Typically, the fall time is a bit slower market & movie wise...a little tougher to trade... Sep 14, 08:05
Does anyone ever redeem their H$? {nm} Sep 12, 20:03
I don't. Too expensive. {nm} Sep 13, 06:23
I tried once. My credit card company wouldn't accept the transfer. Their claim was ridiculous. Sep 13, 08:01
I stepped right into those zingers, has anybody ever got the coffee mug, t-shirt ect... {nm} Sep 13, 12:38
I got a nice t-shirt, and HSX included 3 cool pens :) {nm} Sep 13, 17:43
The pens do look cool. I'll give you that. Do they write well? {nm} Sep 13, 18:18
I'd say the pens are average, except for the logo, and Sep 13, 19:06
I was serious too. Sep 13, 18:58
the lazer point was cool... Sep 13, 20:55
not really Sep 13, 10:01
New idea? Make a mint ONLY with shorts Sep 11, 03:02
i have toyed with the idea of pitching a short only fund to Dmac {nm} Sep 11, 11:43
I think it's been pitched before and rejected. But that shouldn't stop you from pitching it yourself. {nm} Sep 11, 14:37
I'd like to see that. I'd like to see funds with creative trading strategies, rather than just theme funds. {nm} Sep 11, 18:03
Theme fund managers have their strategies - they're just less obvious and they depend on the manager's own trading style {nm} Sep 12, 05:42
Sure, everyone has their strategy. I'm just saying I'd like to see a fund where the theme "is" the strategy. Sep 12, 06:34
I thought about trying to short only overpriced stars, but it's too limited {nm} Sep 12, 14:44
I'm thinking more like fund speed profits than winning a YTD race {nm} Sep 11, 15:17
You can certainly make money by shorting stocks, but you didn't say 'what' you were shorting? Sep 11, 08:00
Oh, I agree about IPO's drifting down Sep 12, 10:26
I'd short anything, but preference is overpriced stars Sep 11, 15:16
In response to your IM, you're missing out then =) Sep 12, 06:39
I haven't played the IPOs Sep 12, 14:47
Why? Wouldnt you rather make my by shorting stuff AND money by longing stuff? Sep 11, 17:01
Sure, but that's not quite the same challenge... Sep 12, 03:13
But on the no pass, sometimes they throw a 12.......there is no hard and fast rule for ANYTHING here....just generalities.... Sep 12, 12:15
I’m trying to learn how to play the new openers... Sep 10, 23:39
i'm fairly new to this game as well but lemme give u my opinion and you can take it for what its worth. Sep 11, 00:49
It took me almost two and a half years to make the first 20 of my 50 million so I can use all the help I can get. Sep 11, 03:33
if 4 day is like labor day, then the multiplier is 2.2 dont ask me why {nm} Sep 11, 04:43
Here's why the numbers vary. Sep 11, 06:32
If you really believe in your position, you can buy/short funds that reflect your openers, too {nm} Sep 11, 03:04
Thebest advice I was given is, "I dont know $hit" look at gutchecks and follow HSXtips on twitter follow trend analysis Sep 11, 14:48
East coast trading killing me, no limit orders on sells... Sep 09, 11:35
there are limit orders Sep 09, 13:01
Stop loss shouldn't be possible. The order will execute right away because the current price is better than 82. {nm} Sep 09, 13:04
why shouldn't stop loss be possible? i've used it in the "real stock market" {nm} Sep 09, 16:06
You can only use limit orders to EARN profits, NOT to prevent you from losing money...the reason being Sep 10, 07:31
Well, usually there are good reasons they do or don't offer a feature...we just don't always know the reasons... {nm} Sep 10, 20:26
Get up earlier, if you want to trade early. Could it be said that West Coast has easier, quicker access to news? {nm} Sep 09, 13:44
$H1.5 million. WHere should i put it Sep 09, 08:50
I'd hold onto it as cash and keep it ready to play some news. {nm} Sep 09, 10:17
buy the IPO take profit tomarrow, then do it again {nm} Sep 09, 13:18
Buy max Star Bonds Fund that IPOs tomorrow. 200k investment for 800k turn around. DO IT! Sep 09, 15:29
Star Bonds Fund? WHere can i find that? also i notice a lot of starbonds readjusting. How do i decide how to "play" them? Sep 09, 18:22
Look at my post a few below. and BONDS IPOs tomorrow morning. {nm} Sep 09, 18:38
linked.. i think... Sep 09, 18:40
thanks my man. Looking forward to seeing that mutual fund. {nm} Sep 09, 19:55
any word on that BONDS fund you have? supposed to open today right? {nm} Sep 10, 04:56
It IPOd this morning. I bought max :-D {nm} Sep 10, 07:55
crap just noticed it now. hopefully works out well! at least its afordable :) {nm} Sep 10, 08:32
Just don't sell it. Hold it till it delists. {nm} Sep 10, 09:00
Throw it all on IPOs! {nm} Sep 14, 05:31
Finally...fiddy million! Sep 09, 04:18
Kudos to ya Sep 09, 07:56
Congrats! Sep 09, 09:24
My take on starbonds Sep 09, 17:30
I'm with you so far... Sep 09, 17:54
Did you check out my post below? :-( {nm} Sep 09, 18:33
If you have questions about bonds or TAGs or number crunching, throw it on the Stars board. {nm} Sep 09, 19:09
Oh! Oh! I can help with bonds! Sep 09, 17:37
Is there a way to buy max all funds at once, in most of OK we are stuck with dial-up no matter what TV ads may claim. Sep 08, 15:02
you can get high speed satellite internet from Hughes.net {nm} Sep 08, 15:13
No - there's no way of playing multiple stocks on the one trade. the potential for manipulation is the reason {nm} Sep 09, 05:24
Socio an honest question Sep 07, 18:05
Sure. I started in late July, and for the first 2 weeks, I knew nothing. Sep 07, 18:40
And if any vets have any thing to add or correct, please do so. I admit I am still a newb. {nm} Sep 07, 19:20
Daytrading frustrating? Where's the soap? Sep 07, 22:06
Only from what I've heard, I don't know, I play weekly for now. {nm} Sep 08, 03:44
Unconventional wisdom and economics is my expertise. I'm afraid numbers still get the best of me. {nm} Sep 08, 19:33
Since movie stocks that opened this weekend are no longer halted, why don't the prices move until tomorrow? Sep 07, 13:59
Prices on movies that open are fixed (frozen) until reset on the day of adjust... Sep 07, 14:40
That answer actually makes sense. Except I disagree about the level of fairnes invloved with the time zones. Sep 07, 15:10
Why is it you think only Americans play HSX? Forget EST and PST.....what about GMT? : P {nm} Sep 07, 15:17
Why is it YOU think, I'm thinking about anyone other than ME, at the EXCLUSION of others? Sep 07, 16:15
Well...reset is another thing...my point was Sep 08, 07:57
So, does HSX usually go down for an hour? {nm} Sep 07, 07:54
do big-time IPOs like GJOE2 usually drop day 2 as people look for profit or do they climb Sep 06, 21:51
From what I've seen, they usually climb the second day, too, if it's a big enough movie. Sep 07, 06:28
G.I. Joe 2 has already moved 11 points. That's +20 percent and change. Sep 07, 06:46
When a derivative cashes out, is the commission still charged? {nm} Sep 05, 19:06
Based on my calculations, yes. {nm} Sep 05, 19:22
no actually. when anything cashes out, it cashes out at whatever price it is suposed to and thats it {nm} Sep 05, 20:45
Weird. I thought that's how it worked, but ran some numbers at some point that indicated a commission. My bad. {nm} Sep 06, 04:43
Cash outs are never charged. {nm} Sep 06, 14:09
Good to know. {nm} Sep 06, 14:17
A question for all the movie industry experts, insiders, and know-it-alls... Sep 05, 05:09
Kwanzaa week is great!... Sep 05, 08:08
Christmas itself isn't big - often openers will adjust way down - but the week between Christmas and New Year is huge. {nm} Sep 07, 06:22
Isn't July 4th another big one? And what about Hanukkah! {nm} Sep 06, 07:10
Interesting read/chart. Until I got to the very last line. Sep 06, 12:43
IPO movement Sep 04, 22:44
ok, thanks, just wanted to make sure i'm not crazy and they didn't move when the reset occurred. {nm} Sep 04, 23:52
When I click "Post comment" in my League, nothing happens. Sep 04, 15:18
You should post this on the support board {nm} Sep 04, 18:47
Question about stock readjust in general Sep 03, 22:58
Good question. For moviestocks, there are 2 times it adjusts. After the opening weekend and on the delist. Sep 04, 04:39
You are ahead of the game I spent about 18 months trying to figure it out, asking questions here is the first step Sep 04, 13:22
You are ahead of the game I spent about 18 months trying to figure it out, asking questions here is the first step Sep 04, 13:22
^_- I figured it out in like 3 weeks. But I'm not playing moviestocks until I build my capital up. {nm} Sep 04, 13:44
Took me four months...but I am a slow learner. {nm} Sep 04, 14:36
if not movies, then are u just playing warram\nts and derivatives? Or starbonds? {nm} Sep 05, 01:28
A topic from the movie board that I thought needed to be grought over here. Sep 03, 18:52
DANG, brought over here sorry grammar {nm} Sep 03, 18:53
I agree... and I doubt it corrupts the HSX data {nm} Sep 05, 03:49
When I log in, I have to reorganize my stocks in alphabetical order. Why? {nm} Sep 02, 17:11
In fact every time I return to my portfolio page, the stocks are out of order. Why? {nm} Sep 02, 17:24
