Gut Checks? {nm} HollywoodTycoon61 Nov 12, 21:53

Short both - (v.marginal on 2012 - expecting a circa 55m opening w/e. Pirate short. {nm} Somerset Nov 12, 22:32

I thought gut checks is allowed after 00:00 which is another hour more? {nm} karspov Nov 12, 22:56

Pretty sure it is Midnight Eastern, not pacific for gutchecks. {nm} grengrad Nov 12, 23:03

I think that was when the boards ran on eastern time. It's already 2:00am back east. {nm} MojaveMeg Nov 12, 23:03

Still the sensible thing to do is follow the internal clock that ends all these mesaages. mine says 23 hrs and some minutes now {nm} JMT Nov 12, 23:06

I am not sure that is the most sensible thing, when you consider most of the country is asleep by Midnight Pacific. :) grengrad Nov 12, 23:08

Agreed.. all these different time lapses is making it a bit confusing.. karspov Nov 12, 23:11

sorry, caused some problems there...its 3:30pm Friday where I am, its almost the weekend and easy to forget you guys are so far behind..... {nm} Somerset Nov 12, 23:29

hey buddy.. where are you from? I am 3.30pm here too ;-) {nm} karspov Nov 12, 23:33

From UK but working in Singapore at the moment and the rest of the region as required...you? {nm} Somerset Nov 12, 23:36

No wonder.. Somerset sounds real familiar.. haha.. ;-) {nm} karspov Nov 12, 23:45

The sensible thing is to say gutchecks are allowed from 9:00 pm on the HSX clock {nm} RogerMore Nov 13, 03:12

What's with this "allowed" crap? Folks are free to post what they want when they want. If u don't wanna respond to an "early" GC, then don't {nm} HuskyMiller Nov 13, 05:40

its the way its been done. posts any earlier tend to be manipulation. Oh and post "anything we want?" Spam, viruses, racial slurs? that ok? {nm} islander Nov 13, 06:18

I never used the word "anything." You did. My comment is in a thread about gut checks and you know just as well as I do THAT is what I meant HuskyMiller Nov 13, 06:50

That's not the case. There are several things you're not allowed to post - recent trades you've made (eg I just longed MOVIE!!!) or RogerMore Nov 13, 06:19

Are you freakin' kidding me? I see the exact type of posts you mentioned here all the time –– no analysis included. HuskyMiller Nov 13, 07:34

I've just done a quick scan of the last three boards, and don't see anything like you're suggesting. Do you have an example you can link to RogerMore Nov 13, 07:58

How about the post you made above on this very page suggesting a good rule of thumb is to short any wide release under $20? HuskyMiller Nov 13, 09:13

That's a general observation, and not related to a specific stock. If you need better guidance than I can provide, have a look at the code RogerMore Nov 13, 09:46

That's not a sepcific call to action. {nm} Antibody Nov 13, 09:59

It absolutely is! He said "ANY" wide release under $20. HuskyMiller Nov 13, 10:22

Have a look at the Code of Conduct (linked inside). I don't see why you're getting upset when I'm trying to be helpful RogerMore Nov 13, 11:46

Because posting a call of action is generally not allowed. Otherwise, people would just post them every day to drive stock prices. {nm} Antibody Nov 13, 10:04

Just for the sake of argument lets say you are correct: why is it ok to manipulate prices one day a week but not the other six? HuskyMiller Nov 13, 10:35

It {nm} Antibody Nov 13, 10:42

It's mere HOURS before the stock is halted, when there are opinions for both side. It's hard to manipulate heavy trading going both ways. {nm} Antibody Nov 13, 10:45

Days, hours, or minutes it does not matter. The loses are real so I'll ask again, why is there a free period to screw with my fake money? HuskyMiller Nov 13, 11:40

short both {nm} adrenalin112 Nov 13, 00:02

long on 2012 and short on pirate. {nm} Mattrek Nov 13, 00:23

Short 2012 {nm} mrbeankc Nov 13, 00:28

I'm shorting both. 2012 is iffy, but it's a post adjust short anyway. *shrug* {nm} OdysseusG Nov 13, 00:39

short both. but at the end of the day I might flip 2012. {nm} JMT Nov 13, 00:51

Long on 2012 and short Pirates. Mattrek...let's hope we are psychic like with MJ. ;-) {nm} Catzan Nov 13, 01:15

Cusack has never carried a big-budget actioner and Pirate Radio is bordering on being an indie. Short both :) {nm} john Nov 13, 01:25

There's a first time for everything, though - perhaps his time has come, at the end of the days of earth? ;-) Facto Nov 13, 05:50

Con Air! {nm} RogerMore Nov 13, 06:19

Short both. {nm} joeoftexas Nov 13, 02:47

Ya know, joeoftexas, I'm taking it in the shorts so bad at EAP I might as well go out on a limb and really play my gut. We've had such a bad DestroyingAngel Nov 13, 07:29

I am long on 2012, short on PRADO (and so is CAINE) {nm} RogerMore Nov 13, 03:13

Shorting both. If 2012S dips too much, I might flip or probably just take my gains and cover it. {nm} eyescovered Nov 13, 04:36

Short both. {nm} photochick814 Nov 13, 04:59

I'm not usually superstitious, but today is Friday the 13th---Good or bad omen? {nm} HollywoodTycoon61 Nov 13, 05:18

Long 2012S {nm} thatpj Nov 13, 05:41

probably short both. {nm} islander Nov 13, 06:24

long 2012S. not enough funds to play other. In hindsight i should've played the trend and shorted 2012, and went long an hour from now. QQ {nm} kensanity Nov 13, 06:27

Still stinging from JACKO long... - Shorting PRADO and 2012S [nm] erehwon Nov 13, 07:45

Two wrongs don't make a right - but best of luck to ya ;-) I shorted JACKO and made a healthy profit, hope to make the same this WE {nm} Facto Nov 13, 09:22
