Playing & Trading Strategy

Not clear on how StarBonds work. Take CTHER for instance...

She's got two potentially good movies coming up.  SNTHM and PROME.  Is the TAG calculated after the 4 weeks?  So let's say the movies make a combined total of $150M.  According to the formulat the TAG should be $150/3=$50.  So does does she adjust to $50 after 4 weeks, or does she adjust to $50 plus her current $27?

If her current tag is $27 and her new projected tag is $50 then she adjusts her new tag at +$23. {nm} laujer May 24, 05:59

But bear in mind that a movie is only included in the adjust after 4 weekends (12 weekends for limited) SCIFund May 24, 06:39

So that mean CTHER will be worth $50 after the TAG adjust, if SWTHM makes $150M after 4 weeks? {nm} elchan May 24, 07:04

A bit less - SWHTM would have to make around 200 to adjust to around 50 {nm} SCIFund May 24, 07:12

For CTHER, moviestock count in TAG is 5. SWHTM replaces SEATL, and PROME replaces BRNPL ... fred_ott May 24, 07:10

Ok, I think I get it now. A moving average with a minimum window of 3 films, and a maximum of 5. A little complicated, but now I get it. {nm} elchan May 24, 07:37

It's a little hard to keep track though. Is there an archive of 4 week grosses somewhere? {nm} elchan May 24, 07:39

Kaigee's site (amongst others which are very useful; hsxdude's is another) IMHO is great to track this info ... fred_ott May 24, 07:48

No, you don't 100% get it alfpaulytd2012 May 24, 08:18

So that means if SWTHM and PROME does well, it could be pretty lucrative for the CTHER starbond. {nm} elchan May 24, 10:40

Profitable yeah, but shouldn't be your only consideration alfpaulytd2012 May 24, 10:56

...what he said....TAGS are actually updated every week that a movie is in release. So if FARRE were to be BUY StarBondFund May 24, 10:55
