Complete Roller Coaster MitchC Apr 24, 07:26

Mitch, this is exactly what I've been talking about! NeilSite Apr 24, 10:14

Just like a roller coaster, the pattern becomes perdictable over time. {nm} Wellespring Apr 24, 10:34

Well said {nm} parthm_ Apr 24, 10:40

^predictable {nm} Wellespring Apr 24, 11:17

Predictable by whom? Those that are setting the trend? Re-read your response and think for a long time before responding. {nm} NeilSite Apr 24, 18:25

You seem to be the only one surprised or perturbed by this, so I'd guess it was predictable for everyone besides you. {nm} parthm_ Apr 24, 20:08

...here is an example of Neil *talking* again... talk, talk, talk, talk {nm} RazorHawk Apr 25, 06:10

IRISH has been steadily dropping because it is a Netflix movie. It will almost certainly delist at H$0, parthm_ Apr 24, 10:39

Maybe like myself people invest in the Saturday IPO for a few days and then start profit taking. {nm} blaze223 Apr 24, 11:30

Most would call it a trend and follow it for profit. {nm} AJRimmer Apr 24, 11:56

You do too much talking and do not do too much listening... RazorHawk Apr 24, 12:12

Antibody (and anyone else): Please notice the difference in response between RazorHawk & myself... NeilSite Apr 24, 17:48

The difference is his include logic and reasoning whereas you posts do not {nm} AJRimmer Apr 24, 17:56

Wow...so, where is this "help" I'm allegedly refusing to receive? (Again, another rude post & unsolicited I might add) {nm} NeilSite Apr 24, 18:17

Oh, brother...It's time to hang it up! (You did however link the best one-->) NeilSite Apr 24, 22:56

You were passing mostly inactive ports. You will not pass active ports if you are only making interest + cash from games. You were parthm_ Apr 25, 05:11

Once again you show you don't listen - current share holdings have NOTHING to do with price movement. Stocks move up when buy or cover, JDolphin Apr 24, 14:05

When did I say I was "trading on yesterday's movement"? On the contrary, I don't think YOU listen... NeilSite Apr 24, 18:22

Yep - it's everyone elses fault but yours. You don't want to listen to anything that doesn't fit your narrative. Sorry I got involved again {nm} JDolphin Apr 24, 20:12

Goodbye! {nm} JDolphin Apr 24, 20:12

You are spending too much energy on the wrong part of the game... in order to make profits you need to invest in more stocks and bonds. {nm} RazorHawk Apr 16, 10:49

And...the cyber-bullying towards me continues! NeilSite Apr 16, 20:29

you had multiple accounts doing coordinated trading; you impersonated me on the boards; your other accounts have been muted or deleted {nm} RazorHawk Apr 16, 21:24

And I was punished for all of that...but how come RotoHockey hasn't been punished for his multiple accounts? NeilSite Apr 17, 07:00

great... you are willing to put it past you... RazorHawk Apr 17, 09:04

It's not cyberbullying; he gave you advice and did so without once insulting you. parthm_ Apr 17, 05:59

Please just consider how much I've made in the last 12 hours via HSX games vs. trades... NeilSite Apr 17, 07:12

You're doing it wrong JohnSherman Apr 17, 07:35

This was how he was "cyber-bully" before... people tried to correct him and he got mean about it... RazorHawk Apr 17, 08:58

You made H$80k today. Good for you. I made H$1.7m today due to StarBond adjusts. Doesn't take a genius to figure out whose strategy worked parthm_ Apr 17, 10:52

That's not cyberbullying. So you were insincere in your apology and I'm regretting unblockng you. {nm} Antibody Apr 17, 09:41

Antibody: What have I posted on this forum that shows insincerity? (Please read) NeilSite Apr 17, 10:17

You didn't choose to stay on the sidelines, you were banned. You're playing the victim and blaming others again, when you're the problem. Antibody Apr 17, 10:56

A dumb answer: 'Yes, I should short the call or put associated with a H$210 opener' DTXbro Apr 11, 09:59

I shorted the put and bought the call and the opening weekend derivative. Agreed, little risk. {nm} steamboat2302 Apr 12, 07:36

If you shorted AVNG2.PU at H$2, you would've lost over H$217,000. {nm} Antibody Apr 12, 12:56

AVNG2.PU didn't have the record amount of reserved pre ordered tickets a month before it came out. My expectation is 230. {nm} steamboat23 Apr 14, 09:37

In short... I'm covering the put before the end I expect it to delist at 0 {nm} steamboat23 Apr 14, 09:41

fwiw, AVNG2 presales is only beating other superhero films, the highest of which is AVNGR's $207M. {nm} Antibody Apr 16, 09:47

It has yet to pass the presale records of the Star Wars sequels. {nm} Antibody Apr 16, 09:49

Glad to compete against that thinking, much as I am grateful my children get to compete economically with Trump supporters {nm} DTXbro Apr 12, 18:01

May be a dumb question? kingddp1973 Apr 10, 18:28

Cover the shares. It's "buy/sell" and "short/cover". {nm} MattW Apr 10, 18:40

Thanks, I knew there was an easy answer {nm} kingddp1973 Apr 10, 19:22

what does cover/short do exactly ? {nm} MadThor Apr 16, 14:24

If you think a stock/bond is going to go down then you short it. When you want to get rid of it, you cover. {nm} JDolphin Apr 16, 16:27

*thought* (it would be nice) {nm} NeilSite Apr 10, 09:22

My guess is there is no correct pick. After you choose one of the options the site does a random 7 sided dice roll for whether you win {nm} MattW Apr 10, 11:29

There actually is a correct pick in each batch. {nm} RazorHawk Apr 11, 01:05

Meaning the correct pick for everyone today is Dial M for Murder? I kind of doubt it works that way, too easy to game the system {nm} MattW Apr 13, 08:20

I happen to know that it's not the same pick everyday... NeilSite Apr 14, 22:06

How do you know this? {nm} Wellespring Apr 16, 17:35

Well, how do you think one would know this for certain? NeilSite Apr 16, 20:52

I never pick a poster, just the same position every day. Win about every 6 to 8 days but have won two days in a row. {nm} Novelist Apr 21, 23:55
