How did Alien Vs Predator OW Call and Put both pay out? {nm} terraformingearth Jul 11, 09:43

You can use Advanced Search searching for “Alien” using Security Type = “Active and Delisted” / “Derivatives” to find the answer {nm} WorkinMan Jul 12, 09:29

Advanced Search does not explain how an OW Call and Put *BOTH* paid out! At least one needs to go to $0. FrozenDude Jul 12, 17:06

No, one does NOT need to go to zero. Inside. DTravel Jul 12, 22:52

If it hit the OW strike price exactly wouldn't both the GET and PUT cash out at $0? {nm} FrozenDude Jul 14, 17:23

Yes, but that doesn't explain both sides being + payouts {nm} terraformingearth Jul 15, 08:07

You're not making sense ndmaster Jul 16, 18:38

Two queries Tallwonder Jul 10, 08:40

Answer on the first one ndmaster Jul 10, 10:14

And the answer to the second is "after 12 weekends". DTravel Jul 10, 19:11

OP asked about re-releases. Look at Coraline... FrozenDude Jul 11, 08:09

It gets added if it gets reported to ERC. DTravel Jul 11, 18:36

Thank you - both of you Tallwonder Jul 10, 22:59

H$ 4.5B! 9 days late to my own target, but happy nonetheless. cmbastos Jul 10, 06:00

If you haven't been watching too closely, the following SBOs are worth taking a look at for near term adjusts... Rocket Jul 06, 10:26

Q: Non-traditional release days (ex: Monday, Tuesday) - when does 'weekend' counting start for determining delist date? ballpark_frank Jul 02, 18:29

Doesn’t matter what day of the week it opens - delists after 4 (wide) or 12 (limited) weekends {nm} bchicken Jul 03, 06:38

jhm passed me :( MattW Jul 01, 06:03

Huzzah! {nm} AARPfund Jun 25, 22:21

Congrats! I had almost the same story. Opened in 2008, dormant from 2010- Nov 2022. Came back to $88m and hit $1b 2 weeks ago {nm} nulemoni Jun 26, 05:09

congrats! {nm} tealfan Jun 26, 10:01

SJAME, VFARM, AWOOD, RDENI are the big adjusters for this week. DHUST also since TBBH is now delisting ahead of HORZN. Rocket Jun 23, 10:03

If HSX has a recorded gross $ for a released and active movie is that an official lowest delist $, or can it be placed back to “n/a” later? {nm} WASunDevil Jun 20, 00:31

If I'm understanding the question correctly, it won't go back to "n/a". But... DTravel Jun 20, 18:57

Yes, DTMBD. I think I found my answer. WASunDevil Jun 20, 19:37

I can't remember any MS having its reported BO being "zeroed out" once any has been reported and added to the security. DTravel Jun 21, 18:29

Sort of nice timing - shorted "Inside Out 2" $100 PUT derivative at $4.21 (after selling off at $4.25) {nm} ballpark_frank Jun 17, 12:51

And... as the day draws to a close - today's current net +$$10,147,803.51 (1.74%) (personal best) {nm} ballpark_frank Jun 17, 21:07

Probably inctive players, but IROSS has a large adjust coming up and most are holding the wrong end of the stick... Rocket Jun 16, 09:12

Oops: PSA: correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears (at time of post) that 83% of people are holding MHAWK incorrectly. See notes: Rocket Jun 16, 09:02

re-do your math {nm} Bond_Port Jun 17, 09:45

I re-did my math and confirmed with Kaigee. We both have the same results. could you please show me where I have made an error? Rocket Jun 17, 17:16

My spreadsheet agrees with Rocket. INOU2 will delist 7/8; WLDCT will delist on 7/22. DTravel Jun 17, 18:51

My bad. You right. I did the math wrong. {nm} Bond_Port Jun 17, 19:55

NP. Thx for checking. {nm} Rocket Jun 18, 00:46

Useless trivia: MMAX5 listed at 70.00 in 2015. It rose to 162.98 before reversing. Will likely delist below list price, 9 years later... Rocket Jun 09, 09:31

If you aren't tracking SBOs closely, Jun 11 adjust still has several SBOs with a high DROI. Worth double checking... Rocket Jun 09, 09:03

A couple of notables are EMARS and GCLOO DTravel Jun 09, 13:07

Next week has an extremely nice adjust, which is surprisingly held wrong by the majority of holders. {nm} WorkinMan Jun 10, 17:42

Is anyone able to give a rational for Garfield's stock behavior? {nm} terraformingearth Jun 03, 07:34

Most likely just players getting out of their short positions to use the H$ for other things, not bc they're playing the stock itself. {nm} MattW Jun 03, 20:34

Why doesn't Richard Dreyfuss have a star bond? I was hoping to short him after his rant the way I did with Will Smith after the Oscar's slap {nm} Taopuppy May 28, 09:05

I don't claim to know, but I have a nominal amount shorted to keep an eye on any drop starting {nm} terraformingearth May 17, 07:28

It's going to make over 200M on its opening weekend, so I'd say no. JoshuaL Jun 20, 10:52

Do many here use order limits? {nm} terraformingearth May 14, 07:52

I have tried on and off over the years but could never get it to work {nm} SirWinstonNewkirk May 14, 11:49

For bond adjusts {nm} ribwoods1 May 14, 15:53

Yeah, this is the only time for me, too, especially if I'm away on a Tuesday {nm} ndmaster May 14, 15:56

... and some stocks just before delist. {nm} ribwoods1 May 14, 15:58

Why would you trade just before adjust? More than likely worse prices than delist and you pay commission. {nm} ndmaster May 17, 10:48

Shorting can be profitable, top {nm} ribwoods1 May 19, 02:51

WTF is all of this? {nm} ndmaster May 17, 10:47

All of what? My four aborted posts were due to muscle tremors. {nm} ribwoods1 May 19, 02:56

I hope you're kidding, because that's pretty damn funny {nm} ndmaster May 22, 10:31

Not kidding, "essential tremor" Look it up. (Yes, it is indeed funny sometimes :-) {nm} ribwoods1 May 26, 07:42

Might want to compare what happens to a stock when you place a limit order at the current price compared to a buy/sell/short/cover at market {nm} Abraxas May 28, 15:15

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (Options) Taopuppy May 12, 17:13
