IPO suggestion: October's baby ndmaster Mar 07, 19:56

RMCAD's TAG hasn't been updated yet. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Mar 05, 19:12

It has been updated, but with the wrong box office. HOLM2's box office #s need to be fixed RogerMore Mar 05, 19:53

Fixed, thanks for the heads up. {nm} Antibody Mar 06, 10:04

You're welcome :) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Mar 06, 13:41

GIFTM; NAPDYN; ROBCBS have all completed their seasons and need to be cashed out. {nm} RazorHawk Mar 05, 09:28

"Buy Max" should mean buy max icanc4 Mar 03, 10:38

for what it's worth, Buy Max there means "buy max allowed for the stock", not max that trader can afford... tealfan Mar 03, 10:41

Usually IME when that happens its because you have multiple buys lined up and earlier buys use up all your cash. {nm} DTravel Mar 03, 12:59

you are wrong.... RazorHawk Mar 04, 07:25

ahh...you're right...of course it won't let me buy more than I have cash for *facepalm* :) {nm} tealfan Mar 04, 09:48

no... *facepalm* RazorHawk Mar 04, 10:51

Question: It would seem like tracking numbers are very, very relevant with opening weekends. Is this true in your experience? {nm} Ryan_Stewart Mar 01, 17:47

Not the numbers by themselves, but some people know how to read them and they share their insights/predictions about them... slappydavid Mar 01, 18:35

Maybe HSX should have a swear jar where we're allowed to cuss in the subject line but we have to pay a reasonable fee to do so. TheWeekendWarrior Feb 29, 05:53

Only if the community shares the HSX $ in the swear jar at the end of an agreed period. We could throw a party of something. {nm} grammar Mar 04, 20:26

Is there any way to post an image on the boards? {nm} Jane_Citizen Feb 28, 21:31

RazorHawk's done it a few times before. Maybe he can tell you how he did it. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Feb 29, 01:56

You could use imgur.com and post the link... {nm} Austinmh Feb 29, 02:03

thanks, I'll try that :) {nm} Jane_Citizen Feb 29, 02:38

sometimes right-clicking and selecting Save Image, and then pasting in your post works {nm} tealfan Feb 29, 08:44

RMCAD TAG off? DTravel Feb 28, 13:32

my math matches yours {nm} lapuckfan Feb 28, 15:05

Found the difference - HOLM2 difference in what is listed on stock page and what is used and listed on BOM 185,888,953. bond differnce is JDolphin Feb 28, 16:56

Does ERC roll VOD into Box Office? Or the studios? Or do they generally keep VOD and BO separate? {nm} Vashta Nerada Feb 26, 14:42

Can someone explain re-shorting, please? won't you lose 2% for covering and again shorting? {nm} Ryan_Stewart Feb 26, 11:40

If you think it's still going down in value, why not just leave it short instead of dropping 2%? (Scratching head) {nm} Ryan_Stewart Feb 26, 11:45

I think on the first short, you free up the cash from your profit...then when you reshort, you only pay the new lower price?... tealfan Feb 26, 13:00

rephrase..."when you cover the first short" {nm} tealfan Feb 26, 13:01

When you are low on cash, you can re-short stocks to free some up... eyescovered Feb 26, 13:01

BONDS does this from time to time....I only do it iff the short is ahead by over 100K. You frree up double that amount in cash. Buy StarBond Fund 18 Feb 26, 14:27

If you shorted at 50 and it's now worth 20, don't you pay 1% of 80 to cover all? You paid 50 and gained 30. {nm} Ryan_Stewart Feb 27, 13:42

No, you pay commission on the stock's current price and how many shares you are trading. Not for profits gained. eyescovered Feb 27, 14:44

Ah...my eyes were covered, but now I see!! {nm} Ryan_Stewart Feb 27, 15:40

;) {nm} eyescovered Feb 28, 03:39

The formula used to involve price paid. It is now simply a %age of current price. Change was some time ago. {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 Feb 29, 11:42

This type of question belongs on the Players board. {nm} grammar Mar 04, 20:29

Typo in ONLLA description: "Only Overs Left Alive". {nm} not2fast Feb 24, 09:59

Why does RUBIN show there is 1.8 million shares left of the 2m share IPO when the page says there are already 17m shares sold? {nm} not2fast Feb 23, 17:51

trading volume on HSX takes into account all the volume long and short. shorts don't count towards offering buy side 2 mill share limit. Oleg Max Feb 23, 18:31

FYI DMac, the embedded trailer for CLSH2 on the stock's homepage is no longer available due to a closed youtube account. {nm} stevie1der328 Feb 23, 12:34

A glitch in the system? Oleg Max Feb 23, 11:06

another example Oleg Max Feb 23, 11:14

I always assumed they only track the highest/lowest prices as at reset times {nm} Jane_Citizen Feb 23, 18:33

but it does not appear to be so... that's why I'm asking... {nm} Oleg Max Feb 23, 19:04

PANAM has finished its season {nm} RazorHawk Feb 21, 08:57

How about a starbond for Michael Winterbottom? Jane_Citizen Feb 20, 06:32

Which movie of his won Best Picture? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 20, 12:32

HAHAHA! Far out, you're right, I was thinking of Danny Boyle. Good grief. Jane_Citizen Feb 20, 19:55

All those British directors sound the same :) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 21, 04:39

*acts shocked* Jane_Citizen Feb 21, 12:23

Seriously, though, he should have a starbond. He'll never be delisted cause he makes a movie every two months* Jane_Citizen Feb 20, 19:58

Quality, not quantity. His films make less than H$1. {nm} Antibody Feb 21, 09:57

Let's not confuse BO with quality. But I take your point. Jane_Citizen Feb 21, 12:22

HSX Neighborhood Watch (2/19/12) - The HSX Dude RazorHawk Feb 19, 10:03

This minor infraction (actually any suspicious activity) is better served with an email to HSEC. {nm} Antibody Feb 20, 10:51

SAFE showing an old date, i belueve {nm} islander Feb 19, 07:11

IPO goes down, that's just wrong petz Feb 19, 01:12

What about when it then randomly goes up $3? It's clear that there are traders controlling this movement and profitting from it The Weekend Warrior Feb 19, 06:21

You know honestly. This is why I only play IPO's sparingly. They just seem too unpredictable. {nm} VictorY Feb 19, 06:25

Same here {nm} RazorHawk Feb 19, 07:53

Indeed. You can have 99% of the shares held long and it goes down a few dollars because the long ones were bought before the IPO was over. Ruthian23 Feb 19, 08:34

The way I see it, the point of limiting shares was to create a demand to buy a stock at IPO price rather than a higher price. The Weekend Warrior Feb 19, 09:00

My observation on this: Paul2k Feb 19, 09:29

people freak out too fast if it drops in price a bit Jane_Citizen Feb 19, 12:02

Except when it's unpredictable. ;) {nm} Paul2k Feb 19, 12:40

I knew you were going to say that. {nm} Jane_Citizen Feb 19, 22:07

I guess I'm predictable. Hey, you still in our neck of the woods? Having fun? {nm} Paul2k Feb 20, 21:06

Yeah, visiting a bunch of art stuff in LA this week Jane_Citizen Feb 20, 22:25

How much **** do we have to take...really. It is so hard to be patient with this dooche. PVL admin Feb 18, 21:29

Hey, you're the one who said "I don't have to explain myself to you." "Your number suck, will always suck." VictorY Feb 18, 21:49

And my personal favorite, "Get off the stage." You don't want responses to that... THEN DON"T POST IT... {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 21:51

Your numbers do suck. Some of the most inaccurate in the game. You don't like it, come up with more accurate guesses. {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 22:05

There not my numbers. Read the thread below {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:07

Whether you like it or not, PVL, I play this game and enjoy doing so. You will treat me with respect that is given to... VictorY Feb 18, 21:53

You use too many generalities. Always, never, etc... What you say is not true. I treat you with the same respect you show others. PVL admin Feb 18, 22:00

Really, you remember this thread???? (link inside)... VictorY Feb 18, 22:05

Bottom line PVL, Don't insult someone, then when they respond you try to have them banned. It's juvenile. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:09

"Everyone" has a right to their opinion. And to be called out. You? You don't offer respectful views. You try to get me mad, on purpos {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:11

How does the song go? "Put the needle on the record"... PVL admin Feb 18, 22:13

How convienient.. Especially when one runs out of responses. Be nicer to me next time PVL. Or I will respond in the same manner. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:16

And to everyone reading this. My apologies for this thread even being here. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:30

Haven't run out of responses. Tired of wasting my breath. http://www.hsx.com/forum/forum.php?id=3&pid=149374 {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 22:31

You're forgetting the thread above. You can't ban someone for having opinions different from yours. Why are you diverting off this??? VictorY Feb 18, 22:37

This isn't a question of free speech. This is a question of how abusive you get when someone says something non-complementary about MCA {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 22:40

That's not a problem. You attacking VictorY on personal level because he posts MCA? That's the problem. Comments like... VictorY Feb 18, 22:44

This was my favority "fly off the handle" series you offered up. Orders and threats...nice. At least you are consistent. PVL admin Feb 18, 23:18

*favorite {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 23:21

Honestly, I have no idea why people give VictorY so much sh*t. HIs posts/links to MCA aren't nearly as gratuitous as another poster's. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Feb 19, 06:24

Thank you WW. I really mean that. {nm} VictorY Feb 19, 06:31

I know why. See my post below... {nm} eyescovered Feb 19, 06:38

Fair enough. I just hate to see someone who tries to be positive and enthusiastic being quelched by those who aren't. The Weekend Warrior Feb 19, 07:03

I do ignore his prediction posts now. It seems mostly everyone else does, too. {nm} eyescovered Feb 19, 07:11

I honestly haven't done a "Sensei right" post in months. I stick to film stuff now. Don't know why they keep bringing that up. {nm} VictorY Feb 19, 07:20

Does sensei know you post here on his behalf? {nm} eyescovered Feb 19, 07:41

DMAC, take away both our posting privileges for a month. I'll take the hit for the team. At least it will be quiet here for a month. {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 22:42

I disagree. We both continue to play and post. PVL will just be more civil in the future. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:46

As will I. Even when he angers me. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 22:54

You know, there was a time I was on your side. I wonder what changed? http://www.hsx.com/forum/forum.php?id=3&pid=99284 {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 23:09

You'll be fine around me PVL, just look to EAP in the future (as long as whoever keeps entering us) to get our current accuracy. Remember... VictorY Feb 18, 23:20

By "our" I mean the accuracy I usually have the site at. Not my own accuracy in anything. If any confusion. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 23:32

There it is, folks. VictorY=MCA. see the "us" and "our". {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 23:40

Yes, I'm friends with those at MCA. No secret (in my profile). I meant the "accuracy figure" I have for them, which is what I go from. {nm} VictorY Feb 18, 23:43

And by "us," I meant since I'm the one who posts MCA's numbers. I think EAP goes off that for their accuracy range, that, and whoever VictorY Feb 19, 00:23

I believe it's "douche"... +1 {nm} PRodQuanta Feb 19, 00:42

ha ha... I was quoting his heading, but thank you. I needed a good laugh. I appreciate it. {nm} VictorY Feb 19, 00:51

Glad I could help. {nm} PRodQuanta Feb 19, 20:28

+2! {nm} slappydavid Feb 19, 04:54

Thanks SD, your port remains awesome, by the way....... {nm} VictorY Feb 19, 06:05

Um...check the alignment, they are +1-ing and +2-ing the ban, not your banter. {nm} PVL admin Feb 19, 10:19

Not necessarily plusoneing the ban (I have an opinion but would rather not voice it), but of your comment made me laugh. PRodQuanta Feb 19, 20:32

If I were "sensei", I'd be ashamed of you... eyescovered Feb 19, 06:37

(link inside)... VictorY Feb 19, 06:53

Ok? eyescovered Feb 19, 07:10
