    HFT Impact on a Futures Retail Trader

    They are pro-rata, right ? I knew that was the case, but I always (sometimes) speak in absolutes ;)

    HFT Impact on a Futures Retail Trader

    If you already know you are getting filled 80℅, can't you self assess the hft impact on your strategy? Assuming you're trading on a Globex market...there is no fragmentation, and thus no front running (not legally anyway) . What you see is what you get (in my view). Globex also has a FIFO order...

    How do you know what strike price to buy?

    If selling options is optimal, why do something sub-optimal? Hedged risk is for the birds

    NVDA - Fast Money started this idea.

    NVDA is soo much broader than self driving cars, and I don't even think that's the biggest market in the next 10 years. Cars are expensive....self driving cars aren't going to outpace VR chips, personal computers, home automation, or technical computing. Self driving cars will eventually...

    NVDA - Fast Money started this idea.

    I haven't been following this stock, but from a technology perspective...I buy the hype . Machine learning often requires GPUs, and specifically GPUs that can run CUDA, and that means NVDA GPUs. I don't think there is much dev going on with the CUDA alternative OpenCL (I could be wrong). If...

    Viagra for the brain

    Amazing how much of this there is around now. Interesting marketing approch too: skirt by the fact there is no evidence it works by using waaaay too many words

    Quality Low Cost Futures Brokers???

    Deep Discount Trading is worth a try. I haven't actually traded with them, but they have always been super straight forward with me when I ask questions, respond quickly, and I haven't seen cheaper round trips. They require a $5k minumum deposit.

    QTPy-Lib, a new algorithmic trading Python library

    Might want to be careful with the name. There is already a QTPy out there.

    Oil in the future

    Oil, Coal, and Nat Gas will remain our primary means of energy production for a LONG time to come. Probably the next hundred years, I'd guess. Really, Nuclear is the only viable replacement right now, from a technology perspective. Right now, Electric powered cars are really oil or coal...

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    It seemed to me that nearly EVERYONE was disputing the possibility of making 30% a month? Sure, its possible to get lucky and do it. But the OP will eventually get wiped out if he keeps taking huge risks. I know that is what I was trying to convey....

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    This is obviously false. If it were true, the weekly option market would be so thin that it wouldn't be tradeable for market takers, and wouldn't be profitable for market makers. And that clearly isn't the case... Just be careful man, and make sure you approach things with risk in mind...

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    In their defense, you haven't offered anything believable yet. Saying you are making 30% a month after slightly less than a month of paper trading doesn't exactly inspire confidence...

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    Fair enough, as long as you have a plan you believe in

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    All's your report shows is that you're writing options contracts....what happens to your account if the underlying on those options you wrote makes a 2-3 (or more) sigma move against you ? Do u end up losing more than 30% of your account ?

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    Posting actual positions, risk statistics, etc will help silence the skeptics....

    My goal is to make at least 30% per month

    I still don't buy it...30% on $1e6 is huge without an extraordinary amount of risk.... but you don't have to prove anything to me, or anyone else. Just trying to help, not call you out.
