CelebStock and StarBonds

When choosing Starbonds to buy or short for upcoming adjusts, what's the lowest DROI I should consider? What's your lowest number? {nm} jdaniel Nov 17, 21:26

For a port your size -- as long as the gain covers comission (buy and sell) {nm} JDolphin Nov 17, 21:52

Thanks! Actually I was asking for my daughters 12 mill port, and she doesn't want dad's help, she wants pros advice! plus I trade movies. fricnfractal Nov 17, 23:07

For a 12 mil port, the answer is VERY different. She should only play starbonds on a short term basis, adjusting 2-3 week out. PVL Admin Nov 18, 00:17

Finally, have her go here and scroll down a bit in the league description. Lots of info for new players. She doesn't have to join to read. PVL Admin Nov 18, 00:21

Thanks again, she's learned alot already. And, so am I. Started looking at starbonds to invest in today :) {nm} jdaniel Nov 19, 18:19

You are most welcome. Be sure to look at Elchan's charts to verify DRoi. At her level it's critical for growth. {nm} PVL Admin Nov 19, 21:15

What a great question for the Player's Forum... Use whatever money you have available and buy down from highest to lowest Droi. PVL Admin Nov 17, 22:50

Thanks. I'll ask there as well. I just assumed the starbond pros she wanted would be found here :-) {nm} fricnfractal Nov 17, 23:14

Are you also JDaniel? You asked the question as one player and thanked us as someone else... confused. {nm} PVL Admin Nov 18, 00:17

Sorry, I was busy having a fun time looking at my wifes port and responded from there. We all play here. It's cheap and fun entertainment! {nm} fricnfractal Nov 18, 01:55

Apply standard investment theory. What is your opportunity cost and risk? A dROI of > 2% will earn you money for that day. elchan2012 Nov 18, 14:35

But you don't need 2% in one day to make a profit. 1% for 2 days, .5 for 4, .25 for 8 etc... So where's the line? PVL Admin Nov 18, 14:43

The longer the investment horizon, the higher the total ROI needs to be, because the risk is higher. Investment 101. elchan2012 Nov 18, 22:34

*returns COD* your care packages are just as pointless as your posts. Here's your sign. (backorder came in today). PVL Admin Nov 19, 14:17

That really only applies when the amount of stock you can purchase is unlimited. When you own max shares of everything and something new PVL Admin Nov 19, 14:16

Talking about a 12 MILL Port - shows how Out-Of-Touch you are with Small Ports. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 19, 18:13

Already covered above. This discussion has progressed to something else. So hush while the adults speak! {nm} PVL Admin Nov 19, 20:12

We all saw how you did in the YTD Competition. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 19, 20:51

Well, if you want to maximize your rate of return dROI is always important. There's the opportunity cost concept again. elchan2012 Nov 19, 19:38

Sure, ok. Discussion closed as I am not going around the circle a third time. Out. {nm} PVL Admin Nov 19, 20:13

See - that's the basic Problem - you keep going in Circles while others get right to the Point. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 19, 20:47
