risk/reward thoughts

Posted by: Neilthor on Aug 06, 11:55

I would like to see more risk/reward at HSX. In earlier days, the markets were mostly like penny stocks. You could research but in the end the losses and gains were a lot riskier but much more exciting 

A return to a Friday halt Sunday morning adjustment would help. Perhaps change the multiple from 2.7 to 2.5 or 2.9 when Seasons call for it. 

Blockbuster Warrants do not appear to carry any risk at all anymore.  They seem to be nothing more than low risk/high reward  savings accounts. I really think they should be set to open higher [i.e. todays Apes set at $150 perhaps] or sold earlier [i.e., same example but sold on opening day at $130]

What do you all think?

I agree, I would go even further and halt everything from Wednesday which is when the first estimates appear {nm} latafilms Aug 06, 12:16

Are you saying the game is too easy? {nm} JonHH Aug 06, 12:52

yes, when you already see the estimates, its just not fun to bet knowing the aprox numbers. Better halt tuesday or wednesday morning. latafilms Aug 06, 17:25

Something high risk would be fun. Also, separate suggestion: ipos cost a % of net worth,10%?, then everyone could afford max islander Aug 06, 12:53

On that separate suggestion: Personally, I'd just stop playing as I wouldn't bother buying IPOs altogether. {nm} -JPV- Aug 06, 13:07

In all seriousness, maybe I'm misreading islander's suggestion there. 10% of one's net worth for an IPO? -JPV- Aug 06, 15:19

Just a harmless suggestion. {nm} islander Aug 06, 15:22

Just stood out as an insane amount, lol. But like I said, halt and adjust? Ok w/ that, just don't hold your breath it will ever return. {nm} -JPV- Aug 06, 15:25

3.125%? {nm} islander Aug 06, 15:34

You said 10%. Again, maybe I misread it... {nm} -JPV- Aug 06, 15:41

*10% of net worth. {nm} -JPV- Aug 06, 15:42

I think that's supposed to be a joke on the old 312.50 price {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 16:24

Ok. *shrug* {nm} -JPV- Aug 06, 16:47

I'm for anything that rewards more for investing in the correct movie rather than who can adjust to actual results the quickest. {nm} PhoneHome Aug 06, 18:05

I don't know all the systems/methods the monster ports use, but I know trading millions of shares a day is not about accurate projections PhoneHome Aug 06, 18:21

I love the game and I don't do any of the things you just listed in your last comment. bennyg1985 Aug 07, 07:39

Not everyone with a large port plays like that. {nm} DTravel Aug 07, 09:41
