It's there now {nm} RogerMore Sep 07, 18:34

TVStocks not showing in Portfolio swcreates Sep 07, 08:05

they should show up in the 'derrivative' section of your port (same place call/puts are) RazorHawk Sep 07, 08:42

I have read somewhere that you can invest with REAL money on HSX? Ture or false and how? {nm} ohhenry Sep 03, 18:45

Cantor (HSXs owners) were in the process of getting a real money exchange up and running, then the studios shut it down with Congress' help {nm} ndmaster Sep 03, 19:50

is there any real sites that can let you invest into movies??? {nm} ohhenry Sep 03, 23:24

You can invest in publicly traded companies that make movies: Disney, News Corp (Fox), Lions Gate, Viacom (Paramount), Dreamworks, Time Warn Oleg Max Sep 04, 15:12

Of course, those are the companies that shot down the real money exchange idea DTravel Sep 04, 17:08

You're better off waiting for the facebook IPO {nm} thepizzaguy Sep 05, 01:05

i wish this was real money... i made 200k in like 3 days lol {nm} ohhenry Sep 05, 23:54

Why does the Trade box pop up on every screen some days and not others? BuenaOnda Sep 03, 13:54

HSX Profile Database down? {nm} biok5 Sep 03, 13:31

I get an error screen when I attempt to view my Pofile page {nm} biok5 Sep 03, 13:37

What the heck, everything I own just keeps tanking?! unaturalx Sep 03, 07:55

what do you buy? if you buy IPO's then they are very tricky. even I don't play them, however there are some that play them very well... Oleg Max Sep 03, 08:32

Down ...H$420,042.94 , but I play for the long term benefit....... unaturalx Sep 03, 09:47

That strategy has not worked for a while... Oleg Max Sep 03, 10:16

thanks for the advice..... commence the dumping of Stock! {nm} unaturalx Sep 03, 13:59

HOLD THE PRESSES....If the IPO's are overpriced, then Short them! Most go down, many to penny level. StarBond Fund 15 BUY BONDS Sep 05, 21:43

You might be right... However, {nm} Oleg Max Sep 06, 09:58

How do I host my own fund? {nm} pastermp Aug 26, 10:48

Instructions are listed on every stock page under the graph in the right column {nm} RazorHawk Aug 26, 11:09

I am new here and would like to know how to go about placing a stop-loss on my stocks....thanks. {nm} jgwolstrand Aug 25, 22:26

you can't. {nm} osmosis2003 Aug 25, 22:35

thanks {nm} jgwolstrand Aug 25, 22:55

The reason HSX does not allow stop loss orders is... Flash Aug 26, 09:36

If this game is giving you ulcers, then you need to find a less stressful game. thepizzaguy Aug 24, 22:57

Wouldn't that be Caribbean, i.e. capital B, no double r, but double bees? {nm} Facto Aug 27, 13:49

Oops, capital C, I mean :-P {nm} Facto Aug 27, 13:49

I guess it would be. This was a result of a porr education system and no speck checker {nm} thepizzaguy Aug 27, 14:00

Short Call/Short Put Questions: thepizzaguy Aug 23, 01:01

When a shorted PUT/CALL is H$2.0 und delists at H$0.01 you make profit. theycallmediddy Aug 23, 02:25

Reading the post makes me dizzy.....Let me TRY to simplify.... StarBond Fund 15 BUY BONDS Aug 23, 19:44

Thanks for the info. Sorry for the dizzying post. It looks like I gained on the call/put situation. K+ {nm} thepizzaguy Aug 23, 22:27

Pretty much tossing darts here... {nm} thepizzaguy Aug 23, 22:28

There is a little technique to it.... StarBond Fund 15 BUY BONDS Aug 24, 07:24

Correction ...2nd example was a strike of 15 {nm} StarBond Fund 15 BUY BONDS Aug 24, 07:25

I figure the "break even" point is making enough money to cover the ulcer meds. :-D {nm} DTravel Aug 24, 12:40

What happens with movies who delist at H$0 because they weren't released in theaters? petz Aug 31, 06:50

Yes {nm} DTravel Sep 01, 10:45

Hooray! Made my first $1 million in 23 days! thekidstays88 Aug 20, 10:16

keep going! {nm} tealfan Aug 20, 12:14

congratulations! {nm} RogerMore Aug 20, 14:29

*applauds* {nm} DTravel Aug 20, 16:36

Keep playing those weekend openers! You'll reach $5mil in no time. {nm} BelizeIt Aug 20, 22:17

Congrats - Don't forget Starbonds {nm} laujer Aug 22, 08:25

if a movie delists at 0 because of STV, it doesn't get counted in TAGs, right? {nm} tealfan Aug 18, 11:50

correct, starbonds will detach from movies that don't get released {nm} lapuckfan Aug 18, 12:40

Further, it is as if these movies did not exitst. STC or STV do not save a StarBond from Dead Delist..(Whereas a zero box office delist may {nm} StarBond Fund 15 BUY BONDS Aug 20, 07:57

what is market open and close times / weekends? neuregel Aug 17, 09:30

well, "reset" happens at midnight Pacific time...I guess you could think of that as closing and opening really fast :) {nm} tealfan Aug 17, 11:45

Other than 'reset' as mentioned above, HSX is open 24/7 for trading...even during reset time you can still buy / sell stocks... {nm} Flash Aug 18, 07:56

thanks {nm} neuregel Aug 20, 05:21

Starbonds question Disco92 Aug 16, 16:39

My opinion DTravel Aug 16, 18:34

she will probably adjust for SOCIL before WINSE {nm} lapuckfan Aug 16, 23:11

You are correct... RazorHawk Aug 16, 22:02

Will [WINSE] be included in the TAG for [RMARA] when she adjusts for [SOCIL]? Big_Shooter_28 Aug 17, 10:04

adjusts are done by delist date; SOCIL will be her next adjust and then WINSE (if it reports box office) {nm} RazorHawk Aug 17, 12:04

Thanks all (nm) Disco92 Aug 17, 10:47

Who said anything about losing money. thepizzaguy Aug 15, 01:07

this will never work, it is too easy to lose money...and someone already said this but I'll say it again... lapuckfan Aug 15, 08:07

Actually... Cantih Aug 15, 13:49

Good thinking. Yeah, in order to get to minus many millions, you have to have a crystal ball, almost. See which movies and bonds that are Facto Aug 15, 20:43

Funds are designed around something "unique" like Actors from TV --> going to Movies, or Actors over 40, etc. Flash Aug 15, 09:50

Hey Pizza, I want to tell you to keep it up! While everyone is shooting your ideas down, I appreciate you are trying to come up with ... Port Value League Admin Aug 15, 15:16

It would be a very difficult strategy. It IS possible to have a fund of all shorts. You would have to be careful about when they turn StarBond Fund 15 BUY BONDS Aug 15, 21:52

Thanks and sorries. I was just thinking about the game. The short idea went bonkers. I'm up 900,000 today. thepizzaguy Aug 15, 23:21

I think I mean, which is the next movie is so overpriced and not popular it can't do anything but crash thepizzaguy Aug 15, 23:28

From TV to the Big Screen (Movie Fund Idea) thepizzaguy Aug 12, 19:09

There already is a fund with that theme. SEETV. {nm} shadowking Aug 12, 19:47

Okay. I'll check it out. How about the Short Fund or The Mug Shot Fund thepizzaguy Aug 13, 18:27

"Mug Shot Fund" covered by The Overexposed Fund [BANAL] {nm} DTravel Aug 13, 19:40

Looks like the overexposed fund is also the short fund thepizzaguy Aug 13, 21:08

It's easy to lose money.. You just keep buying and selling the same stock to pay commissions.. You need a theme and focus for your fund ;-) {nm} karspov Aug 14, 11:35

he is a $5mill post; he needs to get to $100mill before putting so much thought into fund ideas... RazorHawk Aug 14, 16:11

Maybe I'm doing something wrong... ernbc Aug 12, 07:34

With a port your size, I would stick to Flash Aug 12, 08:05

i'm new but made most my $ with starbond adjusts so I'd consider that theycallmediddy Aug 12, 11:35

I reckon play the limited releases. Jane_Citizen Aug 12, 18:10

that should be 13 cents not percent! Jane_Citizen Aug 12, 18:11

its both actually... {nm} lapuckfan Aug 12, 18:13

Follow the ticker If a stock is up (green) buy. It a stock is down (red) short. thepizzaguy Aug 12, 19:00

I don't recommend day trading with a port your size. Starbonds and openers. {nm} Port Value League Admin Aug 12, 23:33

OMG! From my experience and results...day trading is the fastest way to make H$ from beginning to the end of your HSX career. It takes time Catzan Aug 15, 10:22

Day trading ernbc Aug 17, 05:51

Also...the ticker does not post 'every' trade...only that someone bought (or sold) the stock and if it's up or down, also Flash Aug 13, 08:29

Star Bonds are your best investment - See who is adjusting this week - Calculate their tags and anticipate next film in tag {nm} laujer Aug 14, 12:36

All of the top 1400 on the lifetime list are in the 99th percentile, and above 925M port size. Today's 'useless' information :-) {nm} Facto Aug 12, 07:28
