You will learn more testing it yourself, nobody is going to hand you anything, especially on ET! http://www.masterthegap.com Saw a webinar awhile back on this, looks interesting, trades futures from my understanding. Pristine also offers a Gap Trading course, don't know much about it...

Want some opinions on the CMT program. Specifically from people that have or those that are going through it now. I wasn't looking at it for helping get a trading job, just something to take and eventually join the MTA for network connections and their seminars. Do you feel like it enhanced your...

I have been considering investigating trading soybeans for awhile now. I know a local in the pit and I asked him why soybeans, his answer still resonates with me. He said because he only has to focus on soybeans, nothing else. He's not worried about what the bonds or s&ps are doing and how...

Just like Margin Call & Arbitrage also marked the top (sarcasm)...

Which one are you talking about? Catching the Wolf of wallstreet? I enjoyed the first book, if anyone did they should check out the book The Buy Side. It's newer and has more trading material but nothing to learn from. I'm excited to see who plays his wife...

Run away! Or put up 5k and be ok losing it while learning, then put up another 5k to lose, then maybe you might find a few things to work and you can put up the 10k later.

Last day rule stop is just the low of the actual breakout day. He also now tends to wait til the close to actually initiate the position, instead of just at the breakout levels.

Great insight thanks Mav.

Mav, do you have a read on aapl at all?

What would even be better then PM would be to have your company email address or your Bloomberg email whichever would be easiest to send you my résumé for a janitorial job at your firm?

Cool thanks appreciate it.

downsyd you're right once I get done with nursery school and grow up I want to be just like you. You are probably so rich, have a nice house and tons of cars! You probably trade at the best trading firm in the world and you have the biggest book. I imagine you stand in the middle of the floor...

Thank you that was the answer to my question!

Are you dense? I never said they were cheaper, all I said was in Nattenburg & McMillian he states that sometimes the c-p < u-x or vice versa, all I was asking is for people who have traded options a lot more if they ever come across this anymore.

It was a simple question dickbag.

What I meant was how often is the c-p < u - x for example

Thanks for all the responses and the links. I took some time this weekend to study more about synthetic positions and I think I will start to trade those more versus what I have been doing. Also when you are talking DTIM options, I used TOS thinkback to see what the GMCR calls were selling for...

I would PM you asking how I can hedge this :) So would you say it's not worth the energy for a retail trader to try to find put-call parity arbitrage situations?

Thank you, I completely agree with what your said. I calculated the delta ratio and saw that it was only around .25 which was lower then it probably should be, I have 5 though. I'm going to study more about synthetics this weekend. I feel like I read Cottle and Nattenburg and understand it...

Nothing, the box question was answere by post 3 of the thread, I just didn't want to start a new thread.
