Do Starwars, Jurassic World and X-men movies really belong in the ANIMATION FUND portfolio ? {nm} JMT-NL Mar 06, 00:20

Completely CGI characters qualify a moviestock to be held by the fund. So that would account for SWAR2. RogerMore Mar 06, 06:02

X-Men: Supernova and Jurassic World do not qualify for this fund (Animation Fund) and it should not be holding them {nm} RazorHawk Mar 06, 08:14

There is a full CG scene of Quicksilver in X-Men Apocalypse. {nm} HSXiphos Mar 07, 06:16

*partially CG character like The Amazing Spider-Man do not qualify. Quicksilver is played by non-CG EPETE. {nm} Antibody Mar 07, 10:11

can you please correct this... the fund has made about 4 mill this week holding a stock that you have agreed does not qualify. {nm} RazorHawk Mar 07, 14:20

I thought Animation is Cartoon movies? {nm} mike255 Mar 07, 20:41

You could lose money. If you short a $20 movie call at $5 and it makes 27 then you lose 2 {nm} JDolphin Mar 02, 15:48

Ahhh!! Thanks for the replies gents! {nm} Nigel_Ray Mar 02, 16:15

And if it makes 37 in that scenario, then you lose $12...on a $5 investment shadowking Mar 02, 18:19

Strategy on Celebstock prredsox87 Feb 21, 13:26

Yes, They do not worh the same as moviestocks. They are the average of the last 5 movies box office. {nm} JDolphin Feb 21, 13:35

worth = work. Starbonds can make you lots of money. But if you don't know how they work, you can lose even more {nm} JDolphin Feb 21, 15:12

Yes, since their price typically represents the Trailing Average Gross, or TAG. ndmaster Feb 21, 15:08

Looking for league players to join "Toronto Traders" Mistaken_1 Feb 17, 12:44

HSX traders are treating me so unfairly - longing when I short and shorting when I long. Sad. {nm} BuenaOnda Feb 13, 17:46

Maybe do the opposite of your instinct!! If you want to short something - long it, and vice versa. :-) {nm} =Flash Feb 14, 08:51

ANSWER <INSIDE>. RotoHockey2013MainPort Feb 07, 16:20

he doesn't daytrade... he stays up all night every night and does massive reset trading (which he always fails to mention) {nm} RazorHawk Feb 05, 20:34

Sheer Delusional Nonsense. {nm} Captain Obvious Feb 05, 23:31

You are consistently the top 1 or 2 Trader by Volume at Reset. This is a fact. {nm} Antibody Feb 06, 11:05

Tuesday - RotoHockey 4,400,000 stocks traded reset to 4:15am PST (= 44 moviestocks traded at max holdings) RazorHawk Feb 07, 04:18

The only way for him to be right is if he stops reset trading. Irony. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 10:18

The 'Sheer Delusional Nonsense' was Aimed at the First Part - 'He Doesn't Day-Trade'. Don't 'Stay Up All Night' either. {nm} RotoHockey2013MainPort Feb 07, 15:28

You post like Trump more and more everyday {nm} RazorHawk Feb 07, 16:14

Yet somehow whenever you "advise" another player you never mention ALL the parts.... {nm} DTravel Feb 07, 22:28

You forgot #5. Shameless Constant Self-Promotion {nm} BSmurf Feb 08, 09:38

Wednesday - RotoHockey 3,800,000 stocks traded in first 45 minutes since reset (= 38 moviestocks traded at max holdings) RazorHawk Feb 08, 00:45

Unique? No. Proprietary, absolutely not. You didn't invent it. I was doing it long before you. I just don't trade as much as you... {nm} ndmaster Feb 05, 21:10

ROTO SHORT STRATEGY = Hold everything the right way = The aim of the game srrichardson Feb 06, 07:32

No one questioning that. Being "Unique Proprietary" is utter nonsense and neither this is a strategy. Just pure unskilled and untalented DiNar0 Feb 06, 12:25
