    What are the basics on measuring the risk of default in a crypto-collateralized portfolio?

    My Pattern Day Trading Journey

    Why trade trends and get whipsawed, trade the mean-reversion? But yeah, you are going thru what every one has gone thru...the initial awareness of your own irrational feelings coming into your trading.

    Hm, I'd be surprised if TOS doesn't give you just a spreadsheet of exits and entries. I know IBKR I can find it. Sorry your MSFT didn't work out today.

    Designing an automated market for crypto options as an exercise: Tips on Black-Scholes?

    Ah, yeah, hadn't even seen the whitepaper. While nascent, their discord does have the devs trying to answer questions... I think it's interesting; They will have different pools per expiry. The strikes within an expiry will share a base IV and each have their own individual "skew ratio"...

    Designing an automated market for crypto options as an exercise: Tips on Black-Scholes?

    Interesting, looks like these folks are looking to solve similar issues, although they leave it vague how they'll do it: https://blog.lyra.finance/introducing_lyra/ Taking market based supply/demand, then, "Institutional Grade Pricing Mechanism"...
