typically, they IPO the day before the first release of the next round...you can probably figure it out from there :) {nm} tealfan Jun 14, 14:04

Fund Week Summer 2010: Fund Updates And Changes RazorHawk Jun 14, 08:16

When covering a short, what do you pay commission on? The current price, or what? {nm} lukesed Jun 13, 20:19

After some experimentation, I think that you pay commission on [original price] + [difference between current and original]. Anyone confirm? {nm} lukesed Jun 13, 21:19

yes, basically the current value {nm} ndmaster Jun 13, 22:22

far more than the current value if you are reshorting a dead or dvd delist as the stock nears zero. {nm} lukesed Jun 13, 23:10

you are confusing current value with current price. It's 1% of the current value of your proposed trade {nm} osmosis2003 Jun 14, 01:03

oh I see now. {nm} lukesed Jun 14, 07:25

Box Office Returns [LAMSN] mrbennie Jun 10, 13:11

Because HSX gets its box office data from Exhibitor Relations (ERC), not BOM. {nm} Antibody Jun 10, 17:21

You ALWAYS have such "common sense" answers! :-) {nm} Flash Jun 10, 18:51

...... and the final result is that LASMSN will delist based upon the non-ERC box office, currently at .91 but BBRAT will be detached and StarBond Fund 15 BUY NOW Jun 12, 11:12

That's true, thanks. {nm} Antibody Jun 14, 15:05

Toy Story 3? Jacob Hill Jun 08, 16:46

This kind of question is generally known as a 'gut check' and is only allowed on the day a movie opens. I can offer the following... MojaveMeg Jun 08, 20:40

Is The Ticker crawl Just a Sampling?..I've watched [TRELF] go up $2.00 in less than 8 hours without a single trade indicated.(nm) GLAMMGUY Jun 08, 08:03

Exactly. The ticker is pretty much cosmetic and has little or no use as a trading tool. {nm} MojaveMeg Jun 08, 09:23

Thanks...I figured as much...be cool if it were an indicator of realtime trades! {nm} GLAMMGUY Jun 08, 10:43

It used to be a little more useful than it is now. Pre-orange (shudder) you could pull all trades made from it, sort of. KaiGee Jun 08, 12:07

Question about opening weekends and how they affect a stock to go up or down. Jacob Hill Jun 08, 06:54

You really need to read through the Help topics at the bottom of this page - this will give you a basic understanding of the game. MojaveMeg Jun 08, 09:21

Mondays And Decimals #8 RazorHawk Jun 07, 09:05

You left out TRUNW. Also if you are go to talk pennies then you need to include commission - because that's money you aren't going to make {nm} JDolphin Jun 07, 15:14

It may have already been asked but does anyone know if HSX will be doing derivatives for the World Cup? I'm certain they did them in '06 {nm} Phillips Jun 05, 08:19

I haven't heard....might be a good question for the feedback / Support Board?? {nm} Flash Jun 05, 14:23

What time do the boards reset {nm} swordfish1 Jun 01, 23:33

Which really sucks for those of us on the East Coast who enjoy reset trading... {nm} photochick814 Jul 27, 13:52

Ya my ports worth H$1.8B. But I'm down over 13mil over 15 days. Thought if I hang out here for a while I might learn something. {nm} Rigit Jun 01, 14:43

Yep, things are ugly right now. We just need one or two openers to do well and maybe things will turn around. MojaveMeg Jun 01, 16:21

I feel your pain. I am so sick of seeing red. If only it was orange... just kidding. I hate orange too. {nm} icecreamman Jun 01, 16:46

Same for me....I was a ways above $1.8B the same time, but now I'm hovering JUST above it...really some brutal losses! {nm} Flash Jun 02, 09:34

Everything is RED!!!...what happened to "Going Green"!!! {nm} GLAMMGUY Jun 04, 11:10

My port was 968 million on 5/14 - Now its 956 million going south. Thank goodness for Starbonds {nm} laujer Jun 11, 13:41

WTG! I've had a miserable run lately. Let's hope this summer season improves soon :/ {nm} MojaveMeg May 30, 16:33

And I guess Baddaddy can't claim 'oldest player' status any more. You've got him beat by 2 or 3 years :) MojaveMeg May 30, 16:36
