try to read forecast of opening weekends from different sites. have faith in long-term investment and avoid day trading. {nm} amitkinger Jan 20, 21:08

Gipsy, you have to choose your style of trading. Are you a long termer or a day trader. Day trading is hard. You really should check into Catzan Jan 20, 23:16

I agree that day trading could be more profitable but I don't believe in spending 2-3 hours of my precious day playing HSX. Again it's my amitkinger Jan 21, 00:14

You can actually whittle the time spent to an hour to an hour and a half...which is still too much if there isn't a good reason to hang out Catzan Jan 21, 00:53

Still this isn't helpful, can't understand anything, when to buy/sell? how much to buy/sell? {nm} Gipsy Jan 20, 16:49

Buy when you think the price will go up. Sell when you think it will drop. RogerMore Jan 20, 19:37

besides what rogermore suggests, here is some extremely long, hopefully readable, advice.... islander Jan 20, 19:49

Is there a way to place a limit order to sell if a Moviestock falls to a certain price? {nm} bennyboy10 Jan 15, 08:23

no, limit orders are 'at a certain price or better', meaning if a stock is trading at 50 and you enter a limit at 45, you will sell it ndmaster Jan 15, 09:02

HSX does not allow traders to have 'stop loss' orders, you can only use limit orders to make profits - NOT prevent losses. {nm} Flash Jan 17, 17:39

if i short a nomoption or holiday warrent and it cashes out at zero, what will my gain be if any {nm} whoa_its_mike Jan 15, 02:38

It'll be just like if you were holding a movie short that got delisted at zero. You will profit. {nm} lolcat Jan 15, 07:21

You will gain the difference between what you paid and the delist price, in this case zero. However, your cash "gain" mrbinns Jan 15, 07:40
