As a stock replacement, I prefer to look at the options with about a 70 delta. There is no science behind my preference. Even in liquid options like SPY/AAPL, you will still have to work your order vs market orders to get fair price discovery and keep you entry and exit prices from eating cost.

Look, it not impossible. Can’t hurt to apply. The reality is these prop firms want fresh, smart students right out of top schools with more than basic math and programming skills. They have a selective process for choosing summer interns. From the summer interns, they take the best and the...

SIG also fines value is professional poker players because they have learned logic and Odds.

There are two types. One were your money is first loss and one where they back your trading with their capital. The ones where your money is first loss, well they allow just about anyone to join. You only make money if you make money. The ones where they back you are looking for those with...

It is best to write down a set of rules to trade by. Read them out loud before you enter your first trade every day and have them right in front of you all day.

Because if you're risk too much of your trading capital on each trade, you will set stops that are to short, trade out of good set ups too soon, and run out of funds faster. Then you get issues with those that have too much money. They have no fear, never exit when they should and do not...

I would say that any internal card that moves Video calculation away from the CPU is better than using the CPU.
