Peter, I'm having that very sad "Noooooo" feeling when I start reading the last chapter of a really enjoyable book. I'm so sad to see the end coming. This has been a great read, and yours, a great story. I'm looking forward to the Epilogue to catch up on what has happened since. Well done...

Hi @peterkto I figure most people will figure this out, but in case anyone is having trouble, the link needs a leading "h" to get to https://churningandburning.com/2023/11/the-pot-stocks.html I'm looking forward to reading this next post, @peterkto! Your story is interesting and well written...

I think this concept of 0 DTE options growth causing a "Volmaggedon" is something that's getting too many turns in the press, but doesn't really have much merit that I can see, except for hype and clicks. @ETJ 's post with an article shows that 95% of the SPX 0 DTE trading growth has been...

Hi SPT, I wanted to offer a couple of thoughts about your questions and offer some ways to think about your questions from a different perspective. Scalping 4 ticks in the ES with a 4 tick stop is possible, but I think you'll find over the long term your profits will be either so razor thin...

Yep! That was the one. I know the score was a bit lopsided, but for my first game, it was just incredible to watch! The crowd was really fired up, and it was really a lot of fun.

I saw a great Australian Football League game today. Very impressive! I am looking forward to the warmer weather in Cairns tomorrow.

Hello fellow ET'ers, I'm traveling in Australia for the next two weeks. While walking in Sydney a few days ago, I saw the Exchange bldg on Market Street, and I was wondering if there's anything to see. Looks like there might be an auditorium with escalators leading downstairs...

http://www.linkedin.com It's free to join and participate. Not nearly as time consuming as Facebook. It has more of a business/professional focus. http://www.linkedin.com/in/davenadeau; I'll be happy to connect. You can see some of the groups I'm referring to on my profile.

Hi Sammy, If you have an account on LinkedIn, you should look through some of the groups there (e.g. High Frequency Trading, Algorithmic Trading, Electronic Trading, etc.) as there are job postings, some with pay and bonus, but more importantly, there are other IT career and skill sets (and...
