    The ACD Method

    maybe you could expand on your thoughts regarding the grains in general. Personally I haven't a clue where any of this is trading but many lurkers would be interested in how you approach this part of the market. I imagine you get some good trending markets in grains.

    The ACD Method

    This is an interesting question, these are futures that trade practically 24 hours a day. ACD theory is to use the domiciled/home market of the product. Nymex = New York so use the eastern time open. The opening range is a great way to get into a trade. In general terms if you are scalping you...

    MCD is in big trouble. May not exist in 5 years

    I am not disputing whether the stock should be higher or lower. Its just your title that MCD may not exist in 5 years. I really have no opinion of the stock either way. The company itself is to me a lot like MSFT, very mature, growth?. Like Handle 123 said this appears to be going sideways...

    MCD is in big trouble. May not exist in 5 years

    http://www.netleaseadvisor.com/tenant.php?t=12 4% cap rate that's probably for a 20 year lease. You think Calper's is willing to get a 4% yield on their $$$ if its gonna be out of business, if MCD ain't around it will be due to a nuclear war. Stock is sideways this is like selling puts on...

    The ACD Method

    He says that he ran into scale/size issues. Seeing that they were managing several billions I am guessing that it is more of an issue of opportunity than capital. Like many market makers I am guessing that they did better with high vol. They did well overall around the credit crisis.

    The ACD Method

    you can get the vol from the price of the option like I said a few pages ago, still the amount of data from OPRA per day is quite large for a retail punter. The think back option of TOS is great if you know what you're doing. I thought it was interesting that he (Simons) said that the model made...

    a 10-year experience Chinese stock trader lost all in 10 minutes

    Someone called him: "deserve, Who told you add leverage!" Someone gently criticized:. "Timely retreat, smarter than the stubborn insistence" this makes me want to know Chinese language, sounds like Tao for traders...

    The ACD Method

    there was a long portion of the thread talking about opening ranges. Here is the thing, if spy lets say opens higher and then comes back to the opening price you have a typical mean reverting day. If not you have a trend day where price keeps moving the same way up or down. Being on the right...

    you are too kind Mav, don't know if you saw Bill Luby's latest post, he has done some great research on peak vol, etc. http://vixandmore.blogspot.com/ "Note that based on the data for the 23 VIX spikes in excess of 30%, the SPX has a tendency to outperform its long-term average over the course...
