Two things Carlion Aug 20, 07:06

Carlion, I found my old "I was bored, so let me type how I got to 100m in 4 months or less" strategy doc. It looks pretty general and you Catzan Aug 19, 15:30

good stuff :) {nm} tealfan Aug 19, 16:22

Very good stuff. Much thanks for taking the time out to post it :-) (especially given the frustration that came from the auto-logout.) Ok so Carlion Aug 19, 18:37

Hmmm...could be you are too heavily invested in bonds? You have to have capital to buy anything that is hot. At 44m, you should still be Catzan Aug 20, 04:54

You make a lot of sense Carlion Aug 20, 06:31

Put it this way... Catzan Aug 20, 17:59

You've been extremely helpful Catzan. Thanks for all this time you've put into answering my questions :-) Carlion Aug 20, 18:16

Oh and...one more thing... Catzan Aug 20, 18:10

Unfortunately I'm in bed by 11 EST because I get up every day at 5. But no prob, I shall adapt my strategy accordingly Carlion Aug 20, 18:20

is it me, or has hsx gotten rid of putting up the amount of theatres a film will be showing in? nazwar Aug 19, 10:35

theater counts have been being posted on the announcements board thursday evenings {nm} islander Aug 19, 10:53

yep...it's true. i just never realy check there. thanks {nm} nazwar Aug 19, 11:47

That's also when Theater Counts gets added directly on each film page. {nm} Antibody Aug 19, 13:37

D'oh!! {nm} nazwar Aug 20, 03:32

Question for Catzan Carlion Aug 18, 06:59

Are you from Detroit? ;-) Catzan Aug 18, 12:09

gist?...lol...thanks {nm} tealfan Aug 18, 13:32

=) {nm} Catzan Aug 19, 09:32

Detroit? Carlion Aug 18, 18:27

OMG!!! This time out crap SUCKS and I forgot my fallback position of copying what I write in case I am STUPIDLY signed off. Sorry, Carlion Catzan Aug 19, 09:31

I don't get the point of the timed automatic log-out. Makes sense for something like e-mail or an e-store, so no one could sneak into your Carlion Aug 19, 09:55

Cars and lions.. Now it makes sense ;-) Carlion Aug 19, 09:57

Oh, I have an answer for that. If you go to page 5 of "Life" someone asked the story behind usernames. A few of us posted. Catzan Aug 19, 11:13

Why was I charged comission when its 10:54am ? Bk_Tan Aug 16, 10:58

...Depends on what time zone you are in...commission free time is 1PM EST Saturday - 1PM EST Sunday... {nm} Flash Aug 16, 11:18

Who is going to be getting tickets tommorrow for 'Avatar Day'? {nm} RazorHawk Aug 16, 10:51

going to the movie board...so embarrassed {nm} RazorHawk Aug 16, 10:52

Since HSX is now on PST is commission free at 1pm PST or 1pm EST as shown on help page? {nm} DamoVision Aug 15, 09:22

OK, I'm guessing it's still EST since I'm trading for free right now. {nm} DamoVision Aug 15, 10:55

This is right off HSX's Help Section: You will not be charged for commission on trades between Saturday, 1 p.m. EST, and Sunday, 1 p.m EST {nm} Flash Aug 15, 15:41

IMO the new Classic Cash blows big baby chunks. Bring back the old Cold Cash!!!!! {nm} Cindylee_2 Aug 13, 06:15

You may want to post your thoughts on the Feeback Board, the Players Board is mainly for newer players to ask ?'s... {nm} Flash Aug 13, 08:28

Flash - How come I never see you post on the Movies board? {nm} Carlion Aug 13, 10:03

Holy cow. Just watchlisted you. 1.5 billion? Now that's a lot of money. {nm} Carlion Aug 13, 10:06

Well...I'll tell you... Flash Aug 14, 08:08

Well you're a big help, really. Good to have you here :-) {nm} Carlion Aug 14, 10:08

Thanks, but if my LIMITED knowledge is any help, then I guess it's worth something. Flash Aug 14, 10:29

Right here :) I'm still trying to figure the flow of the 'new' hsx, so haven't really been paying much attention... MojaveMeg Aug 15, 23:27

Well..well... Flash Aug 16, 11:21

Missed Utah by this || much..... Mojave Aug 16, 15:56

Sounds like you covered some ground! Flash Aug 17, 07:56

Jesus. It's free money either way. WTF {nm} remrej Aug 13, 09:16

Each of the options should have some money for fun, and waiting the 5 seconds is what makes it a headache too. {nm} jgbaxter Aug 17, 09:17

When you buy starbonds SHORT, how do you sell them?? Bit confused. {nm} dc82 Aug 12, 15:31

to "sell" your short, you cover however many shares you want to get rid of. best to on commish free saturdays {nm} eyescovered Aug 12, 16:58

Buy...Sell = Short...Cover {nm} RazorHawk Aug 12, 21:59

terminology ndmaster Aug 12, 22:16

Thanks for that, totally get it now!! {nm} dc82 Aug 13, 02:39

Have a BW Short that is a loser for me. When I Cover or let it delist, do I owe money? {nm} DamoVision Aug 15, 09:27

If you have negative value on a short - yes, it'll be taken out of your cash. This is one way you can finish up with negative cash. MojaveMeg Aug 15, 23:30

Is it possible to show the overall ranking of the traders on the Watch List? It's easier to see how fast they're moving. {nm} BuenaOnda Aug 12, 13:25

Does lack of response mean NO? {nm} BuenaOnda Aug 15, 13:47

what is ARB? jedi71 Aug 11, 14:31

when a stock is underpriced and will definitely go up (example inside) tealfan Aug 11, 14:37

Thanks, tealfan, I was however looking for the abbreviation definition. just curious. {nm} jedi71 Aug 11, 15:03

arbitrage, an economic term islander Aug 11, 15:05

darn and I was so proud of my explanation :D {nm} tealfan Aug 11, 15:09

then i can finally saw that many of the blockbuster warrants are ARB. you learn something new every day... {nm} john Aug 12, 12:05

three aspects to starbonds ndmaster Aug 11, 09:27

In addition to what ndmaster said Carlion Aug 11, 10:15

questions about project genome... eyescovered Aug 11, 10:52

eap = estimated adjust price. droi = daily return on investment {nm} RogerMore Aug 11, 11:08

thanks! t think i'm actually starting to understand these starbonds... so correct me if i'm wrong... eyescovered Aug 11, 14:43

or... eyescovered Aug 11, 14:50

You are correct on both counts! She should be up H$12 and change from *Previous TAG* or a buck or two from here. {nm} shahnon Aug 11, 15:01

ok, thanks! it finally clicked! now i finally start playing starbonds. i know there's some big money in them... eyescovered Aug 11, 15:14

If you buy bonds with the best droi, you're port size will increase pretty quickly and very safely. Then you eventually have enough cash to Carlion Aug 11, 18:26

Try catching a fly with toothpicks, instead. {nm} shahnon Aug 12, 02:20

Daytrading is easy. {nm} Catzan Aug 12, 14:39

Easy? Please continue, Catzan, my new best friend {nm} Carlion Aug 12, 18:15

Buy or short the first moviestocks to move after reset, depending on which direction they move, and trade on news. That's about it. RogerMore Aug 12, 20:01

Meet RogerMore, my other new best friend. {nm} Carlion Aug 13, 03:21

Sure, Starbonds is where the H$ are. shahnon Aug 12, 02:30

I have made money on deriatives, how do you know when to sell them incase they drop in price? {nm} dc82 Aug 10, 03:59

THAT'S the big question around here..... Flash Aug 10, 08:00

Here's what I often do Carlion Aug 10, 10:28

I actually use options in a real market sense to hedge my holding although sneak Aug 10, 15:03

Thanks for the feedback..its all about risk!! {nm} dc82 Aug 10, 15:51

Yep...everyone has their own style with regards to risk...you have to decide what YOURS is...good luck! {nm} Flash Aug 11, 08:59

Flash makes a good point about finding your own style. IMO, that's where a lot of the fun comes in. {nm} Carlion Aug 12, 08:51

Seems underpriced , According to box office mojo , movie already made 69 million USD and was averaging > 1.5 million USD per day. hotadvice Aug 10, 01:21

sorry, this was in reference to [BWUGL] hotadvice Aug 10, 01:24

Trade box under My Portfolio still doesn't work right. {nm} BuenaOnda Aug 09, 12:52

Well...what's it doing or not doing? Send and email to Support (support@hsx.com) tell them your browser, Operating System, etc... Flash Aug 09, 15:40

Not sure where to post this, but is anyone interested in owning tapes of movies no longer avaiable, many classics and new classics? An Old Actor Aug 07, 11:17

Poll: You've just started your YTD (or STD) port, you have your H$2M and you're ready for a race to the top. What's the first thing you do Carlion Aug 06, 06:21

play the opening movies and get them right! {nm} ndmaster Aug 06, 07:29

There's not many ways to make $ faster Flash Aug 06, 07:32

before the end of commish free, look for starbond deals, funds that got the openers right, and arb/bra movies {nm} islander Aug 06, 07:33

Find out where to get the news!!!!!! kurtk Aug 06, 11:30

Daytrade news stocks. Play the calendar. Play the openers. Play the derivatives. Play Star Bonds on Mondays and then post adjust. Know the Catzan Aug 06, 14:43

I almost forgot...play the percentage gain not the $ amount. Once you are above 2%, it is gravy. And while 100% gain may be a sexy Catzan Aug 06, 15:00

Invest in low dollar value stocks that are bound to go up in value. Eg: 2.00 - 5.00 and let it grow. dc82 Aug 07, 03:17

Buy Robbie Coltrane. He's going to adjust over 100m on Tuesday and then sell when he adjusts. Mattrek Aug 07, 23:53

How do you know this?? {nm} dc82 Aug 08, 04:00

I know this, because good ol' Robbie will be adjusted for Harry Potter on Tuesday. {nm} Mattrek Aug 08, 16:47

Cheers for that, I am trying to decide what other starbonds to invest in, any ideas?? {nm} dc82 Aug 08, 23:04

Go to the bond charts at Project Genome (link inside) and you can see which ones have the best dRoi (daily return on investment) Carlion Aug 09, 03:22

Thanks for that!! {nm} dc82 Aug 09, 05:01

penny stocks used to bounce around like pogo sticks, art house limiteds etc. zeitgeist Aug 09, 21:11

Early on I did best by buying the max of all the derivatives and selling them before opening weekend or shorting the ones people sold {nm} john Aug 09, 23:10

How do we think JACKO will go?? Only a few months until its release!! {nm} dc82 Aug 06, 04:54

its going allright so far up over $H10 {nm} steve Aug 07, 04:23

Agreed, thanks for the reply. I think it will keep climbing. {nm} dc82 Aug 07, 16:59
