    Why does Volume matter? Isn't non-involvement from institutional buyers itself a signal?

    Or possibly creating/replicating a position in the options market ? It is because of these inconsistancies/variables that I loose my confidence in volume as a leading indicator as many adhere to. @Sprout ..maybe you can comment. I guess my problem with volume is how do you establish the true...

    If you buy a dividend paying stock on margin and the broker lend you that stock

    What ? I think RM was just explaining how X- div works on a practical basis. I don't think he was expounding on the OP critical thinking abilities.

    Better to be Wide or Deep?

    ...?.. Is that in reference to Soros shorting the pound ? Or other big FX trades ? If so, that is not interfereing with anyone's affairs, it is trading in the free markets. If not, Ignore my response.

    Turning Points and Timing | Felix Zulauf Outtake | Real Vision Video

    Ok, but the obvious question is, and I'm not trolling, how many of crosses of this type in totality just reversed leading to whip saws. Again, serious question, do you have the data, I don't.

    What Nassim Taleb Did on Black Monday 1987

    That brings up the next issue...your tail risk fund, vehicle, whatever, has to "perform as advertised" when the time comes. Many did/do not. (Not saying TAIL will not).

    Bitcoin Price Thread

    This post illustrates how clueless the original BTC fan club was/is on the relationship between asset classes. You are trying to equate a transaction to assigning a value. It is not ironic it is totally irrelavant.

    Calmar ratio 2674

    ....and your accountant passes this info along to you ? Why ? You implied you know the identity of the trader, from your source, the accountant. Who is breaking various ethical standards of his profession if not the legal standards. This is BS one level or the other. Oh, 13 posts.

    What Nassim Taleb Did on Black Monday 1987

    His philosophy as a overall investment strategy I am not a fan of. His philosophy in general, I think I've taken a few useful points from. One being, if a trade is not working, you do not need to know why it is not working. Just that is not working and get out. As I mention I thought Fooled...

    You guys blowing out your accounts left and right

    @Xela. As a financial advisor (professionally) as well as an active trader (personally) I always consider the risk-return characteristics of such a strategy as opposed the traditonal long term investment models...blah blah blah. Alas...compliance/regulatory issues would never allow me to...
