If you are going to trade moviestocks after they adjust, you should learn how to predict delist multipliers. Relevant factors are the movie's word of mouth, the target audience, whether the movie is front-loaded and the time of year the movie is released. You can also look at historical delist multipliers of similar movies.
Similar to the internal multiplier, movies aimed at teenagers and hardcore fans tend to have low delist multipliers, while movies targeted at adults and families will have high delist multipliers - especially if they also have good word of mouth.
The time of year can also influence the delist multiplier. For example, movie audiences are often busy before Christmas but have plenty of free time to see movies over the holidays, so movies that open close to Christmas usually have high delist multipliers. Similarly, summer movies can have higher-than-average delist multipliers, because children on school holidays have more opportunities to see movies.

Can someone give some guidance on how we are supposed to value moviestocks now? {nm} Oct 28, 12:06

Your name reminded me of HSXsanity. Found some info <inside>... Oct 28, 12:29
Shouldn't the "MAX" amount you can trade on OW warrants increase to match the $ amount of the underlying stock you can trade? Oct 28, 13:07
No, because, in essence, the .OW is leverage. Oct 28, 21:14
Please bring back Chart of the Week {nm} Oct 28, 12:34

What kind of useful data does HSX get from movie stocks at this point {nm} Oct 28, 12:38
Good lord...our estimate of the movie at delist! {nm} Oct 28, 21:15
So just to clarify, for myself anyway haha, we treat stock prices as what they'll do for 4 or 12 week totals. Oct 28, 13:03
Sounds right to me...no more huge adjusts after a halt..say goodbye to those. {nm} Oct 28, 14:23
Yeah, I'm with you on that. Thanks, just wanted to make sure i had this right. {nm} Oct 28, 15:26
I feel like IPO Prices should be much cheaper now because of this news. {nm} Oct 28, 17:30
+1 - Especially supers/sequels/horror - they should be almost 40% lower now if you want any trading on them... {nm} Oct 29, 06:11
Ty antibody... Happy trading all ! {nm} Oct 28, 14:21
Just take the halt of the movie stocks back one day and everything is fun again!!!! {nm} Oct 28, 14:23
Seriously not happy about this news. {nm} Oct 28, 14:26
OW limit should be increase. 250k would be sufficient. {nm} Oct 28, 15:01
+1 {nm} Oct 28, 16:17
I said the same thing above, but it's inside the headline. I'm with you. It's the right thing to do {nm} Oct 28, 18:28
*closer {nm} Oct 28, 15:03
Agreed that OW stock limit should increase with these changes. {nm} Oct 28, 15:14
Great! Can we go back to the gold standard and drop the FED too?!?!? {nm} Oct 28, 15:33
