Feb was great but march not so much, it's been a rough month for me too. MattW Mar 31, 19:48

hey, could you beat the Knights for us tomorrow?...thanks {nm} tealfan Mar 29, 12:10

I {nm} Moviesnob Mar 29, 09:23

I'm not holding my breath. Caps D is pretty awful this year. Of course, when my expectations are zero, they'll finally win the thing {nm} Moviesnob Mar 29, 09:24

in that case...Caps and Sharks suck! {nm} tealfan Mar 29, 12:10

Thanks Kaigee. This is great. Just one issue i noticed with the IPO Start Date Year dropdown list. thomasisnewhere Mar 20, 14:17

I noticed that year select issue... KaiGee Mar 20, 20:11

it *must* be a saturday w/ a high-value IPO today ... my port is not so much bleeding as it is ... pacrat Mar 17, 12:54

Yep..people selling off to buy that hugely priced IPO. {nm} Flash Mar 17, 15:22

Huh, just another day for me, up 2% {nm} ndmaster Mar 17, 21:00

i got my throat slit...almost 4 million down...i hate big money IPO days {nm} horrorfanatic Mar 18, 04:53

lost 1.8M, but gained 3 spots! {nm} Wrath_crfd Mar 18, 06:44

My personal port and KIDS both hit Classic Cash today. I guess I better buy a lottery ticket today :) {nm} Initech Mar 16, 07:49

Anyone want to give their insight why today's Netflix acquisition plunged instantly to pennies but previous grabs are still far above $0? tomcat90 Mar 12, 18:49

To what film are you referring? ndmaster Mar 12, 22:35

GLPPS went immediately from $5.50 to $0.04, but EXTNC (currently $6.88) and WFANF ($5.81) have not. What's the difference? {nm} tomcat90 Mar 13, 08:02

Sorry, typo.....WFANG (not WFANF) {nm} tomcat90 Mar 13, 08:30

EXTNC and WFANG were alot higher priced and\ have dropped a lot more. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 09:36

EXTNC for sure, WFANG less so, but still, why have any value at all if all 3 films "will be on Netflix later this year" and GLPPS was tomcat90 Mar 13, 09:51

EXTNC and WFANG dropped H$5 on the first day of the news too. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 10:44

You are not helping with your answers. ndmaster Mar 13, 11:09

There's nothing "instantenous" about GLPPS. tomcat90's question is always something about not moving fast enough to his liking. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 11:12

First of all, what do you mean? GLPPS went from $5.5 to $.04 in HOURS and it won't be on Netflix until "later this year", the exact same as tomcat90 Mar 13, 11:39

If GLPPS was priced at H$30, then it would also drop like EXTNC. GLPPS moved in the exact same manner as EXTNC and WFANG after one day. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 11:52

The point is that the price is driven by user activity not news srrichardson Mar 14, 04:11

Your answer is wrong. There are just an finite number of traders that log in each day/ {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 11:13

Wrong? Wow. So, when a high priced MST gets bought out by any STV outfit, we should expect a 5 point drop and that's it? {nm} ndmaster Mar 13, 19:59

Yes, in ONE DAY as I've repeated. EXTNC has since dropped another H$15+. WFANG has dropped another H$5+. Antibody Mar 14, 09:45

I would also like to know the answer to this. {nm} MrSmee Mar 12, 23:45

Todays gain: H$+2,906,040.62 (40.54%) I'm curious what everyone else's was. klarobass Mar 12, 16:41

H$+4,661,154.64 (0.11%) {nm} DTravel Mar 12, 16:58

H$4,430,970.51 (2.11%) (Y) {nm} fwerner Mar 12, 22:05

today was the best day on the exchange of 2018 so far Wrath_crfd Mar 13, 04:55

What about 2/20 - i made almost twice as much then (Black Panther derivatives cash out) {nm} JDolphin Mar 13, 18:40

I'll check after work {nm} Wrath_crfd Mar 13, 19:19

20Feb was indeed your best day so far this year, it is fourth for the whole site Wrath_crfd Mar 14, 05:38

How can you identify individual traders' most profitable days? Thank you {nm} DTXbro Mar 14, 14:06

My gain today: H$+1,892,097.74 (18.82%) another good day for trading because of BPNTH starbonds adjusts {nm} klarobass Mar 13, 11:05

$2.2M so far...not sure how the day will end up, however. {nm} Flash Mar 13, 11:13

As of mid-day on Tuesday I'm up about $H6.5M DTravel Mar 13, 12:13

Gain of $ 6,624,832.44 due to Star Bond Adjusts mainly for BPNTH {nm} laujer Mar 13, 12:40

Milestone: H$10 million in 7 weeks {nm} klarobass Mar 12, 16:35

I have all the top price movers held long and the bottom four shorted so why am I more than 3 mil down today? {nm} BuenaOnda Mar 11, 14:45

Probably because reset didn't happen ndmaster Mar 12, 07:06

You probably had no star bonds in this porfolio. {nm} laujer Mar 13, 12:44

Anyone else dumping [AWIT] before it gets hammered at the B.O. this weekend? Reviews are bad, story is 50+ years old, and Oprah is in it. {nm} marxbro Mar 08, 02:05

Which part of Oprah's record -- multifaceted success, massive popularity, Oscar nomination -- makes her the albatross? {nm} DTXbro Mar 08, 06:44

Um, maybe the not a very good actress? {nm} ndmaster Mar 08, 22:25

*actress part? {nm} ndmaster Mar 08, 22:26

Hope you didn't short Weight Watchers Stock as well! {nm} laujer Mar 13, 13:29

relatedly to the Kaigee stuff, does anyone usethe howprofitable website? I've looked at it and can't make any sense of it Jizanthapus Mar 06, 21:35

Sadly it hasn't been updated in almost a year. There is a post on their forum page {nm} JDolphin Mar 07, 13:23

that website is completely automated and was made by a player who went inactive several years ago (it is not actively monitored) {nm} RazorHawk Mar 07, 15:28

Only the adjust dates are automated for however the bonds looked when it was last updated. Prices,adjust amt, attachment changes etc are not {nm} JDolphin Mar 07, 17:39

A better way to say this - the site itself is automated, but it hasn't pulled new data from HSX in almost a year so pretty useless (sadly) {nm} JDolphin Mar 07, 20:11

Take a minute or two to learn the Kaigee site. It is worth your while. {nm} baconmaker Mar 11, 13:40

Use Starbonds by adjust date to determine when to imvest cover amd or sell starbonds. {nm} laujer Mar 13, 12:58

I keep getting an error when trying to load Kaigee pages. I was trying to figure out which starbonds to invest in next. {nm} klarobass Mar 06, 10:25

On Kaigee.com, I was able to open all of the individual Starbond pages needed to do the adjust transactions. Thanks, Kaigee! I do note that edzep -- Port Monkey! Mar 06, 13:34

Ya I'm having the same issue {nm} Randy Mar 06, 20:26

Can you provide more info about the URL of the page that is giving the error and what the error is? KaiGee Mar 06, 21:01

Error message inside JDolphin Mar 06, 21:05

I get this on every page I've tried {nm} JDolphin Mar 06, 21:07

Had the same problem yesterday but now it looks like it's fixed. {nm} DanU Mar 07, 09:07

Fixed, now. It was that PM.cvs file. I think it may have existed, but, the content was poorly formed, so that the date at the top was edzep -- Port Monkey! Mar 07, 11:13
