    skew locks

    I lost 18% after 9/11. Took me six months to recover. My skew and switch lock positions are risk off but have delta1 leverage upside. It doesn’t have leveraged downside, but it is still long vol but PNL terminates at the bear tail, which usually is a small debit risk or a small credit earned...

    Will Powell bust a move tomorrow?

    lol dude is long from 4400. Did we miss something? Was this a trade reco? If mkt had dropped you would've have shown up in your time machine to tell us that you had conveniently shorted 5 mins before the rate decision. You are such a fraud.

    What Do Hedge Funds Think of Technical Analysis?

    Nobody can hit the mkt with 10K offered mkt and think they won't sweep the book. No, there is not unlimited liquidity at a price. That doesn't define capacity. I don't understand how this relates to applying stochastics or whatever to the markets. Analytical method has nothing to do with ability...

    What Do Hedge Funds Think of Technical Analysis?

    Cohen at SAC was trading something like 20K ES trips a day as a hobby. No, you're never going to have capacity issues in index futs.

    What Do Hedge Funds Think of Technical Analysis?

    HF don't avoid TA bc of capacity issues. Anyone here with the ability to backtest can provide a working method and the only certainty is that it's curve-fitted. If you make money solely from TA then it's either 1) beta or 2) you are discretionary and your subconscious is better at pattern reco...

    skew locks

    Something, something, thingy. This account has about 1.2MM in it as I use it for cash trading and futures ops (SPAN and RegT). I have a PM account held with my wife for TIMS. I mention it bc I had tail risk of about $4K as I am long vol throughout the curve. I bot puts so my tail risk is above...

    Feb 1, 2023 FOMC Meeting: To Hike or Not to Hike?

    lol so which is it? Clown shoes. Powell signaled rates are independent of labor. That's a pivot.

    skew locks

    Pivot is in. Rate moves (somewhat) independent of labor mkt. Up 4% on the day (all skew/switch locks). If you can't see it then you're in the wrong biz.

    Are there advantages to selling calls at several strike prices?

    Read infinite gamma, by MsDawn of Troy. In it you'll find various Cauchy distributions printed upside down.
