HD, I also am amazed at the resiliency of this market's shrinking volatility. The VIX is hitting a new low every few days. Fortunately, we just kept on selling it and it has worked well. It appears very close to the summer of two years ago just before 9/11.

For those interested, at the grocery store I buy flour tortillas with a net 2 grams of carbs. Great for breakfast burritos.

I did these all the time in college. Just make sure iv isn't shrinking too quickly as that long side has to be worth enough to be profitable.

Thanks for the feedback AAA. That is exactly what I'm finding in my research. I have yet to explore range expansion using atr's on either session or both combined but that also should be interesting. There seem to be quite a few gaps and the overnight can be just as volatile as the day...

The futures options seem to be liquid enough for my purposes and I like the european style options.

Open a futures account and park it in tbills.

Speaking is absolutes often invites criticism, as we can see. From a system point of view, the best systems (according to my own standard of course :D ) are swing systems. DT'ing systems are usually only marginally successful.

Interesting comments. I'm afraid we are in different camps but perhaps have different goals anyway. My goal is the building of as much lean muscle mass as possible and staying lean and healthy at the same time. I do agree the site is lame, but not the info, and the book is great. Take...

Hormones are the key to all metabolic activity. Growth hormone is largely responsible for controlling the rate at which we age and store and use energy (burn fat). In short the book explains how to nearly cease aging, diet correctly with both carbs, fat and protein and evaluate the most...

This is the best book (handed to me by an accomplished body builder) I've read to accomplish physical goals in a healthy way. Truly ground breaking, Natural Hormone Enhancement. http://www.extique.com

This summer is very similiar to the one two years ago before 9/11. I think this year we will see how '01 would have played out without the attack.

Okay, here are my questions. Why is the data not available now as promised? Why can't we get less data for now?

I'm beginning research into mechanical forex system development. Before I dive in does anyone have any experience is what typcially works and on what compression do strategies appear viable? I also build systematic options trading systems. Does anyone have any experience shorting premium...

Does anyone have any experience shorting forex options?

I may believe it. If you are smoking us I may need to ask to come visit you. Are you located in a HF database?

Even worse it is mostly bear market data. I'm beginning to think there is a vested interest for ts in not releasing the data. It would almost certianly illuminate which system vendors will not make it.

metooxx, how are the Bahamas? I was hoping to ask a couple of q's if you are up for it as you are one of the most knowledgeable people here. How many traders do you have working at your firm? What kind of returns on the firm do you target/attain? 50-100 stocks is a good deal for one...

Options sellers should be doing fairly well right now. We made 10% last month and are up 6% so far for august.

A number of swing systems including i-master, oddball, the l/s and others seem to be lacking performance for the past year as the market continues to not follow through. Congestion systems are doing well though.

I also don't ascribe to the theory if someone is willing to sell a system then it no longer works or never did, although there are many less than satisfactory systems out there. There are many talented people who are severely undercapitalized and relegated to making money in other ways besides...
