I am VERY grateful for the answers you and others have provided, but people like yourself are starting to post less frequently and newbies are starting to start way to many threads asking the most basic questions. I enjoyed reading the discussions between pros, and it looks like that is starting...

I agree, the industry on selling garbage TA is out of hand, however it is very profitable (to sell mentorship) and to begin with, was the finance industry ever ethical?

also day trading 1 mil AAPL shares would not be a problem, AAPL trades 30 mil a day. and you would never be trading 1 mil shares of APPL shares with 100 mil any way. this thread is actually ridiculous to begin with.

huh? dude if you mange 100m you are not risking more than 5% per trade which is 5 mil and therefore you are not trading over 30k shares at one time.....AAPL trades that amount in 1 minute....... cmon bro you are being rediculous

Hey guys I am leaving ET, this site is becoming predominantly newbies with no trading experience and I would like to find a site where I can interact with professionals. Any ideas??

@traderGOD GTFO of here man, elite trader was a place to learn from proffesionals and contribute good questions. You and some other people are actually ruining this site.

@traderGOD you are driving me crazy with your posts. you are not a profitable trader and will not be with your basic mentality. Take your head out of the gutter and go learn who you are playing against. your posts are so basic and any 5th grader can answer them

+1 or work on your algos, i would buy your time off you but we are not advanced enoguh for me to do that yet....

If your stop is 90, you will get filled at market open if the stock opens at 80, for 80

but to answer the question, you will experience no change trading AAPL with 100k or 100mm

don't listen to this donkey above, first off, trading blue chips with a 100k account is being silly. Blue chips (IBM, GS, SPY, MSFT, AAPL) is liquid enough for a billion dollar fund to move markets only slightly. You have mentioned the most liquid markets and will experience almost no change -...

dear all, Here are some inefficiencies i have found: leaps against bimodal companies, buying SOME earnings 3 weeks in advance for free gamma, as well as buying cheap vol on companies that have upcoming problems.... my question is should i sell this off by opening a mentorship? I have just under...

Looks to me like there is alpha in trading long/short straddles across earnings. With some statistical work you can put on positive EV trades. MZOR was quoting a 9% implied move. The thing has never moved more than 8% in the last 20 quarters. I am Not saying it can't move 15% it's all about the...

If the alpha is there you can make LOTS of money

He manages over 100 billion dollars. There must be a few things he is doing right. Watch his videos and listen to his annual meetings on his website.

I think this thread does a great job at demonstrating our psychology as human beings. Although AAPL is statistically more likely to win ( only needs to rally 7%) we like to go with the stock that has all the momentum (AMZN) needs (31%).

It is not linear. There are many factors to consider: Has the implied vol changed? Has realized vol changed? Time has most definitely changed, so how does that effect the 95% moneyness option? Has Skew changed? Options are convex, prices change as time, the underlying and volatility change.

Your posts are always insightful

That was what i was trying to figure out because it was not making sense to me!!. Kevin did a good job of explaining it a few posts back after ridiculing me.
