The point is that the price is driven by user activity not news

It is more complicated then x shares sold price drops by y, but that is the basic principle.  In order stop wild fluctuations you need to have some exponential impact from the number of people making the same or similar trades.

You need to remember the type of people using HSX - we are members of the general public who have an interest in films (or stock market based games) and industry knowledge varies wildly.  If you are going to use the data from HSX within the industry I would imagine it is not just the actual stock price you would look at, once you understood the patterns, you would look at how the price changes in relation a trailer being released or a casting decision - nobody really expected BPNTH to do as well as it did, so to think that this group of the general population could have had the price that high that long ago is a strectch.

Anyone want to give their insight why today's Netflix acquisition plunged instantly to pennies but previous grabs are still far above $0? tomcat90 Mar 12, 18:49

To what film are you referring? ndmaster Mar 12, 22:35

GLPPS went immediately from $5.50 to $0.04, but EXTNC (currently $6.88) and WFANF ($5.81) have not. What's the difference? {nm} tomcat90 Mar 13, 08:02

Sorry, typo.....WFANG (not WFANF) {nm} tomcat90 Mar 13, 08:30

EXTNC and WFANG were alot higher priced and\ have dropped a lot more. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 09:36

EXTNC for sure, WFANG less so, but still, why have any value at all if all 3 films "will be on Netflix later this year" and GLPPS was tomcat90 Mar 13, 09:51

EXTNC and WFANG dropped H$5 on the first day of the news too. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 10:44

You are not helping with your answers. ndmaster Mar 13, 11:09

There's nothing "instantenous" about GLPPS. tomcat90's question is always something about not moving fast enough to his liking. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 11:12

First of all, what do you mean? GLPPS went from $5.5 to $.04 in HOURS and it won't be on Netflix until "later this year", the exact same as tomcat90 Mar 13, 11:39

If GLPPS was priced at H$30, then it would also drop like EXTNC. GLPPS moved in the exact same manner as EXTNC and WFANG after one day. {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 11:52

Your answer is wrong. There are just an finite number of traders that log in each day/ {nm} Antibody Mar 13, 11:13

Wrong? Wow. So, when a high priced MST gets bought out by any STV outfit, we should expect a 5 point drop and that's it? {nm} ndmaster Mar 13, 19:59

Yes, in ONE DAY as I've repeated. EXTNC has since dropped another H$15+. WFANG has dropped another H$5+. Antibody Mar 14, 09:45

I would also like to know the answer to this. {nm} MrSmee Mar 12, 23:45
