If a film is limited. Do you buy or not? {nm} laujer Nov 16, 09:37

depends on where it is trading and its trend {nm} ndmaster Nov 16, 11:24

Many MovieStocks for limited films are overpriced. (Hedge...but not all) StarBond Fund 16 ...BUY BONDS Nov 16, 13:07

How the heck are you guys managing with the recent game changes? Lib84 Nov 15, 13:40

how I am managing.... RazorHawk Nov 15, 14:25

Magnificently, thank you :) {nm} amnesiac Nov 15, 16:37

just used up most of my cash. trading a little bit more. ndmaster Nov 15, 19:17

I'm more of a long term trader, so my port's doing juuuuuust fine =D DomoI Nov 15, 22:25

My stratagy Patmcw Nov 16, 05:35

Actually, I've moved up in LTD rank by over 15 points...which has been hard to do at this stage Flash Nov 16, 08:28

My port's up H$60M since the change, so it's been good to me. It's the day traders I believe causing the "caos". Rigit Nov 16, 19:55

Yeah... I'm up H$35M+ since the change and my port isn't 1/4 the size of yours. Definitely been good to me :) amnesiac Nov 17, 08:37

10 Tips for new players (0-20 MIL) Port Value League Admin Nov 14, 20:38

Thanks! I have a $155M port and I found this useful! :D {nm} Lib84 Nov 15, 09:39

TIP#0 watch for news, especially on the Announcements board. News moves stocks and bonds. {nm} ndmaster Nov 15, 13:22

While I don't disagree with this tip, I would argue that for small ports it is risky to buy/sell according to news that... Port Value League Admin Nov 15, 20:05

lets see...several bonds are attached to a blockbuster. other bonds are detached from said blockbuster. these are too risky? ndmaster Nov 15, 22:59

I don't have the corner of the market on good advice. I just thought it would be helpful to post some for a change. Port Value League Admin Nov 15, 23:36

A Billion does not cut it nowadays....it takes about 4B to really be "all in"...however...I agree that the smaller StarBond Fund 16 ...BUY BONDS Nov 16, 13:31

BTW a correction...recently the-numbers changed the format....all unreleased films use current prices for estimates StarBond Fund 16 ...BUY BONDS Nov 16, 13:25

I was not aware. Thanks for the update. {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 16, 19:12

I've looked closer at Numbers...the estimated delist price is whatever the current box office is. Numbers is completely irrelevant now. {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 17, 20:53

I was going through the movie funds, trying to figure out the way that the managers may be holding their own ports... damenchipguy Nov 14, 14:41

your not. it's just covering ours options. i do it when an opener is to close to call either way {nm} swordfish1 Nov 14, 15:40

It's a pretty common tactic, especially for big blockbuster movies where you're risking only $20,000 for potentially large gains. RogerMore Nov 14, 16:09

RM- that's not what he said. he said both derivatives long and short. i agree, your strategy can be very lucrative {nm} ndmaster Nov 14, 17:58

sorry - I obviously read dcg's post too quickly. At a guess, I would say the fund manager has flipped but forgotten to cover/sell {nm} Roger More Nov 14, 19:40

I understand, thanks I have found that digging through the funds has been telling about how the managers play. damenchipguy Nov 15, 10:30

I mean to say could be telling about how the managers port may look {nm} damenchipguy Nov 15, 10:31

Buying long call and long put MacJr Nov 14, 06:30

Looking for big move in either direction - when you're not sure which way it will move {nm} Yowster Nov 14, 07:44

I suggest that you go to the detail page and read the "prospectus" as openers is what the fund is all about... StarBond Fund 16 ...BUY BONDS Nov 14, 09:09

Thanks for noticing the fund movement, mrbinns has assisted in the gist of the explanation.. Basically, karspov Nov 14, 10:16

HSX Lingo #1: Openers RazorHawk Nov 11, 12:12

when do movies delist ? after 4 weeks? {nm} arklok Nov 11, 11:45

scroll down to the bottom of this page and click FAQ RazorHawk Nov 11, 12:05

Short answer yes. BUT you should read the FAQ. {nm} Rigit Nov 13, 21:29

Depends on their release pattern...wide/limited. Wide is 4. {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 13, 22:45

will make 270 in three wesks and make will make 140M openning weekend. {nm} MIGUELHRIVIERA Nov 10, 12:03

Harry potter will make $270M the first three weeks and $140M in openning weekend. $350M OVER ALL. {nm} MIGUELHRIVIERA Nov 10, 12:12

You'll get more Movie discussion on the Movies Board. {nm} Antibody Nov 10, 12:24

harry potter will pass the 500m over all. {nm} MIGUELHRIVIERA Nov 12, 08:22

i say $700m on the potter man. {nm} MIGUELHRIVIERA Nov 12, 08:25

If you're goint to let your other personalities post, you should make them get their own accounts. {nm} Patmcw Nov 16, 05:49

MONEY$ TOPNOTCHENT Nov 09, 12:01

WOOOT 100M itzhirsch Nov 08, 21:14

woohoo! {nm} tealfan Nov 08, 21:58

Huzzah! {nm} Hooray360 Nov 09, 09:14

congratulations! onto 1 Billion... {nm} Oleg Max Nov 09, 19:56

Congratulations! {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 10, 18:23

Why Due Date Option not yet cash out?? {nm} p3ndolinoITA Nov 08, 13:55

should happen soon. options cash out based on actual b.o., which was just released a few hours ago. wait for it. should happen by eod {nm} Oleg Max Nov 08, 13:59

thank you, i'm in Italy, here is evenining, i forget that there is afternoon :) {nm} p3ndolinoITA Nov 08, 14:02

must be nice. i want to be in Italy too... {nm} Oleg Max Nov 09, 09:33

Any type of mentor program in HSX? jeankie Nov 08, 04:59

You might consider joining the league "RazorHawk's HSX School" theun4gven Nov 08, 06:16

Just ask more questions on the Players Board {nm} RogerMore Nov 08, 18:16

doubt krapnek Nov 08, 03:52

under community tab - enter his name in the "trader watchlist" {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 08, 06:53

What day and time are free trades? I forgot. Thanks :) {nm} Telly Nov 07, 09:15

Commission-free periods are no longer - so just make your trades whenever, you will always be charged commission {nm} RogerMore Nov 07, 09:25

That sucks. Do you know why the stopped it? {nm} Telly Nov 07, 09:33

Commission-free period had a big impact on stock prices, and therefore the value of data that HSX sells RogerMore Nov 07, 09:40

It was orginaly created to encourage trading on weekends. At the time most people still had dial up Rigit Nov 13, 21:35

Port Value Leagues are open for business...New players and alumni are welcome! - apply within ;) Port Value League Admin Nov 05, 22:32

Wow, that came out small! Click carefully... {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 05, 22:34

is there no league for people below 10 mil? :( {nm} krapnek Nov 07, 04:21

Tribality used to have a league for 0-10MIL. I supported his league by not creating one at that level. (and was a grad myself) {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 07, 12:26

69 [cumulative] members and growing! Plenty of room remaining... {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 07, 12:24

When will it all end? swordfish1 Nov 05, 06:28

Until those with the $$ Flash Nov 05, 08:33

my daily changes has been getting smaller and smaller...so it's settling down it seems {nm} tealfan Nov 05, 08:54

Mine have actually been getting larger. I expect a bump on the weekend too as traders who didn't have time to trade during the week max out {nm} RogerMore Nov 05, 17:23

im making money but dropping in ranks.i might as well buy everything because nothing of this game now makes sense. it's lost the fun factor, {nm} swordfish1 Nov 06, 02:55

you own 63 securities and you are ****ing??? ndmaster Nov 05, 12:25

There is no trend to stocks or bonds.it's smash and grab.were's the fun in that? {nm} swordfish1 Nov 06, 02:51

Rocket123 is in da house! Rocket123 Nov 04, 18:18

How Holiday Warrants Work RazorHawk Nov 04, 09:34

Understanding This Weeks Changes At HSX RazorHawk Nov 03, 09:32

why do you think reset trading will be minimized by the changes? {nm} ndmaster Nov 03, 11:33

I had the same question...not disagreeing...just confused...lol {nm} tealfan Nov 03, 12:32

the game changes could change reset trading... RazorHawk Nov 03, 15:54

whoa...thx for the detailed analysis...sorry I made you type so much...hehe {nm} tealfan Nov 03, 16:33

thanks for the detailed reply. do you have to be so ticky tacky? no, I didn't quote you exactly, but we both said the same thing essentially {nm} ndmaster Nov 03, 20:42

I was not being ticky tacky (whatever that is...) RazorHawk Nov 03, 21:15

It's far from clear how this is going to work in the long term, but I see the opposite happening and the impact of reset trades increasing RogerMore Nov 04, 06:41

i think RH's point was that who the hell is going to reset trade for 3 to 5 cents profit? ndmaster Nov 04, 11:08

Yes. Bigger point is it's harder to notice what's moving in a significant way. I've already cut back on my (already minor) day trading. edzep Nov 04, 14:04

All reset trading is speculation that other players trading later in the day will follow the same price movement, and I don't see anything RogerMore Nov 04, 14:40

for what it's worth, not all trade between midnight-8am Pacific Time is 'reset trading' jane_citizen Nov 04, 15:27

Just Curious about something happening today? wedge4prez Nov 02, 07:09

yes, check the announcement board. {nm} ndmaster Nov 02, 07:20

Ah Yes TYVM {nm} wedge4prez Nov 02, 07:26

$75,000 max is great, but why is everything up? widowspeek Nov 02, 08:30

Players who already owned maximum amounts were able to buy 50% more. Buying stocks forces the price up. {nm} MojaveMeg Nov 02, 08:32

...time to UNload some CASH! :-) {nm} Flash Nov 02, 09:21

I don't object to the change, but why did they decide to do it? {nm} BuenaOnda Nov 02, 15:48

I'm guessing one of the reasons... Flash Nov 02, 16:17

Also, if you note in the Announcement... share price movements can now be just 1 cent.. this may be another factor, too. {nm} Flash Nov 02, 16:19

here is my take ndmaster Nov 02, 19:37

You are lucky. Most of mine are taking a hit. My portfolio has been dropping since the change. Not a happy camper about this. {nm} SLE Nov 03, 07:38

Now that's gonna mess up players with OCD like me. ;) {nm} 183Phi Nov 04, 09:09
