    Huh? study going around that claims ib fills suck

    I wrote software to test order fills at IB and TD. Identical orders were sent within less than 5 ms of each other. IB consistently got better fills that exceeded the commissions and exchange fees you pay at IB. That's just my experience. It's not a study. I've sent thousands of orders to IB...

    CPRX

    They are currently scoring on every number you'd like them to score on. Rising analyst estimates, rising earnings, beating earnings estimates, increasing revenues, stock price moving up, etc. Stocks with these characteristics have outperformed in years past. I currently have no position.

    'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sold all but one of his stocks last quarter

    Yes. The great majority of his investments have been long since the early 2000s. Good grief. The SEC filings are right there for you to see. Why are you doing this to yourself?

    'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sold all but one of his stocks last quarter

    No one did that. We were pointing out the things you said about him that are blatantly wrong.

    'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sold all but one of his stocks last quarter

    Ae you kidding me? Many, many sources easily found. But the book The Big Short by Michael Lewis is very well researched and is excellent. He goes into detail on Dr. Michael Burry.

    'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sold all but one of his stocks last quarter

    He is not a one off. Prior to his big subprime bet he returned over 250% to his investors at a time when the S&P 500 was down slightly. And how did Dr. Michael Burry get $600 million from investors to even do that? He had many other winning bets he gave you for free on his blog. People took...

    'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sold all but one of his stocks last quarter

    His portfolio was net long. How does that make him a perma bear?

    'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sold all but one of his stocks last quarter

    He did not do that. He filed a Form 13F as required by law.

    Some maths required...

    Assuming you mean "implied volatility" when you say IV then the answer is "no". Implied Volatility is determined in a market environment. We just look at what people are wiling to buy or sell an option for and then work backwards. "Volatility" is our guess at future volatility. An easy...

    Risk ON vs Risk OFF: tickers to follow

    You may have taken him to literal. "risk on" tends to mean market participants are generally in a more speculative mood and we see greater volatility and upside. "risk off" tends to mean less speculating and less volatility.

    New beginnings

    All that matters is your average return per trade and the standard deviation of those returns. I generate a full time income trading quantitatively. If you are willing to tell me more I'll give you my full analysis. But I fully understand if you want to keep this to yourself. Just send me a...

    Risk ON vs Risk OFF: tickers to follow

    It'll change over time. Instead of picking tickers design the right algorithm to identify risk-on stocks. This is the foundation of how I trade. When it's on like donkey kong you will then know what to buy to put the odds slightly in your favor.

    #bitcoin is all the @BlackRock community talks about!

    Blackrock has a track record of success. It would be foolish to quickly assume they are misguided about bitcoin. Just take it as another datapoint when deciding what you believe about bitcoin.

    did you know stock manipulation is legal ?

    We actually don't know what the trade volume was that day. You are only looking at volume from the exchanges and if you are looking at it on your broker's desktop software or website then many trade conditions will be filtered out. It's actually quite complicated. If you subscribe to market...

    Exxon...An example of income generation from covered calls

    This is why people do it and the reason people are able to sell books about how to do it. If you weren't too good at math or engineering then you simply don't know you are being fooled. The height of arrogance is thinking the math doesn't matter so long as you believe it doesn't matter...

    He described his call selling as an income stream. I did not presume anything.

    Exxon...An example of income generation from covered calls

    Of course it *can* be done. You can always walk up to a craps table and instantly roll double six. But you'd be a fool to bet on it. Or anything else at a craps table for that matter. You still have not told me WHO you think is paying you this apparent free money you have discovered. I'll...
