The halts used to be on Saturdays years ago... which was nice....

Posted by: Flash on Jul 30, 07:46 in response to touchthekiwi's post Why are halts on Saturday? Shouldn't they be earlier?

You could log in...get the estimated #'s... and then sell off the openers if you bought them long. Back then, you could not short any securities...so if the movie did not do well... you could only sell before HSX halted... NOW we can even reverse the way you hold an opener which is nice.

I like Saturday halts, personally...

Why are halts on Saturday? Shouldn't they be earlier? {nm} touchthekiwi Jul 30, 02:37

They _should_ be. The .OW's are to make up for having moved the halts (in a bid for more Satruday player activity) {nm} edzep Jul 30, 06:40

ah, makes sense {nm} touchthekiwi Jul 30, 10:30
