What needs to be calculated? The opening weekend gains IS the price adjusted. They are all listed under derivatives.

Posted by: PVL Admin (a.k.a Rocket123) on Feb 06, 08:00 in response to Telly's post Yes, but there is no calculations there...

So if a movie opens with 10 mil, the OW stock cashes out at 10.00.  No math. 

What's the calculation for OW's and where do I find them? Thanks, OW is new to me. {nm} Telly Feb 06, 05:47

Great, that is what I did not know and it's not explained under the OW's, so there you go. Thanks. {nm} Telly Feb 06, 09:17

"The price of an Opening Weekend Warrant is based on the weekend box office" {nm} Antibody Feb 06, 10:16

"based on" could mean anything! For a new player how does that explain the gross of $25mil means it's $25 stock price? That's a formula. {nm} Telly Feb 06, 11:45

BTW, My question was valid as stocks are normally calculated, i.e. 2.7 multiplier. How was I supposed to know OW's Telly Feb 06, 09:19

Look at any one of them and show me where it says the value is equal to the BO of that weekend., i.e. $10 = $10 mil. {nm} Telly Feb 06, 11:38

And "based on" does not mean equate to. The blurb on OW pages does not articulate how it's calculated. {nm} Telly Feb 06, 11:41

No, it does not. It simply says it's "based on" the weekend gross, which tells a new player nothing. Explaining the formula would work bette {nm} Telly Feb 06, 11:43

The OW Formula for Adjust can be found on the Market Calendar. (See Inside). RotoHockeyYTD2014 Feb 06, 15:10

thanks for weighing in with the answer to a question that wasn't asked {nm} lapuckfan Feb 06, 15:25

OWs halt on Fridays, not Saturdays (as you posted). {nm} RazorHawk Feb 06, 15:53

Hey look, someone actually answered the question and wasn't smug about it. THANKS. :) {nm} Telly Feb 06, 20:00

This question was answered at 8 am today... Why are we still talking about it, or in some cases, trying to answer it again? {nm} PVL Admin Feb 06, 17:59

because the only person in this thread who answered it was Rotohockey. {nm} Telly Feb 07, 08:54

So your confrmation at 9:17 was what? Well, I guess if you want help next time I won't take the time... {nm} PVL Admin Feb 07, 11:09

The rest of the thread was about the calculations not being listed where some posters said it was... Telly Feb 07, 12:51

Will be Happy to Answer any other Questions that you may have. Happy Trading. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2014 Feb 07, 14:58
