That is complete and utter nonsense. The lowest volatility periods have historically tended to be those with no discernable trend. Conversely, the highest periods of volatility have come during extremely violent trends.

That is a nonsensical statement. *Anything* that uses moving averages lags the actual market, by definition.

Anything calculating an average is lagging, by definition.

Nope.

Couldn't agree more. A real iceberg of a statement - ten times as much truth hidden under the surface as is revealed above.

That seems a strange conclusion to come to. Seems more likely that people simply don't see their basic needs going unmet if they can't get cash out of the bank. While that is obviously completely unlike the typical American situation, it is, nevertheless, a good situation to be in.

For me, I'd have to be convinced the person is actually a trader. And by that I don't mean someone who "trades", I mean someone who's actual livelihood depends on their trading income. Which begs the question of why they need to generat income from what is basically a newsletter, but whatever...

They weren't offering algos, they were offering an API to access market data. Nobody does that for free, nor should they be expected to.

I'm not sure parking orders is going to be all that desirable. You park 10k (or etc) limit order @ -5%, the stock drops, you get hit for one lot, the band immediately resets to -5% from where your order is sitting and bam! your order remnant is providing liquidity on a stock that's ripping right...

What is GS's relationship with Pico? I've heard one side of the story, I'm curious about the other.

Ah, alright then. Monday red/flat, Tuesday green. Make of it what you will.

No, it didn't. It showed up in our measurements then, but that is not the same thing. Inflation was coming up hard, which is what forced the BW rearrangement to begin with. You seem to have a strong and consistent tendency to confuse cause and effect.

Would I lend someone - anyone - money to try? No. Therefore, not realistic.

Bretton Woods didn't unleash anything, it simply acknowledged what was already happening.

So...you want people to post worthless predictions...? Why - so "we" can mock them for being wrong so often? I must be missing something.
