Playing & Trading Strategy

I reached a billion earlier today. HNIF Apr 29, 16:59

I tried just taking a break and couldn't even do that...lol...congrats! {nm} tealfan Apr 29, 17:13

Thanks! I won't have a problem with coming. I just sold all of my shares, except for one share of IT: Chapter 2, that I bought for the lulz. HNIF Apr 29, 21:19

... MitchC Apr 29, 17:57

Nice milestone... {nm} Flash Apr 29, 18:03

It's a Bingo! {nm} ndmaster Apr 29, 18:57

Well done! {nm} tatoufan Apr 30, 03:22

Nice... {nm} Choray911 Apr 30, 06:30

Congrats {nm} cj19 Apr 30, 16:08

I figure this delay in cashing out OWs is due to the HSX banker still knocking some doors to gather such a pile of cash! XD {nm} fwerner Apr 29, 16:12

It's easier for Dmac to do it than it is for The Fed to in real life. ndmaster Apr 29, 16:25

After today's adjust, the Opening Weekend Fund might hit 100M. It's going to be close... tatoufan Apr 29, 13:43

Yay! {nm} Steved1998 May 04, 16:47

Bonds only port update #2 NVT_vs_bonds Apr 23, 18:56

lol MattW Apr 24, 11:37

Milestone: Less than 5-month old port +100% YTD! {More-->} NeilSite_VanThomas Apr 23, 08:34

Good job, keep it up {nm} JustSayin Apr 23, 11:06

Keep hitting that classic cash and you can will make it. {nm} AJRimmer Apr 23, 11:30

Probably the majority of his gains are from CC {nm} ndmaster Apr 23, 18:21

Oh for sure trading half-assed would result with faster gains then he has achieved. {nm} AJRimmer Apr 24, 04:32

Exactly I put very little effort into my port and blew by him {nm} hotsambatcho Apr 24, 07:59

good one thanks for the laugh today I needed it. {nm} hotsambatcho Apr 23, 17:08

Yay! ndmaster Apr 23, 18:20

Your trolling game is weak. {nm} JohnSherman Apr 26, 18:58

I think he's serious. {nm} ndmaster Apr 27, 08:56

You may have escaped me for now but I will get you, my pretty, and your little dog Tat too! *cackles* {nm} DTravel Apr 19, 13:38

Lol, it took me a bit of work to get my port to take off again after my break last year. You're still within reach. {nm} tatoufan Apr 23, 08:34

Does someone know how a release like Endgame typically affects the multipliers of movies opening just before & after it? {nm} forlorne Apr 17, 13:39

huh...I don't think anyone's ever looked into that...that I know of {nm} tealfan Apr 17, 17:25

It doesn't. It has been said on here many times before. ndmaster Apr 17, 17:38

No, I was just thinking of all the screens it will be taking up . {nm} forlorne Apr 18, 06:21

It's more like " "Avengers Endgame is in theaters next week, so I'm not going to see XYZ movie this weekend" {nm} Antibody Apr 18, 09:00

Here's the box office chart for STAR7's opening weekend RogerMore Apr 18, 09:06

AVNG3 doesn't seem to have near the effect I thought it might. Deadpool still had >2X OW, Overboard nearly 3X, Book club >4X forlorne Apr 18, 11:53

I think a lot of the screens AVNG4 and similarly hyped blockbusters would dominate are the premium ones. There are plenty of screens to go RogerMore Apr 18, 12:38

It looks like the big impact is on movies that open the same weekend, which won't apply for AVNG4 TheDowIsUp Apr 18, 12:27

I'd expect them all to have that kind of multiplier because of the time of year they are released, with or without a Star Wars movie. RogerMore Apr 18, 13:01

Thank you for your insights and data {nm} forlorne Apr 22, 08:19

The biggest impact could be on the weekend box office the week tickets go on sale... Silverblue76 Apr 19, 12:02

ERC: In the wake of AVNG4: ...outside of Disney, rival studios' films in the Top 10 dropped an average of -68% this weekend. tatoufan Apr 29, 10:37

I am back. I just check my hsx porfolio. I am worth 4 billion dollars {nm} mike255 Apr 11, 09:08

any news on when the new BONDS fund lists? it's been a little while .. pacrat Apr 10, 08:10

Soon Grasshopper....between family illness and trips that involve Europe and perhaps no HSX, we are on hold. {nm} BONDS xXx Apr 10, 20:14

Live long and prosper, Mr. Bonds.. :-) {nm} Flash Apr 11, 09:43

For my birthday I'm paintballing a bullseye on the back of my next target! DTravel Apr 06, 21:46

"I know what it’s like to lose. To feel so desperately that you’re right, yet to fail nonetheless. Dread it. Run from it... tatoufan Apr 10, 05:03

Hmmmm, can I pass Neilthor AND tatoufan at the same time? Find out next week! Same HSX time, same HSX channel! DTravel Apr 10, 13:19

Plenty of good days ahead, Cheers! {nm} tatoufan Apr 10, 18:15

Passed one of you yesterday. {nm} DTravel Apr 11, 12:12

Endgame .OW set at H$255. That's pretty spicy stuff right there {nm} MattW Apr 01, 18:13

Bumped up to 260 today {nm} MattW Apr 02, 17:00

What difference is 5 bucks going to make on 255? {nm} GruntNoNeck Apr 03, 10:34

1.96078431373% {nm} ndmaster Apr 03, 21:20

Only 11 decimal places? {nm} GruntNoNeck Apr 04, 08:44

That's as far as my calculator on my computer went...I thought it was pretty decent. {nm} ndmaster Apr 05, 16:25

Must use a MAC. {nm} GruntNoNeck Apr 06, 14:48

checked in after several year absence...turns out I bought SHAZM at 41 cents! {nm} forlorne Apr 01, 11:24

On the other hand, I shorted Brie Larson at $41... {nm} forlorne Apr 01, 11:26

I bought it at $4.78. I'm a very happy player right now. {nm} JonaBurns Apr 05, 08:48

I got it for a nickel! Easily the best purchase I've made here. {nm} thoughtbubble Apr 12, 07:06

Been gone for a while, why can't I see the history graphs for, well, anything? Decoman Mar 27, 07:34

close...need to enable Flash :) {nm} tealfan Mar 27, 09:19

Yep, that did it. You rock. {nm} Decoman Mar 28, 08:05

I'm enabled!! :-) {nm} Flash Mar 28, 09:08

we're all Flash's enablers {nm} tealfan Mar 28, 09:30

Except me, I don't want him catching up. {nm} DTravel Mar 28, 12:18

Slow down. :-) {nm} Flash Mar 29, 08:38

I have this this week. {nm} DTravel Mar 29, 13:37

Take the next year or so off... :-) {nm} Flash Mar 30, 12:47

Don't fire Danielle Panabaker. {nm} DTravel Apr 02, 12:18

Crush?? :-) {nm} Flash Apr 03, 09:05

Easier on my eyes than Candace Patton. :) {nm} DTravel Apr 03, 12:42

I miss Patty. {nm} RazorHawk Apr 04, 16:31

HSX going mobile? fwerner Mar 26, 13:18

The first person who starts singing 'On The Road Again' gets whacked!! DTravel Mar 26, 15:12

LOL {nm} fwerner Mar 27, 13:42

An app would be excellent, I think to NOT have this available on mobile in 2019 hurts the game overall. [nm] Decoman Mar 27, 07:31

Fixing the "reset rocketeer" problem seems more important than developing an app, although app wouldn't hurt {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Mar 27, 10:33

Absolutely! Never saw any mention of the topic or request in these forums though {nm} fwerner Mar 27, 13:45

I've seen it asked about a few times over the years. Doesn't appear there are any plans for it though. {nm} DTravel Mar 27, 16:12

*Taps Moviesnob on the shoulder* Excuse me. Hi, coming thru. DTravel Mar 22, 11:46

<gets out of the way> {nm} Moviesnob Mar 22, 13:27

Ha! Okay, that's a response I wasn't expecting. :P {nm} DTravel Mar 22, 13:32

I liquidated my port and havent traded in 4 years :-P {nm} Moviesnob Mar 22, 20:00

Spoilsport. {nm} DTravel Mar 22, 20:17

Slow down. Speed trap ahead! {nm} Catzan Mar 30, 14:03

well im at $275m portfolio value... jaymel Mar 22, 09:38

Onward and upward! {nm} Flash Mar 22, 09:53

Keep on keepin' on. {nm} GruntNoNeck Mar 23, 17:28

Big Spring jump today Seattlezoid Mar 20, 19:25

The Green Bird of HSX Happiness? {nm} DTravel Mar 20, 20:30

Actually, I'm in the red today...so much for the spring "bump." :-) {nm} Flash Mar 21, 13:22

That's just your port matching the color of your suit. :D {nm} DTravel Mar 21, 16:46

Hmm...hadn't thought of that one! :-) {nm} Flash Mar 22, 09:52

A broad, across the board sell-off today. Why? berndog62 Mar 22, 12:23

People jumping on the band wagon that reset traders started plus the usual slow bleeders. {nm} DTravel Mar 22, 16:33

Delta House Pledge Class (tips for freshmen from the brothers of Delta Tau Chi) -- Vol. 1: Playing the Players SenJohnBlutarsky Mar 20, 06:49

Good advice for noobies. Thanks {nm} GruntNoNeck Mar 20, 10:54

How proficient are you at the game? What is your strategy? ndmaster Mar 17, 21:32

I started off years ago buying every superhero movie stock when they were all cheap Catface Mar 19, 14:30

Congrats {nm} cj19 Mar 12, 20:08

Congrats on the Milestone {nm} Randy Mar 13, 11:33

get a screenshot for posterity's sake ! :) {nm} pacrat Mar 13, 16:35

I do that too! {nm} tealfan Mar 14, 12:13

on several occasions, when i've had a particularly good day (such as really good star bond adjusts), I've saved screenshots {nm} pacrat Mar 16, 16:42

You have my favorite username on HSX. {nm} ndmaster Mar 13, 20:12

Thank you, ndmaster {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Mar 17, 13:27

This one, not so much. ndmaster Mar 17, 21:34
