Playing & Trading Strategy

DHD Early Friday Estimates: Basterds with 14M! Mattrek Aug 22, 00:36

Wrong board, my mistake. {nm} Mattrek Aug 22, 00:39

only 25K for referring a friend? jedi71 Aug 21, 13:14

also, jedi71 Aug 21, 13:17

just some 2 cents, but isnt the point of playing this game to make money off trades? even if they gave 100k, so what? its easy enough to islander Aug 21, 13:33

I think you're absolutely right, jedi71 Aug 21, 16:38

25k not worth my time, but the more active traders making H$ the more H$ to be made by all, sounds like same argument to reset trading damenchipguy Aug 21, 20:18

25k is low, but if they removed the limit on how many times you get it, not as bad. {nm} jgbaxter Aug 22, 05:09

25k for a referral isn't bad. Should get add 100K if referral signs with HSX {nm} laujer Aug 22, 09:33

Interesting idea is that you get 2% of their port for the first year. The better they do the better you do. {nm} jgbaxter Aug 25, 09:27

It used to be H$100K, years ago. JohnTEQP Aug 23, 18:09

Tell a Friend - invite them to play HSX for a H$25,000 referral bonus. Antibody Aug 21, 12:47

I know about the trader watchlist, how can I find out what others are holding; like league in old version? damenchipguy Aug 20, 15:36

I don't think you can look at ports...maybe you're thinking of funds...you can look at those {nm} tealfan Aug 20, 16:21

When I first started I was teaching people how to play and I could view thier ports my mistake, how does the top make so much H$? {nm} damenchipguy Aug 20, 20:15

We could never look at holdings in other player's portfolios. Only in funds. {nm} remrej Aug 21, 06:16

I think the "operative" word in your post was you could view ports by "mistake"... Flash Aug 21, 07:23

Not an HSX mistake, I would show people how the game was played and I could view their ports MY mistake thought for a sec I could see anyone damenchipguy Aug 21, 14:13

I understand where you're coming from... Flash Aug 22, 08:16

Thanks I really believe that was the coolest response, and nice to see a trader willing to share strategy! {nm} damenchipguy Aug 22, 12:27

Underpriced ?? Already made more than 100 million amanaggarwal Aug 19, 21:48

it's most likely because everyone already has their max shares {nm} tealfan Aug 19, 22:17

hmm in the case of blockbuster warrants, kensanity Sep 02, 15:41

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

XGM3D Adjust date dupa Aug 17, 09:40

oops - should have posted this on the starbonds board. My bad {nm} dupa Aug 17, 09:42

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
