Hi SachinKabra Feb 22, 20:11

Hello. DTravel Feb 22, 20:56

Just remember, crawl before you walk, walk before you run and you will stumble. {nm} Grunt Feb 23, 07:08

Welcome, now invest your cash in some films you think will make some money in the US. {nm} tatoufan Feb 29, 11:04

Thirteen months, $162MM Bond_Port Feb 19, 16:38

keep going!...good luck to 200M {nm} tealfan Feb 19, 17:15

Impressive! {nm} Grunt Feb 19, 19:42

Does anyone know what happened to that site "theun4gven", that showed daily intraday HSX stock movements? {nm} tomcat90 Feb 15, 14:50

I dunno, but appears to be dead. Sad... {nm} ndmaster Feb 15, 19:39

KaiGee.com still has that same info {nm} KaiGee Feb 16, 06:47

We depend on KaiGee for so much. Thank you. {nm} GruntNoNeck Feb 16, 07:31

ditto! Thanks KaiGee. We don't say thanks enough! {nm} Neilthor Feb 16, 15:45

tritto! Thanks KaiGee! {nm} ndmaster Feb 16, 21:13

I think it is something that downloads with Tampermonkey and edzep was involved somehow. Unfortunately, he has retired. {nm} baconmaker Feb 17, 12:53

un4given.... RazorHawk Feb 18, 08:05

20 years of HSX, down the drain . . . might as well have joined the goddamned Peace Corps! (But seriously . . . SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 18, 08:58

I've considered adding some very basic pages similar to what un4given had. It wouldn't take much work. {nm} KaiGee Feb 19, 04:48

If there is a hosting charge or something similar, Delta House will contribute {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 19, 12:12

There was another HSXer that used to discuss screenings, etc. at Delta House. Is that individual gone? Are you acquaintances? {nm} PhoneHome Feb 19, 10:51

Delta House changed name from DTXbro to SenJohnBlutarsky a year or so ago. Same bunch of losers.Thanks for asking. {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 19, 12:11

Thanks, just curiosity - I get the Animal House reference, but in this case who does Delta House represent - a group of friends, a family? PhoneHome Feb 19, 12:36

Just one person who recognizes that Animal House is and likely always will be the greatest achievement in American cinema SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 20, 00:55

Thanks. That's amazing! I need to revisit Animal House. I was a one-timer, but I was "thrifty". {nm} PhoneHome Feb 20, 17:40

Back then, it was something like $1.50 for the early showings. {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 20, 18:11

Try this out... KaiGee Feb 19, 19:43

That is great! How can we reach you to address your hosting expenses? SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 20, 08:15

Thanks for the offer... KaiGee Feb 20, 08:48

This is great KaiGee! {nm} PhoneHome Feb 20, 17:41

Will someone explain to me the reason behind buying both the Put and Call? {nm} GruntNoNeck Feb 12, 18:45

I do it when they IPO b/c they both usually go up. then i'll change one the other way later..... unless i forget like i did with Sonic haha {nm} NOLEAFCLOVR Feb 12, 18:51

If you think the strike is fair, but not sure if it will over or underperform. {nm} ndmaster Feb 13, 14:13

If you buy and that's the wrong play your downside is limited to H$2 per share. MattW Feb 13, 17:21

So if you buy both and the spread is more than $2 either way, your are assured of a profit. {nm} GruntNoNeck Feb 14, 10:50

Has to be more than $4 to cover whichever one cashes out at 0. {nm} ndmaster Feb 14, 14:33

Yep, my calcs were 100% off. Thanks. {nm} GruntNoNeck Feb 14, 17:48

Even if the "winning" CA/PU doesn't reach $4, it still partially offsets the losses from the other. {nm} DTravel Feb 16, 10:45

Congratulations and Many Thanks to 'oneman' Who Guided the LGBTQ Fund to a Dlisting Today @ $100.65! {nm} kibitzer Feb 11, 13:14

Shouldn't they be "one-identifies-as-person" given the fund's theme? :P {nm} DTravel Feb 11, 14:42

I identify as an asparagus. Mic_Lapwood Feb 12, 05:19

What is the point of HSX billionaires posting their milestones? We can see your HSX Net Worth in Leaderboards. {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Feb 09, 06:24

Esprit de corps! Wellespring Feb 09, 09:38

Primate chest thumping! Competition! (Friendly or otherwise) Ego! Its Fun! {nm} DTravel Feb 09, 09:40

apparently, you haven't heard of the executive washrooms, or that with rank comes priviledges ... {nm} pacrat Feb 09, 11:26

Actually, going up $1B here or there is still hard for some of us..and once you get to the top 300, every spot you climb is hard... {nm} Flash Feb 09, 14:49

We don't spend as much time examining the leaderboards as you. {nm} Bond_Port Feb 09, 15:23

For sure he seems to spend more time complaining and following the leaderboard then I do actually trading. {nm} hotsambatcho Feb 19, 09:54

What is the point of making two HSX accounts and then using them to argue with yourself on the HSX Boards? {nm} RazorHawk Feb 10, 08:04

What do you think is his other account? {nm} ndmaster Feb 11, 22:50

Same look at me as your random "progress reports". {nm} AJRimmer Feb 10, 10:09

20 years and 3 days... and still enjoying playing. What's your best memories about HSX? {nm} delfinasu Jan 27, 01:10

HSX Orange {nm} KaiGee Jan 27, 04:58

Thanks for the laugh!! {nm} JDolphin Jan 27, 12:22

oh, you laugh. but some of us ... well .... {nm} pacrat Jan 27, 14:02

I can laugh now because I went thru it :) {nm} JDolphin Jan 28, 22:14

So, what was HSX Orange? {nm} PhoneHome Feb 05, 06:56

I can't seem to find a screenshot in archive.org...the 6/21/09 screenshot has original and then 6/29/09 it's already HSX Green?...anyone? tealfan Feb 05, 12:32

The site was basically done in "Halloween" colors...orange & black...the heading was black/orange along with other pages, posts, etc {nm} Flash Feb 05, 15:49

It didn't last long...lots of complaints, etc.. so eventually the colors were changed. {nm} Flash Feb 05, 15:50

It wasn't the colors. The damn site didn't work! {nm} ndmaster Feb 05, 19:22

Well...yes, THAT too. :-) But the colors were ugly as well..at least IMO... {nm} Flash Feb 06, 09:45

I actually liked the colors. But that was the only thing I liked about it. Trading was horrendous, i was all about posting and being social, JDolphin Feb 06, 21:28

IT was all about being social - not me (I), I hated that part. {nm} JDolphin Feb 07, 14:24

HSX Orange... RazorHawk Feb 05, 16:46

thx! {nm} tealfan Feb 05, 17:13

Wow, that's hilarious! Talk about misjudging the audience. Thanks for the info Razor! {nm} PhoneHome Feb 18, 08:09

When stocks halted, the prices were not even close to the huge adjust the next day if the movie opened big. :-) {nm} Flash Jan 27, 08:27

Yeah the big upward adjusts were fun bu the easy post-adjust shorts were nice {nm} MattW Feb 01, 13:04

*fun, and the easy post adjust shorts were nice too. Made things simpler to have that set adjust multi as a baseline after OW {nm} MattW Feb 01, 13:05

True, but back then you couldn't short - so you either held it or sold off, or you were sunk on big adjusts! :-) {nm} Flash Feb 02, 08:33

Ah, you meant the friday halt, that was before my time. MattW Feb 02, 15:41

watching the numbers keep going up and up the opening Friday night of AVNGR {nm} tealfan Jan 27, 09:06

PASON and SHREK ndmaster Jan 27, 11:11

i remember PASON and blair witch project were both much bigger adjusts than just about anyone expected {nm} pacrat Jan 27, 14:03

Increasing my port from 60M to 90M in 1 weekend due to DEADP. Thank you RREYN. {nm} Grunt Jan 27, 14:08

HOLY CRAP... you made me look and I see I"ve been on here for 23 years.... geez... {nm} KLB Jan 28, 15:48

I guess you're the geezer of the group...you even got me beat by a few months!! :-) {nm} Flash Jan 28, 16:51

Ahh yes the glory days. Mic_Lapwood Feb 04, 15:38

I REMEMBER... RazorHawk Feb 04, 16:51

I just sold my port a couple summers ago on Ebay... ndmaster Feb 04, 18:58

How much was in the Portfolio, and how much did you get for it? {nm} Mic_Lapwood Feb 05, 04:48

Portfolio ndmaster Feb 05, 11:51

Was that HSX Minute sponsored by HSX, cease-and-desisted by HSX, or what? Did any of the HSX Minutes ever go beyond SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 05, 12:02

HSX Minute was from HSX Orange....which lasted 2 weeks before being taken down {nm} RazorHawk Feb 05, 16:31

Cool Idea: HSX Ports As A Security, Like a Fund {Read More for Rules...} NeilSite_VanThomas Jan 24, 08:27

Interesting thought...Not sure how you would 'value' a port I held...if their port goes up $1M...do I get $1M also?? Flash Jan 24, 13:48

seeing some nice day-trading going on with stuff i'm not seeing new news on ... must be something in the water lol {nm} pacrat Jan 22, 12:43

If you are only seeing that now you haven't been paying attention. :) {nm} DTravel Jan 22, 16:04

One year in, $140MM Bond_Port Jan 16, 14:07

Excellent performance! {nm} Grunt Jan 16, 19:25

Wow! I'm glad I hold it!! :-) {nm} Flash Jan 17, 08:58

You know its not BONDS, right? {nm} Bond_Port Jan 17, 11:26

Yes...I was having some fun with it. :-) {nm} Flash Jan 18, 11:05

You do know that talking to yourself is usually not a good sign, right? DTravel Jan 18, 12:17

I went bonkers a long time ago. :-) {nm} Flash Jan 19, 08:48

Just wanted to make sure you were aware. {nm} DTravel Jan 19, 15:03

Awesome. Starting from that base I'd guess year 2 has the potential for 200+ MattW Jan 21, 13:17

since this comes up a lot (and I was bored =P), here's what HSX says about manipulation and posting tealfan Jan 16, 12:09

So, then according to what you posted, are there not numerous well-known HSX billionaires in violation of blatant market manipulation? NeilSite_VanThomas Jan 17, 07:32

I have 2 ports...but the smaller one is mainly for bonds, and I don't trade in it that often, it's become more of a 'stepchild.' {nm} Flash Jan 17, 09:01

How exactly do you think my site is in violation? {nm} KaiGee Jan 19, 08:05

I think he's accusing you of facilitating co-ordinated trading by players who use the information on your site. {nm} DTravel Jan 19, 15:05

Yeah like HSX would actuallyhave a link to a site that violates their policies. hotsambatcho Jan 20, 07:51
