My semiannual report on my port's progress {Read for more details...} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 17, 20:37

Hahahaha!! I just figured it out... ndmaster Jul 18, 00:05

Yes he must be otherwise he is completely clueless. {nm} AJRimmer Jul 18, 07:21

My semi-annual report hotsambatcho Jul 18, 07:30

Nice work. As a newbie I got to H$50m after 6 months and then H$250m at the year mark, so I think you'll easily hit it. MattW Jul 18, 09:53

agree with MattW... Those are some nice gains since January for only 2-3 times a week! you'll blow past 250M easy! {nm} SEETVFund Jul 18, 13:39

MitchC > NeilSite_VanThomas {nm} RazorHawk Jul 18, 13:25

Pretty much. MattW Jul 18, 16:59

WRONG. As usual, you take aim at me because I don't openly worship HSX billionaires. {More-->} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 19, 10:40

kneel before us or be thrown into the fiery furnace! {nm} forlorne Jul 19, 12:11

open worship = "RogerMore: I'm new to this game...Can you show me the ropes?" {nm} RazorHawk Jul 19, 13:03

............................................................................................................... MattW Jul 19, 17:26

*fresh {nm} MattW Jul 19, 17:27

Thanks, MattW...I will do that! {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 19, 18:33

It's about just this one starbond MattW Jul 20, 18:07

Edit: it's *not* about just this one starbond {nm} MattW Jul 20, 18:08

And Matt is talking about longs, there are bucks to be made with shorts as well. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jul 20, 18:42

Alright...Thanks for the tip! :) {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 21, 06:32

You just dont get it. I log on once or twice a week, it doesn't a lot of effort. AJRimmer Jul 21, 18:47

AJRimmer: I think I called your bluff, which is why you bothered to respond, as I wasn't talking to you directly {More-->} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 21, 19:03

Ha damn funny. You should do standup. {nm} hotsambatcho Jul 22, 04:59

Didn't you already know he's a comedian? {nm} ndmaster Jul 23, 19:14

$20 billion! All other milestones bow before mine! {nm} RogerMore Jul 17, 05:41

Super! {nm} islndr Jul 17, 06:35

congrats {nm} oneman Jul 17, 06:37

RogerMore: I'm new to this game...Can you show me the ropes? (But I'm no stranger to commodities!) {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 17, 08:22

All kinds of help immediately below. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jul 17, 08:42

I thought you were bragging about overtaking him sometime soon. Has reality finally hit you in the face? {nm} ndmaster Jul 17, 15:54

Considering his profile says he has played for over 11 years calling himself new isn't reality. {nm} AJRimmer Jul 17, 18:44

Things that dreams are made of! Congrats. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jul 17, 08:41

VERY WELL DONE! {nm} kibitzer Jul 17, 08:50

Wow! Great job {nm} Nobody Jul 17, 09:33

Only one more zero to get Double-O status! :D {nm} DTravel Jul 17, 10:18

time for another Lotus Espirit!...congrats! {nm} tealfan Jul 17, 10:38

It's a Bingo! {nm} ndmaster Jul 17, 11:10

Well done, Sir! {nm} tatoufan Jul 17, 17:42

Awesome work! {nm} cj19 Jul 17, 18:10

Well done {nm} MattW Jul 18, 00:30

Wowzers!! Nice Milestone!! You'll be hard to catch!! {nm} Flash Jul 18, 08:06

Thanks everyone {nm} RogerMore Jul 18, 14:01

Grab a brew! Don't cost nuthin'. {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jul 18, 15:50

Grab a brew! Don't cost nuthin'. {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jul 18, 15:50

WOO HOO! Wow - Congratulations seems so inadequate That's a milestone to celebrate!! {nm} JDolphin Jul 18, 21:24

Congrats? {nm} laujer Jul 28, 06:37

Stuck..? MitchC Jul 14, 13:13

Sorry MitchC Jul 14, 13:14

What strategies are you using? ndmaster Jul 14, 17:02

... MitchC Jul 14, 17:26

Give Starbonds a chance ndmaster Jul 14, 17:39

... MattW Jul 14, 18:54

I was throwing him a bone, not a filet mignon... {nm} ndmaster Jul 14, 20:13

Sometimes when you lead a horse to water, you have to duck its head in. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jul 14, 20:39

A wise man once said here, "Short what you just sold". Think about why you sold it. GruntNoNeck Jul 14, 20:51

BINGO! {nm} ndmaster Jul 14, 21:02

you still remember after all these years! {nm} RazorHawk Jul 15, 05:21

I 'member it evry day, evry week, ..... {nm} GruntNoNeck Jul 15, 05:43

MitchC is a billionaire {nm} RogerMore Jul 15, 12:51

.. MitchC Jul 15, 15:17

... RogerMore Jul 16, 06:32

It's too late to invest in this week's starbonds if you didn't already, so the TOYS4 opportunity is gone. MattW Jul 15, 16:05

I had a nice long post about not chasing losses and pick a trading strategy that fits the amount of time you spend online bu HSX signed me JDolphin Jul 15, 23:08

What Dolphin said. {nm} DTravel Jul 16, 10:14

+2 {nm} MattW Jul 16, 12:52

Domino shelact Jul 11, 17:39

It also hasn't reported any box office. Might as well still be in the wrapper. {nm} DTravel Jul 11, 18:27

Couple of very flippable star bonds today {nm} forlorne Jul 09, 13:24

I can dig it. {nm} egolub Jul 09, 17:20

i know it's been said before, but i sure do miss commission-free saturdays {nm} Those_left_behind Jul 06, 10:14

What I miss the most is covering and re-shorting to gain some cash! {nm} GruntNoNeck Jul 06, 10:37

Yeah, well...I MISS Friday and Saturday adjusts when we had'em back then!! {nm} Flash Jul 06, 13:08

I miss Redeem H$. I really wanted the HSX t-shirt & pens. {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 06, 19:13

link inside: {nm} forlorne Jul 08, 08:59

trying again forlorne Jul 08, 09:00

Nice find! i'll have to buy some HSX gear. {nm} SEETVFund Jul 08, 15:57

Thanks, but this is NOT official HSX merchandise. The link takes you to CafePress, where you can have anything printed on a t-shirt. {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 08, 19:24

i think that I sitll have an HSX cap that i got when they were doing this {nm} pacrat Jul 11, 14:58

I miss continuous showings of a double feature with a short before the show. Even TOYS4 was missing the short. {nm} Buy BONDS 31 Jul 10, 15:03

My buddy posted, so why not do a Bond Port Update? NVT_vs_bonds Jul 04, 21:47

Nice work, thank for the update! {nm} tatoufan Jul 09, 09:27

Good stuff, pretty much right on track from what you were thinking initially. {nm} MattW Jul 11, 16:46

Why is EVERYTHING down lately? Blatant market manipulation from HSX billionaires again? KaiGee's site down? {More-->} NeilSite_VanThomas Jun 30, 14:04

I'm not saying it was aliens, but... {nm} Giorgio Tsoukalos Jun 30, 14:06

...it was aliens. {nm} DTravel Jun 30, 20:38

So Soros and the Kochs really are aliens.... MattW Jul 01, 08:37

Reptilian HSX billionaires. {nm} tatoufan Jul 09, 09:29

The strategy you are using is not working... you need a new strategy. {nm} RazorHawk Jun 30, 14:17

Do you seriously only own securities long? You don't short ANYTHING? ndmaster Jun 30, 21:51

Yes its the billionaires manipulating everything not your strategy. {nm} AJRimmer Jul 01, 07:47

Server problems, tinfoil hat, kiagee was on holiday. {More-->} thomasisnewhere Jul 01, 08:00

I don't know what really going on but its helping me try to reach my 6 month goal of 100M. {nm} hotsambatcho Jul 02, 04:00

NeilSite_VanThomas here's a free mxwizard1 Jul 07, 08:53

Come on, man, don't you know he'll be in the #3 overall spot by then? Get with the program! {nm} NVT_vs_bonds Jul 07, 10:40

mxwizard1: I just took your advice about Jeffrey Wright, but only testing 100 shares for now. {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 09, 19:06

Truth is mxwizard1 Jul 10, 13:57

One mxwizard1 Jul 10, 14:55

mxwizard1: I increased my short of Jeffrey Wright to 1,000 shares. I'm already long max on THANKS. {nm} NeilSite_VanThomas Jul 11, 20:22

Attention Kaigee: Your website's weekly updates of MS and SB seems to be running a week behind {nm} DTravel Jun 27, 10:46

...And your Movements page no longer works (404 error) {nm} Nobody Jun 27, 11:32

The updates are behind because I've been updating late. I'll have to check on the Movements page later. {nm} KaiGee Jun 27, 12:26

Thank you. Don't mean to be demanding, appreciate the free stuff. {nm} DTravel Jun 27, 17:54

Does anyone know ~ what % of movies in each phase end up getting made & released in theaters? {nm} forlorne Jun 26, 12:20

I don't know...but I bet the Concept & Development % is pretty low..plus many are probably 'limited' and not wide release. {nm} Flash Jun 27, 08:05

Looking through the movies in "wrap", "Tribeca" in any post seems to be the kiss of death. {nm} forlorne Jun 28, 12:23

Concept: < 1-3%, Development: 5-10%, Production: 60-70%, Wrap: 90-95%, Release: 99.9% ndmaster Jul 01, 11:05

That was a bad week to forget playing or misplayed derivatives. boohoo Jun 24, 22:15

Making money by first long, and then short. MitchC Jun 24, 16:21

Do you see a pattern here? ndmaster Jun 24, 18:05

Buy when the price goes up and sell when the price goes down? I think you're on to something... {nm} Nobody Jun 25, 09:46

EUREKA you have cracked the code. {nm} Randy Jun 25, 19:11

possible movies being made milomak Jun 22, 13:28

for me, the Movies board here is my first stop because people are posting stuff they find right away {nm} tealfan Jun 22, 14:02

Why can't see see purchase history for funds? {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 20, 11:17

the fund's holdings are there and number of shares...do you mean what the fund paid for them? {nm} tealfan Jun 20, 12:04

When I go to "trade history", I would like to know when I purchased the fund. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 20, 12:51

since it shows only the last 30 days, if you type the fund symbol into the trade history search it will tell you..... SEETVFund Jun 20, 13:57

It "appears" that trade history is not working for me. Oh well. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 21, 09:07

Some people are having a problem with it. Are you typing the security name in all caps? {nm} DTravel Jun 21, 10:27

No I wasn't, that is the solution and it is a simple fix for the program. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 21, 17:33

Just a call out to everyone. Make sure you have your shares of the all the funds! Don't let easy money pass on by! {nm} SEETVFund Jun 19, 17:05

I got'em...and even that SEETV Fund is up today!! {nm} Flash Jun 20, 08:51

ah good! haha yeah, it's been a good June so far. up 20M since the outage. {nm} SEETVFund Jun 20, 13:53

Smallest portfolios generally better invested in more promising short-term prospects, altho a fund could be suitable briefly at times{nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jun 20, 14:35

players moving 20-30 million+ shares/week-what are you trading that much? I do some day trades for fun but don't come anywhere near that {nm} forlorne Jun 19, 13:33

They trade some after reset to get others to move it further, then they flip. And flip again. And just for the heck of it flip again. {nm} DTravel Jun 19, 17:09

Weird non-Milestone: H$100,000+ daily interest DTravel Jun 18, 12:51

Billion {nm} ndmaster Jun 19, 15:53

Soon you won't know what to spend all your H$ on! :-) {nm} Flash Jun 19, 08:21

What is the name of the app that graphs the performance of a stock by clicking on Today's Change? GruntNoNeck Jun 14, 19:20

This one? http://theun4gven.com/hsx/daily.php?sec= {nm} MattW Jun 14, 20:15

That is it. Thanks Matt {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 15, 10:59

Well, that was the name but now I need the link for the download. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 15, 12:36

I'm not familiar with a download, just that site and add the movie stock on the end {nm} MattW Jun 15, 17:04

That gave me what I needed. There was a link to send an e-mail. {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 15, 19:53

This is weird. I am playing one port and maintaining another. I have un4gven in one but not the other. It must be a "flag" I have set in HSX {nm} GruntNoNeck Jun 16, 14:44

i don't know if this what you're looking for but..... SEETV Fund Jun 17, 13:48

This is exactly what I needed. Thank you. GruntNoNeck Jun 17, 18:01

no problem. I'm glad it was what you needed. {nm} SEETV Fund Jun 18, 13:28

TomAsta passed me :( MattW Jun 14, 17:16

Lots of effort and a little bit of luck. I will keep an eye out over my shoulder. {nm} TheTomAsta Jun 19, 18:50

Hey Flash... chipshot Jun 12, 14:50
