Shares offered at IPO price thomasisnewhere Jun 23, 17:30

Yes, it only counts shares held long. Why? Because only shares held long are counted. :) {nm} DTravel Jun 24, 10:15

Shares Offered for Purchase at the IPO Price. SHORT is Short Selling - not Purchasing. Investopedia Link. RotoHockey2013MainPort Jun 24, 13:56

Thats very informative thank you. Makes sense now, i still have a lot to learn here. :-) {nm} thomasisnewhere Jun 24, 16:53

Short Selling makes it possible to Sell what one does not Own - for Purchase at a later date. {nm} RotoHockey2013MainPort Jun 24, 13:59

Newbie! AntJac87 Jun 21, 09:39

as for TV stocks, they typically are issued in September/Oct of each year (for the fall season about to start), so there are none currently {nm} daveart Jun 21, 11:37

Strategy depends on how much time you are will to spend on HSX. 1 hr a week, 1 hr a day, 5 hrs a day? {nm} JDolphin Jun 21, 13:23

Trade mostly StarBonds until you get to 500 million {nm} Chimpmuck Jun 21, 18:30

Many thanks for the tips guys. I'll aim to spend roughly an hour a day on HSX. Thanks for the tip regarding star bonds. {nm} AntJac87 Jun 22, 03:41

That's about how much time I spend here. Inside is a link to a post I made a while back with advice for casual players based on my time. DTravel Jun 22, 10:27

And you still need to clean your room! {nm} DTravel Jun 24, 13:14

Huh? {nm} Flash Jun 23, 15:46

Forgot to ask! Whats the general rule for buying and selling? Sell if it dips 3-5%? Buy more if it increases? {nm} AntJac87 Jun 22, 04:11

Not many hard and fast rules, but some recommendations srrichardson Jun 23, 07:23

How to Improve Your Rank and Percentile NeilSite Jun 04, 07:18

interesting strategy.. also helpfull for beginners of the game. May i add two other suggestions ? jmt-nl Jun 04, 23:39

Thanks for the Insight! Will try... NeilSite Jun 05, 07:34

And, use Port Monkey! edzep Jun 07, 05:14

I followed your link and wow... What an incredible not userfriendly description of all kinds of possiblities popped {nm} JMT-NL Jun 08, 14:28

Popped up... No way i'm thinking of using this {nm} JMT-NL Jun 08, 14:29

your loss. :( {nm} RazorHawk Jun 09, 03:23

Did you get to the screen shot at the bottom? It's true that the format of the script archive site is rather limited. edzep Jun 09, 11:08

Oops, meant to add the old homepage link... edzep Jun 09, 11:09

For example, see MrPenguin's reference, 2 threads up. (Thanks, MrPenguin) {nm} edzep Jun 09, 14:10

Ok... Maybe i was being crouchy again. I'll put some time in it and try it, since all around here are positive :-) {nm} JMT-NL Jun 10, 00:01

Question about Memorial Day wknd derivatives delist Wolfnave Jun 02, 06:52

I assumed that Fri-Mon includes Thursday since that is included Friday totals and ignores Wednesday receipts {nm} Wellespring Jun 02, 07:39

Baywatch did $1.25mil on Wednesday Wolfnave Jun 02, 09:30

That looks right. {BMO link inside} Wellespring Jun 02, 10:09

I think there was an error in the Baywt.OW delist. RazorHawk also mentions this in the Feedback board. But it probably won't be fixed. {nm} JDolphin Jun 02, 10:22

doing more research... it looks like the movie reported Thursday separate so it was not added to the Fri-Mon total RazorHawk Jun 02, 12:15

May 25th is listed as the release date. {nm} Wellespring Jun 02, 12:18

Forgot about it opening on Thurs - so the Fri - Mon was 23.11 as delisted. {nm} JDolphin Jun 02, 14:12

$27,713,457 (Total B.O. on Monday) - $4,606,514 (Thursday) = $23,106,943 Wellespring Jun 02, 12:05

You're not missing anything. The derivative was labeled as Fri- Mon (NOT Thur to Mon) so 23.11 is indeed the correct delist amount {nm} JDolphin Jun 02, 14:15

My Thanks To RogerMore For Guiding the Once Foundering ASIAN FUND To a Successful Delist @ $100.85. {nm} kibitzer Jun 02, 06:00

congrats {nm} oneman Jun 02, 08:00

Congrats!! {nm} thomasisnewhere Jun 02, 10:04

Nicely Done, Bond. {nm} RotoHockey2013MainPort Jun 02, 16:30

Congrats! All downhill from here. {nm} Wellespring Jun 01, 11:14

Nicely Done. {nm} RotoHockey2013MainPort Jun 01, 17:22

didn't last long, WONDR hurt me. still long, trying to hold it out. {nm} johnyg Jun 07, 08:09
