[question] Hollywood Stock Exchange

Are there any members that are part of HSX ( http://www.hsx.com )?

What is your Username? Mine is "wizArd" without quotes. wizard was already taken <_< .

For those of you who are losers (joking!) and don't know what I am talking about, it is a mock stock market for the movie industry. You can buy stocks in movies, actors/actresses and directors and funds in film companies and film genres. Also, before a movie comes out, they have a Put/Call of how much a movie earns (Put = More than, Call = Less than). They have a few more options that take a while to discribe. It's really fun once you get into it.

i optioned the next harry potter, has to beat 250m by labor day, should do that in a heartbeat.

I was tricked into signing up for it by a friend, so I 'invested' everything in A-Team, The Movie.

#163809

I'm in it. XTaCRebelCrash is my un.

I'm not holding too much and well this week was a b***h because of TROY.

@Wizard - Your soul caliber has been going down in the dumps. I hope you've been shorting it.

I remeber when I first saw that show. New Years Eve two years ago. I am pretty sure I din't drink that night, but for some reason, they is a blackout in my mind when I was watching it :blink: .

I don't cash out until I break even. ;)

Actually, I just invested in it only a couple of days ago. My biggest loss has been Max Payne, lost 26%
