know daveart Jan 17, 08:25

I don't know what to do anymore {nm} DISNXFund May 05, 08:57

saw the green hornet SCCA99 Jan 15, 12:25

yeah cos Batman was totally believeable. lol. What bits were unbelieveable in it? {nm} Lucas73 Jan 15, 22:18

yesterday, two films of Zoe saldana are released. It's means that both Avatar and Star trek will drop from the TAG? {nm} p3ndolinoITA Jan 15, 07:15

Yes, but only if both films report Box Office. Keep an eye on them over the next 4 weeks. If nothing by then, good chance nothing at all. {nm} osmosis2003 Jan 15, 07:21

There was always a question about BPALM....we will know definitively on Monday afternoon....if no box BUY StarBondFund Short the Pats Jan 16, 06:28

OMG MLK....make that Tuesday afternoon. {nm} BUY StarBondFund Short the Pats Jan 16, 06:29

If both report, she will only drop trek, because of double opener rule, right? {nm} HollywoodTycoon61 Jan 15, 22:24

No. {nm} DomoI Jan 16, 07:11

there is no "double opener rule"; please do post false information {nm} RazorHawk Jan 17, 05:27
