I trade the XSP all the time. Lower commissions than SPY. Get filled somewhere in the middle at the correct market price calculated by the Binominal option pricing model. I do very seldom execute at the bid or ask then not trading more complex structures.

Yes but most of what is going on there is reckless gambling what I can see. Most guys there does not understand or even know the concept of "risk". It do work out for them right now because it is a strong bull trend since march 2020. In a sideways consolidating market or down trend they will be...

Will try Collective2 and see how it goes. I've have a couple of clients that are buying subscriptions on Ebay. It would be more convenient for people to get the signals or do automatic copy-trading on Collective2. C2 takes a cut of monthly subscription fee so I make more money then my clients...

Guess their "hedge fund" made up of customers algo's failed to perform. A bit surprisingly. Implies there was no good algo's at all built there?

Did a vertical on trade setup on thursday previous week XSP C Nov04 +326/-327. Disappointed with shitty RR due to lousy entry. Spread cost me $60.60 per contract and paid out $39.40 net profit post comm. Believe a fly or ratio spread could improve RR.

On the weekly expire, what are the dates/times you are able to choose?

I'm back at it again. Dig myself down researching high probability statistical models for S&P 500. Will trade SPX/XSP verticals. Models predict close price to ~75-85% accuracy so the models should be able to make some dough if the backtested stats hold up.

Intraday doesn't cut it. I need the next day option on the day prior. The thing is that I trade a systematic quant model, and the chosen expiration day is fixed at +1 day, or +4 days or +6 days. That means if a signal is trigged on monday, I need the tuesday expiration on monday 5 minutes...

Doesn't OCC use the stocks regular market closing price then doing the settlement? check the option contracts details. The negative amount is only what is shown on your account until settlement is finished.

It's to help the economy, provide cheaper loans to businesses and citizens. The stock market may take it as a lack of confidence, but it is the correct thing to do by FED.

Volume is low for all new product offerings. It take time to build a user base. This is nothing strange.

Vertical credit spreads have worse RR ratio than vertical debit spreads. That is my experience then comparing both spreads side by side.

Doesn't matter. The question you should ask yourself is "am I fine with owning this asset in my portfolio for 5 years or longer?". If the answer is yes it is ok to to do a CSP trade. Then you sell cash-secured puts or naked puts the possibility exists that you may get assigned shares for a loss...

Do correlation analysis of universe of +100,000 international assets and sell short a asset that got 1:1 correlation with VTI. Monitor correlation daily that it doesn't start to diverge. Buy SPY for nominal amount.

Sell VTI futures net short for the amount of shares you own and buy SPY for the same nominal dollar amount.

Yep, there is no free lunch. Market orders get bad fills and limit orders may not get filled at all. A limit order at price X in another broker may get filled but the same limit order at RH may not.
