A method/model that exploit a market edge to make high returns indefinitely. What to do then old? continue trading I guess as trading only takes a few minutes of time per week/month.

Use the realtime modeled price from the Binomial pricing model. That is the real price. Bid, Ask and the Midpoint is not to be trusted.

Build an AI/ML platform that you can tell vocally what you want and it will do it for you. Like "I want you to test all SMA 200 and SMA 50 crossovers in daily resolution for stock Apple 20 years back in time. Then you are done, e-mail me the report". Something like that would be nice. Not...

Have used vertical debit spreads to setup 1:1 binary trade plays. I found credit spreads is no good as they usually does not give you an 1:1 ratio but more like 1.5:1 or 2:1, ie risk side is heavier than the profit side.

I know Goldman Sachs and Bloomberg is heavy users of Kubernetes. I work in IT and it's very attractive for enterprises and businesses. It give you resiliency, failover, self-healing, horisontal scalabillity, etc. all for free in one package. Old legacy code are supported. Even ancient COBOL...

The operating system for the data center. It avoids cloud vendor lock-in as it builds a vendor-neutral layer on top of the cloud vendors infrastructure. It's allow you to move work loads between cloud's and give you a better seat and power to negotiate prices with the different vendors. You...

Should be doable with an OTM Put. I made 800% in two hours previous week. During Wednesday SPY was trading at 311.5 and I bought the Put expiring the same day at strike 311.5 for 0.25 and 30 min later SPY started to plunge towards 309. My Put was trading at 2.4 at the highest price. x3 should...

Yes I am shedding pounds. I'm consciously on reduced fat intake as I want to get rid of eleven pounds of overweight. Currently I'm shedding around two pounds a week. Then I reach my target weight I will increase both amount of food and fat to stabilize my weight.

Does skipping breakfast count as intermittent fasting? I do that most days. I don't eat anything between 8-9pm to lunch at 12am next day which is like 15-16 hours without any food. I didn't lose any weight with this, maybe because it leads to me eating more food during other hours, so total...

What is the weekly rental cost of yacht like these? Maybe more economic to rent one for a few weeks a year than to own one. If you own and are able rent it out during the year to earn income it may make sense to own one.

I solve this by swing trading broad indexes like S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100. The more constituents an index got the more cushion. I don't expect a larger gap than 4% to open print, so if the trade is sized correctly the damage is contained within 1-15% depending where one sets his own risk mandate.

Making a joke is not the same as being a asshole, there is a distinction. Women too can make jokes both about sex and men.

In today's politically correct bullshit society one can not make any jokes about sex, or the other gender, etc. You may lose your job or customers. If it where said publicaly in the 60's, 70's, 80's no one would care.

An side question. Does any US broker accept VISA/Mastercard debit/credit card deposits? I would like to save monthly for my kids and put in smaller amounts regualy to their brokerage account. An international wire is like $35 so if I transfer monthly it eats up a good part of their savings.

Yes you have to wait for clearing to go trough before you may make the next trade. You can work around this by having multiple brokerage accounts and treat them as one virtual account. With four Cash or Reg-T accounts you can make 4x the allowed trades.

I "believe" successful methods are often contrarian in them self towards the majority. Smart money load up against majority order flow to position them self early on the trend reversal. And the reverse, distributing their position against majority order flow to exit or initiate trades in...

Have decided to move using credit spreads instead as commissions are eating into profit to much due to small trade size, at least as long as account equity remain tiny. OCC settlement is free so I will make a little extra on better exit price and avoid paying to close the position . This will...

Maybe the majority does the same. If a instrument has five different possible outcomes, sure majority will be betting on a few of these, does it really matter. Sometimes the probable outcome will win, sometimes it will not. You do your analysis that you are confident in that tilt the odds in...

You do it by correctly calling what the underlying will do in X amount of time? a) sharply up b) slightly up c) sideways d) slightly down e) sharply down You can structure a options position to win if one or multiple of these are true or not true. There is one or more option positions that fit...
