What makes you think the spike in volume was the catalyst that reversed the price?

It works just the opposite. IB will need you to put up more cash than the value of your short position. Margin requirements are based on many factors and they will not reveal their exact formula but for each $1,000 you go short you will find your buying power can drop by multiples of that.

You may know this but since you said this is new to you it's important to state. 1) You can lose more than your original investment by selling puts. 2) Trading options generally exposes you to very high bid/ask spreads and that will cost you. If you want to go long the stock it is FAR more...

Why is it important to you that they go public? Are you guessing this will add value to the company? If selling your shares is what you are interested in then start looking for a buyer. Going public just adds more uncertainty and volatility.

It's refreshing to hear from someone that has a clue about this. If you trade daily the quality of your fills is very important. I'd love to hear more of your ideas on order entry algorithms you have created. Are you only trading options? How often are you getting filled inside NBBO? When...

You obviously understand the mechanics. I'm suspicious that lit liquidity isn't moving prices only because I've taken NBBO stock data and tested this idea. Found absolutely no correlation. Options could trade very differently.

I do all the above. Depends on the need. Can do many years of tic data on all exchange traded stocks with an inexpensive used Dell rackmount server running Linux. You obviously want to use the least amount of data required. If you only need 1-min or 10-min bars then use that. If you need to...

If the order is sitting on the exchange as hidden then you should consider the costs and benefits of this. Exchanges are required to send an order to another exchange that is showing a better price. If you are hidden then the market will frequently trade thru your price. You will only get a...

You can totally do this. 1-min bars on all exchange traded stocks is not a lot of data. I've tested algos on that for years using a very moderate Dell server running Linux. You can also do 1-sec bars and tic data. It's a bunch of data but entirely doable for a server you will spend less than...

Write software to put your order where you want it. If you use simple broker provided order types you can easily be taken advantage of. For example, a simple midpoint order type allows those on the bid and ask to move your order price just by changing their bid/ask. You need a more...

No idea. Maybe this particular claim isn't that relevant and they feel he is generally over promising.

He does indeed trade the one or two stocks every day that move up 20 to 30 percent. The claim is correct.

This idea has been around for a very long time and is pretty dated. That's the general idea but I don't think it's nearly that easy anymore.

People chose to pay for Ross' advice and watch him trade. What's the big deal? He does state on every one of his videos, "my results are not typical. Most beginner traders lose money." If that isn't clear enough then what are they looking for?

Market is closed. Bid is over $1,000. Guess there's a first time for everything.

This job description has nothing to do with programming or anything related to it.

This could end up being some very expensive over fitting. lol.

Amazon AWS. You can spend $1 billion on compute time if you want or just a few dollars. What sort of problem are you trying to solve?

Please show us your evidence regarding inside trading. Can't wait to see it.

Or maybe it was just used by a lot of US citizens (it was). The US government won't let you use Binance, KYC or not. They're scared you might like freedom a bit too much.
