Why in the world would any Hedgefund want to locate in Modesto, when they could be anywhere they wanted? Good luck with your search, but I highly doubt that you will find anything trading or investment related around there. Try a more desirable location if you can.

Not quite sure that I follow your math here. You stated that returns over 15% per annum would be paid at 50%. So, for your example, if a manager returns 20% (2M), what they would actually make is (1.5M*20%) + (.5M*50%)= $550k. Better than the $400k with a typical 20% incentive (although you...

Don, Actually the need to register with the SEC, which was at $25m, was overturned earlier this year and many funds that registered have now actually de-registered. The courts decided that the SEC was overstepping their bounds. Cheers

Penson is a large clearer that clears for many prop groups. I don't believe that they they run an internal prop desk. I know that they are very competitive on equitites pricing for groups that do volume. They are an American based company with some international subs. Best to do your own...

LOL.....must of really hit up the rib festival:p

I, for one, would certainly be very interested in it, Bolter! Your last thread on Market Profile is one of the best threads on ET. Cheers

You are correct with the futs settlements, Rally! SET $VIX Opening Prior Day Close JULY: 17.01 17.62 17.74 JUNE: 17.29 16.67 16.69 MAY: 14.03 13.83 13.35 APRIL: 11.94 11.52 11.40 MARCH: 11.15 11.71 11.62\ Not sure that this shows much of...

I think that would work for the quarterly sets, as the futs and index converge, but not sure about the other months. Good find, though!

Thanks guys. I emailed the cboe, but if anyone has the past few vro values, please share. If I hear anything back from them, I will post any info here.

Pipepuller, Where did you find the Jul VRO value? I can't find any of the settlement values from the cboe website. You would think that they would be included here: http://www.cboe.com/data/Settlement.aspx but they are not. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure Cramer could always get a job as a stunt double for Lucky Louie :D http://www.hbo.com/luckylouie/cast/character/louie.html

I rember this being the reason that you were going to stay away from fx for awhile. Have implied vols picked up, or are you going to be looking at more touches as opposed to no touches?

If you were trading options on the $RUT, then the udner lining is cash settled. There are no shares on the index. If you were trading options on the IWM then it would be settled in shares.

They do on HBO! :D

Guess I should have looked that up before posting. I remembered reading something to the contrary a couple of years ago, but a quick google search certainly agrees with you. Looks like Traders Accounting is pushing for the same treatment on the ETF's, as well. Seems to be a grey area, which...

When comparing the SPY to the SPX, don't forget that there is a dividend built into the price of the SPY's. It's not exactly 1/10th the value of the SPX. Mo, I don't think that you get 60/40 tax treatment trading options on the SPX cash index. I could be wrong, but I think it's only for...

You are clearly not connecting the dots. We'll try not to jump on you for being a newb. :p

I'd like to see the bottom of that pic, too!:p
