In the moment, people enjoy the work they do; whether they're working long hours or doing it just for the money is beside the point. If you're lucky the money is secondary... it's *all* bonus.. If not, you have my condolences; you'll get there in time. When I was "on wall street" I liked the...

Maybe, I always try to avoid the consumer stuff from any brand. The thinkpads went downhill after Lenovo took over IMHO. I've had pretty good luck but limited experience with Dell equipment. The HP stuff has always shined, the last server I got from HPE is working out well too. The only thing I...

This is true of all consumer grade stuff, not just HP ;)

I wouldn't get caught up in the sunken cost fallacy. IMHO you'll lose out due to opportunity costs. I'm not saying dump it/them, but beware.

I've been using HP equipment for 35+ years and it's always served me very well.

With all due respect @lucysparabola, you should work on your diplomacy because the old joke is: “It’s how you tell someone to go to hell in a way that makes them look forward to the trip.” :rolleyes:

Lol, if anyone on this site is worth blocking it's probably you.

If you can't set up the software against a test account first, why on earth would someone give you access to their live account? The order of things matters, you (of all people) should know this. Lol You said it yourself earlier... there are things called parameters; the login info can be...

Ahahahaha! Yeah, but I only want to read the good parts... you post way too much bullshit in between. That's why you need to organize it better. For a small fee I can help you setup social/forum software on your own site ;) You can get the money from your "rich daddy". Is that the kind of...

See what I mean @fullautotrading ? You should post your bullshit to your own website and then just put links to it here. At least that would save us the trouble of reading it :rolleyes: Here are a few recommendations... https://www.phpbb.com/ https://mybb.com/ https://www.humhub.com

BTW, I'm glad you're finally using code blocks a little more... given that your product is a piece of software and you're a wold-renowned professor of statistics who is a master of software development it's very refreshing.

:D Don't forget, my ssh key is here and you promised me a demo on one of the many computers you have. This shouldn't be difficult for a such a wealthy, intelligent, generous and kind person like yourself, right? What day should I put the appointment in to my calendar?

As a devout end-user of your system I'd like to say.... ZZZZZZZzzzzZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz! You should put rambling drivel and bullshit like this on your web-site instead; maybe in the FAQ or buried in an end-user manual somewhere. That way you can edit it to be more concise as your English and...

Yeah, it's cool... I was just goofing. I thought context made that clear; guess not. I don't care if you call names, fling shit, act mature or immature. It behooves the reader to look past that which does not concern them. And, for the record, although some people (say @destriero for example)...

Yeah, whatever... I don't care. Unleash your animal spirits. Just thought it'd be nice to give some serious consideration to the question for once inside the first hour of it being posted. But.... this is ET so let the shit flinging begin. Should I start? Where's @destriero when you need him?

Can you provide a few of these reasons? Aren't placing a limit order at the midpoint and providing liquidity basically the same things? Couldn't you deliberately look for options with a small spread and use those to lever your primary edge? I'm trying to think of the how's not the what's...

You're really not my friend are you @newwurldmn :( Just can't refuse to go down the rabbit-hole! Topic, on-topic... prove your smarts ;) Dealing with a computer can be frustrating, I know some just can't hack it. Sorry, that was a cheap shot but had to get it in. ON TOPIC! (needed to remind...

You're doing God's work @misterkel but don't feel obligated to fight my battles for me. AHAHAHhAahhah! Just kidding, would it be possible, just this once (dear God please!) to avoid the pissing contests and stay on-topic? The title is: Large options spread and it seems the crux of the question...

I'm not getting into a pissing contest here, find @TheDawn for that. I just wanted to point out that vol is not technically the only factor at work. It may be the most important, sure. But... it's not the only one; which is what you somewhat implied. Concede now! Lol... j/k, listen to...

I wouldn't say it's the only reason. With options you can more easily eliminate certain kinds of risks and only focus on the ones you have some insight on, or expectation of. For example, if you think an underlying asset won't go up or down you can structure a trade to profit from the...
