    where a stop loss might not work?

    1) Scheduled time gaps (overnight is best example). 2) Unscheduled but controlled trading halts, e.g. because a company requests its stock to be halted pending a new information release. 3) Unintended interruptions due to tech stack problems anywhere from the exchange, to your broker, all the...

    Crypto will likely be shut down

    It's not that easy. Israel is colonizing and pushing into Palestinian territory. It's a policy of the far right wing gov in power in Israel. It would probably help if Israelites voted differently (for now, Netanyahu has been doing his best to erode the supreme court's independence). So...

    Retail investors can soon own a piece of 'Shrek' music royalties

    Interesting and actually useful since there is a yield. The concept could be applied to movies and maybe some games as well (although games requiring active maintenance are perhaps no fit).

    Doubtful about the future?

    Are you a bot OP? If not, I do have a semi-serious reply: The future is always scary and uncertain. Getting stuck in generalized doom mongering never helps in getting your bias correct. Better be a permabull than a permabear then, at least you will be making money. (Footnote: Now may well be a...

    AI Trading Bot Makes $38,000 in Just 5 Days, Beating Professional Traders

    Thanks for doing the work to showcase this. I just short circuited to the following: when somebody posts a message like OP with that language, it's always a scam to prey on a mix of completely inexperienced people and idiots.

    Oh boy oh boy, who else has been yearning for some CME Cobalt trading?

    Gotta love the contract size 2,204.62 lbs which "accidentally" rounds to 999.999 kg.

    Former JPMorgan gold trader sentenced to 6 months in prison on spoofing charge

    Would be pretty cool to sit 11 000 years in prison and live to see the end of human civilization.

    Amateurs Pile Into 24-Hour Options: ‘It’s Just Gambling’

    Agreed. And nanny staters rush to rescue traders from themselves. Rather than restricting "gambling" (there are clear similarities to short term trading, let's not sweep that under the rug), they should target the legions of scammers in this industry, e.g. "trading system" vendors. It's fine to...

    Are Leveraged ETFs Worth the Costs and Risk?

    Yeah, in the 2010s leveraging up to the tits on US big caps was the easiest game (not saying I understood it in real time...) 2020s is not going to be a re-run unless one thinks rates are going back to where they were (ideally back to deflation), with good growth from here given that stocks...

    linear regression with scikit-learn

    You will probably want to calculate R^2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_determination) on that for a start... Spontaneously it looks like noise to me, and also the supposed largest magnitudes of "profit" occur in the middle of the parameter range.

    Prigozhin goes poof (supposedly).

    Yeah weird Prigo came back to Russia. But he was never a coward (his only redeeming trait) unlike Putin.

    terrible technical analysis course

    Nope. Sadly, I did buy some TA books early on, but otherwise haven't pushed money into that ecosystem.

    China’s 40-Year Boom Is Over. What Comes Next?

    Yeah I'm pretty sure they will solve this through state intervention, whether that is helicopter money or something more nuanced. Any kind of problem with numbers on books can be solved if there is a political will to. It's just a question of how fast Xi gets it.

    Any elite traders ever been banned by CFD brokers for being consistently profitable?

    You're going to have to elaborate on that. Both why you think that is and what specific CFD platform would have an incentive for that (typically, they want you to trade more, not less).

    Trump is being investigating BECAUSE he is running for President

    So what is Trump being investigating as per thread title?

    The rumor is, the Donald is going to be tried...

    Look, if you are going to say it's OK to call public officials and request votes to be changed, be open about that you want to be run by a dictator, i.e. tyrant, already. So you are in fact the supporter of tyranny.

    Negative gamma, short squeeze?

    Absolutely, if you have a better suggestion for a delta only piker like me, LMK. Doing the corresponding analysis myself would have been ideal, but skill wise I am far, far removed. While SG's general market calls have been noise, they have added value for me, e.g. their SPX "call walls" have...
