how to interpret volume: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=4219&m=47415#47415

This has turned into a tally of shares of Firefly stock held by fireflyfans. Add your shares and keep a running tally. I'll edit this first post occasionally throughout the day with the current total and do a once daily summary until the posts stop coming.

This is also an experiment for me in summarizing long posts and giving anchors throughout the thread.

original post:
I'm curious how many shares of FRFLY are actually held by us. The volume for FRFLY is currently at 1,451,481 shares (I think I'm interpreting this number right). The reason I'm curious is that the stock has dropped a little bit, which I think is indicative of some selling of shares. I know that none of us are selling our shares so I'm wondering what percentage of people trading FRFLY are not fireflyfans. I'm proposing a running tally.

SoupCatcher: 50,000
fireflyfans Total: 50,000
volume: 1,451,481 (as of 4pm pst) **

** editted to add: after further clarification (full post further down in this thread) this number reflects shares traded in the previous day, NOT total number of shares held. Sorry for the misunderstanding on my part.

SOUPCATCHER

So based on the numbers that poured in, it got me thinking that volume doesn't equal shares held. So I asked for some clarification and got the following responses.

Quote:
the "volume" noted for a particular stock is probably the amount of shares traded (bought, sold, shorted/covered) in the past hour or so. I'm not sure "how often" those figures are reflected. It could be within the past 24 hours...
I'm sure if that's wrong, or if it's a time period I don't know about, someone will correct it.

and

Quote:
there is no way to tell "how many" shares of a stock is "outstanding" since HSX's Virtual Bank can issue as many shares of a movie stock (bond, etc.) as is demanded.
This is not like the real stock market, where you can only buy a stock if someone is selling it.
You can go to Faaborg's Analyzer site and see some of the volumes, etc., for stocks, but you won't find "outstanding" shares held, etc.
The reason for this is, HSX sells the data it analyzes from demand of a certain movie stock, and if there was a limit to the amount of shares issued, then they couldn't "realistically" figure out the demand for a certain movie, star, etc.

Here's the Faaborg's page for Firefly,
http://analyze.faaborgs.net/stockInfo.asp?type=0&ticker=frfly

So based on that new information it seems my original request has turned into a fun exercise

with less value for analysis.

I got me my 50,000 shares.

The running total now stands at 723,349 shares bought up by us Browncoats. That's about half of the outstanding shares, so far.

Talk about manipulating the market

We need more Browncoats to join up and start buying!!
