I tend to have semantic issues quite often as I call things what I am familiar with calling them. Maybe I missed the objective as Matt's response was way out in left field with what I thought. Are you trying to understand how vol moves between present at the money vol and the vol you see in...

Wow, are you retarded.

One, don't assume any option model works. It is just a tool. The model cannot account for time vs speed.i spent a lot of time building one that does what you are thinking. You put in an estimate, then adjust accordingly as it will never be correct goes up fast into your longs..one thing..into...

Missing a mkt order by .02. Yep, I miss the days of the getting ass raped for half dollars by specialists.

I'll begin by saying I do not consider myself a directional trader nor a TA. With that said, I am quite familiar with it, and my strongest recommendation is to keep your money and use it to buy a few books. There is absolutely nothing anyone can teach you that has not been written on that...

I was so burned out by my mid 30s the thought gives me shivers.

I'm playing tennis against some Brazilian about two years ago. He starts telling me about an investment opportunity. Some guy returning 100+% per month, never had a losing day. Didn't matter how many times I told him that's bullshit. He keeps insisting how all these famous soccer players are...

Just the word Brazil is a red flag.

"Dinner's ready!" Glad to see you posting again.:)

In all fairness, I refused to read the book for several years thinking he took credit for the idea. That would have been uncool. In the book he is fairly clear it was not his idea. He did give it a cool name and presented the idea to the layman, and I applaud him for it. I still think unless...

I'd work with someone who microwaved and ate a baby before I would let him near me. Any type of dishonesty or fraud is a non-starter. This guy is clearly copy and pasting someone else's work. Some of it quite good. But he himself is an ignorant moron. Zero understanding of those topics. Zero!!!

No, never read it, but thumbed through it, definitely not 101. Start with something like Natenburg. That's baby food. And he is a smart guy, no need to apologise for thinking that.

World's greatest option trader. Short Delta - long gamma. <Snicker> That's real talent.

No, you just haven't been blocked yet.

I watched someone pull down 3 straight 7 figure months, never using more than 40k in capital.

Well looks like that got me banned. Good thing I didn't let him know how I giggled when he referred to himself as an options trader. That probably would have gotten me a 2*4 to the testies Oh well, back onto another airplane....arghhh.

Didn't he mock Taleb for having thin skin??? ...then brag about antagonizing some whistleblower dude?
