Part 2....Then again, only 4 of the delisted 25 had values over 1, and NEWT and TMSHR were the big losers, but Nov 28, 20:15
I bought GODFS long at 1 cent, as a hopeful lark. (But, shorted NEWT all the way down from the 90s.) {nm} Nov 29, 03:17
I was a "bottom feeder" playing that bounce a long time ago, but under the current version" Nov 29, 07:37
This game is getting worse. Nov 24, 06:30
I also dropped.... Nov 24, 08:50
Well... at least we have fair warning that share limits will be increased to 100K shares come January... so Nov 24, 16:10
Ive heard a good strategy is to cash out when a stock has made a good return then move on to the next big thing {nm} Nov 25, 12:59
When you have limited resources, and even a port your size is not HUGE, you have to think shorter term. So if you make Nov 27, 06:22
Well, depending on your port size, that's always a good idea... Nov 27, 15:30
the game is definitely changing, however, the upcoming changes will likely not do much, IMO Nov 24, 19:50
I'm just a bit ahead of you with my port...but Nov 25, 10:06
re Nov 29, 23:12
I agree! {nm} Nov 26, 06:41
Well ... 'Shares Held' is a unreliable indiactor for IPO initial movement Nov 23, 06:43
yeah, that probably is, make sense {nm} Nov 23, 10:33
Your Port Monkey update Nov 23, 11:59
thank you so much edzep! :D you're the man {nm} Nov 24, 03:37
maybe the rate at wich the stocks are sold also has influence {nm} Dec 02, 17:02
It seems kind of stupid that 32M shares of people thinking the IPO price was too low and 5M shares thinking it was too high Nov 23, 13:08
That puzzles me, too. I watched the Saturday IPO all day, and it's movement gave me fits Nov 24, 03:19
maybe the rate at wich the stocks are sold also has influence {nm} Dec 02, 17:03
I believe that formula is kept a secret...right next to the Colonel's secret recipe and the recipe for Coke :) {nm} Nov 22, 16:10
Amazon has the Colonel's Secret Recipe Nov 22, 18:23
FYI, you DON'T want to know the Colonel's recipe.... {nm} Nov 25, 10:12
when do you sell when a movie comes out or when it delists? {nm} Nov 21, 15:24
either way. after adjust, you may want to change your position, if you think it will not delist at its adjust price Nov 21, 17:34
what time of day do adjusts take place? Nov 24, 11:06
Hi Guys. Is there commision payable on trades now. Nov 19, 23:11
yes, there is .01 per share commission on all trades. no commission free weekends. {nm} Nov 20, 06:28
make that 1% {nm} Nov 21, 12:26
you are correct. sorry. {nm} Nov 21, 17:34
Ah math..... .01=1% That makes you both correct. {nm} Nov 22, 05:14
no, .01 per share is not the same as 1% of the trade amount, which is correct. Nov 22, 06:15
50,000 Share Limit? Nov 19, 17:46
It was increased to 75,000 on Nov 1 - and in the new announcement today, will be raised to 100,000 in January {nm} Nov 19, 18:25
The one thing I don't like about the game changes, is that IPO's can move that day. I don't like that. Nov 19, 13:52
that's the way I understood it too, but why should we have to pay a higher amount for something that is usually halted. {nm} Nov 19, 19:14
You might pay less. Once it moves, it could move either way. (And if it rises and you want to short, even better.) {nm} Nov 20, 07:54
sounds like you are making a big assumption that you are always correct on IPOs initial direction Nov 19, 21:27
i understand that they are trying to make it more like real world trading. Nov 20, 20:56
With the rule changes, it will hurt playing Razor's STV list; am I correct? Shorting small stocks will not be wise? {nm} Nov 19, 10:45
Sorting a stock that is 2 cents or less would not be wise with a 2 cent per share commission, but Nov 19, 10:59
If a potential STV is down to .01, leave it alone. Higher? short it. Not hard, even with the new rules. {nm} Nov 19, 17:41
So you'd short a 2 cent stock with the new minimum 2 cent per share commission? Nov 19, 20:17
IDK why there has to be wise-cracks. A 2 cent comm on small stocks(buy and sell) will hurt the profit margin, Starbond why? Nov 19, 21:06
As to the original question, it is always wise to short a future STV (as long as the price is greater than .02) {nm} Nov 20, 15:30
I got it, less margin but easy money, Thank You :) {nm} Nov 21, 07:57
Net Worth: H$900,187,944.69, 100 mill to till 1 BILLION DOLLARS! {nm} Nov 19, 07:44
HOLY SMOKES! CROSSED 600 MIL!! Nov 19, 04:19
First time I am $6 mill + in 30 days Nov 19, 03:42
It's been a good run-up...if you were holding them right :) Happy Trading. {nm} Nov 19, 09:32
Post adjust probability based on range of predictions - Based on current prices. Nov 18, 23:54
Probably should have posted in movies...next time. {nm} Nov 18, 23:56
How does HSX Blog "Whisper Numbers" come up with its predictions? Nov 18, 23:38
I am holding my stocks exactly the opposite of their movement today...damn you, day traders ;) {nm} Nov 17, 16:48
Same here, every single 75k holding is red and the shorts are green lol... {nm} Nov 18, 03:36
yesterday started out horrible for me, and ended positive. the slingshot effect is continuing, having a great day already {nm} Nov 18, 07:12
ditto... I started out yesterday morning down H$1.2M. By the end of the day I was up H$1m+. {nm} Nov 18, 07:43
well we can't say the new game isn't more challenging...lol {nm} Nov 18, 08:51
...and today it's the opposite. Thank you Day Traders ;) {nm} Nov 18, 11:56
Question regarding the new the new shares held on HSX stat and IPO's Nov 17, 07:21
best thing to do is watch current IPOs and the shares held. its a learning experience for all of us! {nm} Nov 17, 08:41
you're right- yesterday's IPO's moved exacly the opposite of what they would have had my logic been correct. Thanks. (nm) Nov 18, 09:45

A film opens limited rel then goes wide - Will it adjust two times? {nm} Nov 16, 13:56
Nope. A movie can only adjust once. {nm} Nov 16, 13:57
Basically, if a film opens 'limited' first... and then opens wide... HSX does this: Nov 16, 14:32
plus, limited release movies don't adjust {nm} Nov 16, 14:33
True...although he was asking 'when it goes wide' which is why I wanted to explain 'how' it adjusts if it did go wide Nov 16, 14:40
Thanks everyone - you helped {nm} Nov 16, 19:19
