Posted by: Filmstardust on Aug 03, 09:13 in response to Willroast's post Excellent job hitting $10M in a month bud! Unless you had...

I didn't have any stock experience in my life, 35 days ago i didn't know what shorting was...LOL
But i've been a box office geek for over 20 years now, so that help me a lot for starting and knowing where and when apply the information i was gathering.
The first 2 weeks i was a mess,  growing but very slowly, until after reading and reading from guys like you, who knows very well how this game works, i made myself a plan, and i could say that in 15 days i jump from $3M to $9.6M... so my plan is working! :)
This game is awesome, and i can't believe how long it took me to found out about this site... 
Anyway, thanks again and of course, i will follow your advice :)

Someone please comment on stocks, this is Friday. If this was xmas my little port is a horrow story. GUT CK. JPS13 Aug 02, 12:36

I second this. For the first time in a while, I went to bed and woke up in the red. I could really use a OW tutorial if anybody's offering? {nm} Willroast Aug 02, 13:59

Buy low, sell high, short high, cover low. {nm} DTravel Aug 02, 13:59

Nice.While I love the Cliff's Notes, I think I need a bit more. So far, my only experience in OW is a massive loss in WOLV2. Now I'm scerred {nm} Willroast Aug 02, 14:02

Most people (including me) lost money on that one. Too much group-think by predictors with no one thinking under 60 was even possible. RogerMore Aug 02, 14:24

Thanks for the sage advice RogerMore. I will take it to heart when I get the courage to step back into the OW guantlet! {nm} Willroast Aug 02, 15:11

Also, I forgot to mention in my post below, but your HSX blog has been invaluable to me when it comes to understanding the game. Thank you. {nm} Willroast Aug 02, 15:38

Just guessing that the reference is not to Rick Horrow. ROTO Thoughts inside. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Aug 02, 14:15

Starting out and buying opening soon worked for a while, but my 1mil win is now bleeding fast. ;more {nm} JPS13 Aug 02, 14:59

Great advice Roto. I've employed much of the same strat on my fledgling YTD (lots of my adivice, cont) Willroast Aug 02, 15:09

Several players offer your in depth synopsis (Roto) and Thank You all! Printed for study. Thks JPS13 Aug 02, 15:21

Thanks to Roto and Willroast, excellent tips! Question, i'm just a month in the game, and i guess i'll be getting to the $10M on monday, Filmstardust Aug 02, 20:57

Excellent job hitting $10M in a month bud! Unless you had a lot of experience and a plan, that gain in a month is out of this world! (cont) Willroast Aug 03, 00:39

Thanks again, Willroast! I will join the port league as soon as i can, monday hopefully! (cont) Filmstardust Aug 03, 09:13

I love it when new people "get it". Thhis game is great. Funny you say not knowing "shorting" (cont) CrockettsMafia Aug 03, 10:08

Absolutely! That's why this game is so great, it's fake money, but if you like movies, and box office, in my case you'll end up learning Filmstardust Aug 03, 10:18

I think you can join the 10-30 port now at 9.5+ so let me know in the league if you have any questions. I'll keep an eye out bud! {nm} CrockettsMafia Aug 03, 10:29

I just did! :) {nm} Filmstardust Aug 04, 08:46
