Playing & Trading Strategy

Anyone want a $5.5 billion port? I'm done and will give it away free. Email allanolibra@gmail.com {nm} BuenaOnda Aug 08, 11:09

Just reset it back to $2M... {nm} Flash Aug 09, 09:48

Jeez, looks like he just deleted it. {nm} ndmaster Aug 10, 23:48

Will Disney and streaming releases that charge to watch have a box office value? WeAreTeamDemo Aug 06, 06:51

It will not be reliably reported. {nm} DTravel Aug 06, 09:38

As far as I know, and what has been common up to now; Box Office in terms of trading refers to the THEATERS in the US that a movie opens in. RBlaine Aug 07, 12:27

Streaming Wars: A Tale Of Creative Destruction (Seeking Alpha) stormgod Aug 05, 13:07

thanks for sharing this. This type of opinion is informed and well supported. {nm} Moviesnob Aug 05, 14:17

De nada {nm} stormgod Aug 05, 14:36

Interesting. TBH There's not much else they can do. {nm} Prophecy Aug 11, 13:44

Good News: AFRAM FUND (16) (The African-American Fund), Managed By RazorHawk, Is Available at IPO PRICE! {nm} kibitzer Aug 05, 09:20

I'm IN!!! :-) {nm} Flash Aug 05, 14:34

I should have realized I should have been playing the exact opposite of how I would normaly play. Down 10% on the year.......hate you Covid unaturalx Aug 04, 17:55

There is absolutely no reason in the world to own any MST long these days. ndmaster Aug 04, 20:50

Like most unqualified declarations about markets, that one seems unreliable {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Aug 04, 21:16

Just calling it as I see it. ndmaster Aug 04, 21:33

you know ..... now I'll have to look up what "unqualified declarations" means...... :) unaturalx Aug 05, 05:54

Which is why I'm not playing much. People are shorting because that seems to be the in thing, Not because their is an news on that stock {nm} JDolphin Aug 05, 00:12

And that's not a game I care to play. HSX is now about 80% playing the players. AND I HATE THAT PART OF THE GAME! I've thought about leaving JDolphin Aug 05, 00:25

If Mulan is a huge financial success on Disney+ then the Cinema's are that much closer to extinction unaturalx Aug 05, 05:51

If cinemas are going extinct then their is no point to the game. So unless they find another way to measure the game ends. So why play {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 00:03

You're wrong about it being playing the players. Instead, it's now about playing a drastically changed cinema market ... Patient Player Aug 05, 09:40

Newsflash: Theaters are closed and are coming back at 30 to 50% capacity if people even go back. You don't think it'll affect box office? {nm} Antibody Aug 05, 10:58

I'm not talking about movies being released in the next 6 months, but those in 2 or 3 yrs. If you think this is going to be permanent then JDolphin Aug 06, 00:25

They always go down when production and release date are pushed back by 6 months or more. Also, VOD has shorten the theatrical window. {nm} Antibody Aug 06, 08:41

Also, dozens of films have been sent and continue to be sent to VOD/Streaming = delist at H$0. {nm} Antibody Aug 05, 11:00

I'm not talking about movies with news .I have shorted those going STV {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 00:27

You make more money by shorting BEFORE the STV news announcement. {nm} Antibody Aug 06, 08:42

And how are you supposed to know that??? {nm} JDolphin Aug 08, 23:05

Its actually pretty easy. {nm} ndmaster Aug 09, 19:54

Anticipation and speculating is part of the game. As others have mentioned, shorting is the profitable play until box office returns.. {nm} Antibody Aug 10, 10:15

I keep trying to figure out what would be the biggest blockbuster possible with only 1/2 the seats available in all theaters. albrown Aug 05, 12:20

Why? ndmaster Aug 05, 12:36

I think its good to know the over and under on a bet. If I know the top then I have a better chance of guessing the bottom. is albrown Aug 05, 14:49

Wrong. There is news and its is all bad, so to speak. ndmaster Aug 05, 22:22

So if the game has become about shorting everything, what's the point in playing? {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 00:29

I think at some point big screen movies will come back, but for now adapt to new scenarios... Flash Aug 06, 16:43

I'm shorting because movies are delaying shooting, some going STV, and delayed releases...why not take advantage? {nm} Flash Aug 05, 14:37

Exactamundo! {nm} ndmaster Aug 05, 22:23

Because that's not what I consider fun. {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 00:36

Pre Covid that was a small part of the game, now it's the majority of the game. {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 00:39

Wrong. That was the way to play roughly 90% of MST out there before Covid. ndmaster Aug 06, 11:06

It's like when playing CRAPS at the Casino ..... i'll leave the table if someone is betting against the line. I get it JDolph .... I get it. {nm} unaturalx Aug 13, 14:13

I won't short movies when the real world result is people being unemployed. {nm} Silverblue76 Aug 18, 14:22

I have been doing a lot of shorting for the next month or so and when VOD releases are announced. RBlaine Aug 07, 13:15

Introducing New Release Date Call and Put Options Antibody Jul 27, 08:48

Since these involve a movie’s potential opening weekend, I assume Openerfund can invest in them? {nm} Opener Fund Jul 27, 14:17

Sure. {nm} Antibody Jul 27, 18:18

THAT'S why I'm long OPENR, & I'm glad that we're in 100% agreement! {nm} stormgod Aug 02, 19:29

Glad to hear, and thank you for your support! {nm} Opener Fund Aug 04, 16:00

Small error milligan Jul 29, 15:37

That's an example for all options. {nm} Antibody Jul 29, 16:13

Right. The summer heat must be getting to me. {nm} milligan Jul 29, 16:21

Why the different IPO prices? ndmaster Jul 30, 23:35

Because of how far the strike date is from the current release date. {nm} Antibody Jul 31, 10:25

Why not have the strike the current release date? ndmaster Jul 31, 23:14

Current as of IPO date {nm} ndmaster Jul 31, 23:18

Then the Call would be worthless. {nm} Antibody Aug 01, 07:47

Technically, they both would be worthless, just like the old Weekend Options, until it opens ndmaster Aug 01, 14:05

No, Put pays when a movie is delayed. Call is always worthless because a movie will never be moved up right now. {nm} Antibody Aug 01, 16:56

Also, you wouldn't be able to issue options for MULN which is TBD> {nm} Antibody Aug 01, 07:50

Don't look now, but the HSX market is crashing. ndmaster Jul 24, 22:16

what do you recommend? If HSX is to have a future, it will have to evolve but there are certain constraints. Moviesnob Jul 25, 12:38

HSX used to have TV and Music options. Look at them again? {nm} ndmaster Jul 25, 16:07

thanks {nm} Moviesnob Jul 25, 17:22

Delta House earned roughly H$20 million Thursday-Friday of this week. If your portfolio is crashing that could be operator error. SenJohnBlutarsky Jul 25, 13:57

Don't worry, I'm making bank, too. ndmaster Jul 25, 15:27

MILESTONE: SIXTEEN (16) BILLION.. 2 MILL to SIXTEEN (16) BILLION in 2,390 Days. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Jul 19, 09:24

I think we need a "thumbs up" emoji here at HSX. :-) {nm} Flash Jul 19, 10:42

Well, I'm glad Antibody is back, how about you? ndmaster Jul 01, 18:55

Of course, he is vital to HSX {nm} RBlaine Jul 01, 19:23

My comment was a little tongue in cheek, as my performance suffered when he was gone, and has rebounded since he returned {nm} ndmaster Jul 01, 20:51

I've noticed my port 'gains' are larger now than they were when he was gone...when chaos reined! :-) {nm} Flash Jul 02, 08:21

I must be Flash's mirror, because Anitbody's return sent me plummeting back down to March numbers {nm} monkeybeat Jul 02, 14:49

I'll take whatever I can get!!! :-) {nm} Flash Jul 03, 15:05

And you'll like it!!! {nm} DTravel Jul 27, 17:10

As much as pulling the plug has long been a possiblity, it hurts when your boss fires you. You do not want it to happen to you and StarBondFund Jul 03, 05:42

Absolutely! {nm} ndmaster Jul 03, 09:46

Here! Here! {nm} Flash Jul 05, 15:51

It also helps that I've figured out a breadth measure that is very informative. ndmaster Jul 16, 20:41

Will the -My Spy H$10 Put- play out as usual or Pennystocks2 Jun 24, 19:56

MILESTONE: TOP 17 ALL-TIME. 2 MILL to TOP 17 ALL-TIME in 2,364 Days. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Jun 23, 23:27

Kudos to ya...6+ years to get into the top 20 LTD is amazing! {nm} Flash Jun 24, 09:23

I know things are 'somewhat' back to normal here, but are starbonds being adjusted? Nothing on the Calendar. {nm} Flash Jun 22, 16:35

See my response to your post in Feedback. {nm} DTravel Jun 22, 19:47

thank you Flash {nm} lobogotti Jun 26, 12:27

I did my half. im going to donate more each month and treat it as a subscription for the site. {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Jul 01, 16:19

A question. RBlaine Jun 17, 14:04

I doubt it. Not sure what the change would accomplish. {nm} ndmaster Jun 17, 21:45

And when would the change be reset? {nm} Grunt Jun 18, 08:33

[AFRAM] 15 has passed $100 and is ready for delist. {nm} AFRAM The African-American Fund Jun 13, 13:38

congrats {nm} oneman Jun 13, 14:05

Shhhh, don't tell Anti. {nm} Grunt Jun 14, 19:24

Too late... {nm} cmbastos Jun 15, 08:56

Darn...I was hoping it would've got up to $120 before anyone noticed!! :-) {nm} Flash Jun 15, 09:15

There was a time when funds went a good bit higher than {nm} project Jun 17, 20:48

grrr .. typo ... sorry ... anyhow, funds used to go a good bit beyond $100... In fact $500 was the standard delist. ... project Jun 17, 20:52

Looking forward top AFRAM 16. Thanks {nm} Grunt Jun 18, 12:17

I sent an application for AFRAM 16 last Monday and am eagerly waiting for a response. {nm} AFRAM The African-American Fund Jun 20, 13:19

Thanks, a lot! {nm} tatoufan Jul 09, 16:09

This is Neil's Mom: Unfortunately, Neil passed away on Friday evening... (Please read) NeilSite_VanThomas Jun 09, 08:31

This is terrible news. SenJohnBlutarsky Jun 09, 09:06

So sorry to hear this!!...our deepest condolences to you and your family. {nm} Flash Jun 09, 09:12

Move ^^ this up one post. Sorry. {nm} Flash Jun 09, 09:14

welp if hes dead , no need for his account anymore. anti should delete it {nm} islndr Jun 09, 09:23

There was absolutely no need to say this. For shame! {nm} Grunt Jun 09, 10:22

So who is Neil Dusseault? Not Funny Jun 09, 15:44

Not trying to be a jerk, but I'm wondering the same {nm} monkeybeat Jun 09, 18:29

Next move? Seems obvious: https://memes.getyarn.io/yarn-clip/c78baf83-c9e3-4415-9170-979f66ee2455 SenJohnBlutarsky Jun 09, 18:40

My condolences to you and your family. The circumstances that led to this are horrible. Thank you for sharing. May he rest in peace. {nm} StarBondFund Jun 10, 06:25

Yeah, Antibody should probably delete this person's account now Prophecy Jun 10, 11:50

(Neil's Mother Here): Thank you all. I'll be shutting down his portfolio soon...but, does anyone want it, for legacy purposes? {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jun 11, 09:59

Why not give the account to Kyleigh? {nm} monkeybeat Jun 11, 10:54

thought Kyleigh's only like five and a half years old {nm} FrozenDude Jun 12, 08:54

With the rising cost of college, you're never too young to learn the skills of investing {nm} monkeybeat Jun 12, 11:49

What a douche. Last trade was Oct 4, 2020. {nm} ndmaster Oct 08, 17:22

Can't find an obiturary JoshuaL Jun 11, 22:14

The profile image is connected to Neil Dusseault, whose social media conflicts with much of what is in the original post {nm} monkeybeat Jun 12, 00:45

very fishy {nm} Neilthor Jun 13, 10:33

You aren't required to have an obituary. Not all newspapers have online obituary sites {nm} JDolphin Jun 15, 00:04

Do you reply to all your spam mail too? {nm} Prophecy Jun 16, 16:13

Unbelievable {nm} erhead56 Jun 16, 22:59

Some of ya’ll look gullible AF right now... {nm} CactusLand Jun 17, 06:35

At Delta House, we're just glad we get to compete economically with some of these folks after our seven years of college are completed {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jun 18, 15:25

Very Funny! I just got it...... {nm} Data Jun 25, 01:34

Now I'm wondering when "My Spy " will delist since it won't come out in theaters. {nm} RBlaine Jun 08, 06:46

Delists when it premieres on whichever platform. {nm} Antibody Jun 08, 07:22

So good to see you on here again. {nm} Initech Jun 08, 10:39

Welcome back...hopefully for a long time! :-) {nm} Flash Jun 08, 13:10

OK, cool. So Hamilton will probably delist on 7/3? BTW its so great to have you back !!! {nm} RBlaine Jun 08, 14:15

Yes, thanks for helping us keep this thing alive. {nm} berndog62 Jun 08, 15:26

It's too bad that Antibody fixed the computer so that we can still only buy 100K shares... Flash Jun 06, 08:19
