Playing & Trading Strategy

A possible explanation (from someone with a much smaller port than yours)

Posted by: baronblacksheep on Sep 05, 14:06 in response to DTXbro's post I see plenty of red in my watchlist rankings -- involving...

I admit that I haven't been playing this game seriously for that long, but it strikes me that the vast majority of players here ignore the inherent underlying worth/potential worth of moviestocks. In theory that should make profit easy, since you are essentially playing the market regardless of the underlying value of a security but I would say that HSX actually lives in it's own bubble divorced from reality.

To elaborate on that, I think far greater weight is given to some forms of information than really they should. Those players that are giving weight to the wrong things are also the sort of people that believe that digital sales and rentals will ever eclipse current physical sales by value in the home ent market. These same people also probably own an iPad. As a result when stocks under/over perform losses are made - get too caught up in the bubble and you're screwed.

BATM3, while costing people a lot of cash, probably also had a physcological impact on players. Looking at UK data it beat the Avengers despite no 3D charges and less than half a dozen IMAX screens in the country. Without Aurora it should have hit $200+ no problem. But it didn't, which now puts a previously cast iron system in doubt.

Maybe that's all BS and I will see that once I hit $1b+
