With the most recent dead delist on Friday, the number of active MSO's will be 973 at Noon HDT today, a low amount. {nm} Buy BONDS 31 Aug 31, 08:50

Noon High Definition TV? {nm} DTravel Sep 01, 14:16

Hollywood Daylight Time {nm} Buy BONDS 31 Sep 03, 09:08

Hollywood has a separate time zone from the rest of California?! :P {nm} DTravel Sep 03, 12:43

Bond Port Update NVT_vs_bonds Aug 28, 20:53

NVT is at 10M. He may hit 20M by year's end. {nm} tatoufan Aug 29, 13:39

Who is NVT? {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Aug 29, 15:16

So, you're comedy act is developing nicely. {nm} NVT_vs_bonds Aug 29, 19:30

About as quickly as his port. {nm} tatoufan Aug 30, 10:49

You will find as you approach 100 M that the available adjusting bonds have small dROI , It's just the nature of the beast... Buy BONDS 31 Aug 31, 08:44

I hit 6 billion today! {nm} tatoufan Aug 27, 15:23

Shirley you meant "That's a BBBBBBingo!" {nm} DTravel Aug 27, 19:19

"It's just 'Bingo'" {nm} ndmaster Aug 27, 20:14

And, don't call me Shirley! {nm} ndmaster Aug 28, 10:41

Congrats {nm} cj19 Aug 27, 19:13

Super! {nm} islndr Aug 28, 05:33

Well Done! {nm} kibitzer Aug 28, 08:27

do accounts ever get deleted due to inactivity? occasionally, i'll check the rankings to see who's ahead of me, and ... pacrat Aug 21, 12:51

someone correct me, but I think there was a cleanup several years ago...and hasn't happened since {nm} tealfan Aug 21, 15:08

I'm not sure. I have a buddy linked to my watchlist. account is still there and he hasn't played in 11yrs I think. {nm} SEETVFund Aug 24, 09:29

Biggest Drop In One Day? MitchC Aug 19, 16:50

I lost over $5M one day back when "weekend adjusts" were around...otherwise I'd be past DTravel by now! lol. {nm} Flash Aug 20, 08:02

Same, almost 5m back when I made the wrong call on an opening. Losing 2m in a single day happens a few times a year for me. {nm} MattW Aug 20, 12:37

So now today it went up over a million. I guess I have to look at it as small potatoes for a "Billionaire." lol. It may flucuate {nm} MitchC Aug 20, 16:26

You have to! You'll drive yourself nuts looking at every little squiggle. ndmaster Aug 20, 17:03

Understood, ndmaster {nm} MitchC Aug 20, 18:34

Can you elaborate? What you have typed does not make sense. {nm} ndmaster Aug 15, 18:36

Send an email to Antibody about becoming a fund manager here...... SEETVFund Aug 16, 15:36

Sorta sounds the same as the Opening Weekend Fund. {nm} GruntNoNeck Aug 20, 12:42

*Where* is moviesnob? He (she?) has only ONE security in his (her) port and is still ahead of me at #296 LTD...retire already!! Flash Aug 13, 16:57

Didn't you see his response when I told him to get out of my way? {nm} DTravel Aug 14, 06:30

What? Silence? :-) {nm} Flash Aug 14, 08:15

:P No, he said wasn't actively playing anymore, hasn't been for some time. {nm} DTravel Aug 14, 15:26

Ahhh...well at 'this' level...that's about the only way I'll move up...if someone in front has quit, not trading, etc.! haha! {nm} Flash Aug 14, 15:32

He says to the guy who passed him... how long ago was that again? :D {nm} DTravel Aug 14, 19:31

True story, i shorted THE HUNT out of primal reflex. First trade I had made in year and it was done on autopilot. Moviesnob Aug 14, 20:03

An obscure movie quote comes to mind.... DTravel Aug 15, 15:51

mmm...about 2 days ago. :-) {nm} Flash Aug 15, 07:56

I'm beginning to think of Tuesdays now as (Starbond) "adjust" days...since we no longer have openers adjust... Flash Aug 13, 16:36

Half A Billion Cash, And What To Do With It MitchC Aug 11, 14:23

Starbonds, Funds, Derivatives {nm} DTravel Aug 11, 20:56

The fastest way to spend your cash is go find the sure things that will do well (which I guess is comic book movies these days) and just buy ndmaster Aug 11, 22:15

As your port grows, it will be harder and harder to spend all your cash... Flash Aug 12, 08:22

Spend your cash. Take a chance. Sure you will lose on some investments, but in this game, you will profit more than you lose. GruntNoNeck Aug 12, 09:11

Was July pretty awful for anyone else? MattW Aug 07, 22:39

62 for me...dunno about past years {nm} tealfan Aug 08, 07:58

+181 in July, roughly the same as last year {nm} Nobody Aug 08, 09:14

63.4 this year. My tracking doesn't go back any farther. {nm} GruntNoNeck Aug 08, 10:36

Anyone Have a Pet Strategy On Bonds? Coachv Aug 07, 14:06

The next adjust price for StarBonds can be accurately predicted (inside) Nobody Aug 07, 14:38

That's only true when the next movie has been released. Beyond that, the date, the next movie and its box office are all subject to change. {nm} Antibody Aug 08, 11:07

That's why I used words like "predict" and "estimate". Boy you really have a problem with me {nm} Nobody Aug 09, 01:34

You used the word "accurately". {nm} Antibody Aug 09, 08:51

Only strategy is to figure out how much dROI you want to earn... ndmaster Aug 07, 16:27

Visit my HSX helper site. KaiGee Aug 07, 19:06

+1 {nm} ndmaster Aug 07, 19:54

+17,836 {nm} MattW Aug 07, 22:26

That is a suspiciously specific number.... {nm} DTravel Aug 08, 11:07

The number of times I've visited kaigee so far :o {nm} MattW Aug 08, 18:25

O_o Obsessive-Compulsive much? DTravel Aug 08, 19:40

on this side of the spectrum you have MattW <-------------------------------------------------> on this side of the spectrum you have laujer {nm} RazorHawk Aug 09, 18:27

Since spectrums like that are usually circular, that must mean MattW and laujer are at least brothers, if not Siamese. {nm} DTravel Aug 09, 21:46

It's a lot of work, keeping this updated...we appreciate your efforts, too! {nm} Flash Aug 08, 07:42

Try to maintain a data base of Star Bonds and their tags. If you are interested my email is available {nm} laujer Aug 08, 08:54

WHy? Why do all that work that has already been automated and done for you? ndmaster Aug 08, 16:17

... because bond sites have poofed in the past when gatekeepers no longer have the time ... BC Aug 09, 19:14

You know the shortcut, right? {nm} ndmaster Aug 10, 13:28

Why is the Disney Studios Fund always so low? ZeroGrowth Aug 05, 07:57

it depends on the manager. sometimes they turn out to be bad at it/or cant put in the needed time. current manager hasnt traded in a week+ {nm} islndr Aug 05, 08:12

And look at the trades he has made. RogerMore Aug 05, 08:33

Also, it kinda stinks when the manager has never posted to the forums before. Not that it’s required, just nicer to know the managers. {nm} islndr Aug 05, 10:04

Yeah! Hi guys and gals! {nm} SEETVFund Aug 05, 11:09

We seeeee you! {nm} GruntNoNeck Aug 05, 11:58

Last years Disney fund was a whiz bang! {nm} GruntNoNeck Aug 05, 09:56

Ticker spr701 Aug 03, 00:54

delisting fund milomak Aug 02, 15:28

A fund cashes out after reaching $100. Investors get the number of shares they own x $100. Eg 10000 x 100 = $1,000,000. tatoufan Aug 02, 15:46

*Studio Funds are an exception to the $100 delist rule. Studio Funds cash out at market price each year in September. {nm} tatoufan Aug 02, 16:00

Another opportunity to boast! What is your current percentage (%) gain on the MovieStocks you own? 45.95% for me. DTravel Aug 01, 10:25

0.54% {nm} ndmaster Aug 01, 11:29

I win. {nm} ndmaster Aug 02, 09:16

For having the lowest? {nm} DTravel Aug 02, 10:47

Nothing long term! Traders like me and islndr are just lazy. {nm} RogerMore Aug 02, 12:47

Of course! {nm} ndmaster Aug 02, 15:13

78.62% {nm} islndr Aug 01, 11:52

54.55% {nm} RogerMore Aug 01, 15:08

44.10% {nm} Flash Aug 01, 16:31

No wonder I'm so far behind RogerMore, islndr and grory! :-) {nm} Flash Aug 01, 16:32

you are way ahead of me in total. my % is high because im barely invested :) islndr Aug 02, 05:14

Almost 58%. However, I'm probably one of the top players in this game at over 1 billion. I've been playing for 10 years and I'm in the 98% {nm} MitchC Aug 10, 13:47

37.33% Been at it 16(!!) years off and on {nm} Jacito Aug 30, 09:31

Wow...you made it back...what happened in Holland?? {nm} Flash Jul 31, 15:12

hsx is banned there. it has to do with the privacylaws on internet. hsx says they are working on it (longer than a year now) {nm} JMT-NL Jul 31, 15:16

Welcome back! {nm} tatoufan Jul 31, 14:15

for some reason, I can't see the whole Summer Pick 7 page on my phone...I have an Android phone with Chrome browser...anyone else?... tealfan Jul 31, 09:07

iphone/safari, same, chart cuts off around pick 4.cant scroll it over. always been like that for me, just never said anything. {nm} islndr Jul 31, 09:27

yean I never said anything either since I could always look on my laptop {nm} tealfan Jul 31, 12:17

I'll have to look into that {nm} KaiGee Jul 31, 18:53

if you have time, can you also look into the site being blocked at my work because it thinks it's a gaming site? =P {nm} tealfan Aug 01, 12:29

Not sure, must have gotten flagged by some site filter. Like that time I was blocked in all of Toronto (or some Canadian city). {nm} KaiGee Aug 01, 19:20

no worries...just means I have to work instead...lol {nm} tealfan Aug 02, 12:24
