In general... How accurate is the Weekend Warrior with thier predictions? {nm} confusedman Feb 09, 22:00

As a very in-depth look at films, his column is Excellent, but the actual predictions have just been so-so. islander Feb 10, 00:21

With anyone who predicts box office, there are uncanny accuracies and bizarre misses. You could chart all of the predictions to come up with Catzan Feb 11, 02:57

Question: How do movie funds work and what determines the price specifically Studios so how do you know if it's a good buy or short? {nm} Smallville944 Feb 08, 23:26

Based on the price of the movie stocks the fund invests in. So it also depends on how good the manager is - if they pick the right position JDolphin Feb 09, 00:03

Movie funds are similar to.... Rocket123 Feb 09, 09:34

Security Has Gone Up, But I Cant Sell It, What Happens? {nm} MitchC Feb 07, 13:10

Which 'security' are you talking about? An opener (they can be sold AFTER adjusts happen) or some other stock?? {nm} Flash Feb 07, 13:39

Dear John MitchC Feb 08, 06:14

You can't sell while its halted, but it should have been made active yesterday around 11am PST {nm} lapuckfan Feb 08, 07:17

In the future....ALL openers cannot be bought or sold until they adjust on a 'normal' Sunday adjust. AFTER they adjust... Flash Feb 08, 07:42

Stupid Newbie Question Alert: Any Studio Funds I've Seen: None of them have any star bonds. confusedman Feb 06, 20:50

Exactly. Studio funds are limited to the movies released by a specific studio. Bonds are not studio specific. {nm} MojaveMeg Feb 06, 21:11

I would like to have a look at my entire Port. and trade history not just the last 30 days. How do I do this? {nm} jbinthehouse Feb 06, 13:28

With the 'old' version of HSX we could do this, but not any longer....it requires too much server space... it used to Flash Feb 06, 16:33

you can filter it by ticker symbol and that looks like it goes back about 9 months showing all trades for that ticker {nm} ndmaster Feb 06, 18:44

Is there any way to turn off the ticker scrolls?. It really slows down page loading {nm} bubbleboy Feb 06, 08:16

I don't know that you can turn them "off" but you can "hide" the ticker by clicking on the " < " on the left bottom by the ticker {nm} Flash Feb 06, 08:39

it can also be done by checking the box under account settings. Also, using ad block/element hiding with Firefox, one can block indiviidual islander Feb 06, 12:22
