Here's an easy way to play bonds. After you've grasped the fundamental ideas that alfpaul wrote about (which is important) you go to

KaiGee's page after he updates (usally Wednesday night, I believe)

click here

At top right you'll see the header "dROI", click on it. Then click on it again.

First click re-orders all the bonds with the worst dROI at the top, second click re-orders it with the best dROI at the top. This is a shopping list. You buy (or short) from the top of list, working your way down until you've run out of the money you set aside for playing bonds.

Every Tuesday some of the bonds on your list will adjust, and you cash out and repeat the cycle, unless you want to get fancy and start "playing the bounce". if you do, MrBinns hangs out mostly on the Stars board and he's a great tutor when it comes to this kind of thing.

So, CTHER will be competing against herself next week SNHTM vs PROME. Any particular trading strategy for situations like that? {nm} elchan Jun 03, 13:39

dude, you keep asking these sort of questions and the HSX gods wont be pleased.just go with your gut instinct {nm} swordfish1 Jun 03, 15:22

I don't believe in gods. ;-) {nm} elchan Jun 03, 19:24

I'd give you a legit answer but it would come off ****y/mean so I'd just suggest learning how bonds work alfpaulytd2012 Jun 03, 22:09

Well, thanks for the tid bit. Then from my calculations of the CTHER starbond, she should get adjusted to $39.23... elchan Jun 04, 08:35

ok, now question alfpaulytd2012 Jun 04, 09:08

Depends, in RL, 1.117% is good. Since I'm just starting, I don't know yet what's considered a good ROI, yet. elchan Jun 04, 09:27

Assuming you don't have enough to invest in everything, start with the highest ROI of bonds delisting soon and forlorne Jun 04, 09:59

Why are the bonds, never at what I calculate them to be? elchan Jun 04, 12:16

guess its not clear in the glossary....starbonds adjust the tuesday after the movie they are attached to delists alfpaulytd2012 Jun 04, 12:55

meant 3 weekends from now after the 4th weekend of wide release in that 1st sentence {nm} alfpaulytd2012 Jun 04, 12:56

Yes, I'm getting it. Using MPFEI is a better example. I calculated her to be at $55.87 with May 25th gross for DRKSH. elchan Jun 04, 14:50

would say you're beginning to grasp the basics alfpaulytd2012 Jun 04, 16:06

Here's an easy way to play bonds. After you've grasped the fundamental ideas that alfpaul wrote about (which is important) you go to Dave3626 Jun 04, 17:29

Dave, that's a great link. So they're estimating the adjust price of CTHER to be $65.14, post PROME. elchan Jun 04, 17:41

A note: Kaigee's starbond adjust calcs are done based off of the market price at the last website update (noted on his homepage). Since he Paul2k Jun 04, 18:08

I don't see a place where the custom delist price can be added. That would be very useful. {nm} elchan Jun 04, 18:32

On Kaigee's page for the movie stock, right at the top, you can enter in your own values, overriding his... Jane_Citizen Jun 04, 21:38
