    Larval - Tool to find volatile stocks

    The volume below refers to volume transacted in in the last ~5 minutes, right? Not sure if it's very useful as it's too stock dependent. It would be great to filter out by min ADV and min price (avove $5 for example).

    VXX ETN decoupling

    Can someone explain why VXX had a spike? My understanding is that administrator temporarily suspended issuing more shares. Does that cause short squeeze because people were afraid that they would be forced to cover(buy) shares? Or is just GME type irrational squeeze? I sold some 42 calls on...

    Looking for a book...

    I always assumed that one professional can easily understand another one speaking on subject of their expertise. Why do you think it’s hard to understand him even if you understand the concepts?

    which youtube "traders" are legit?

    That’s an awesome interview and a must watch. What I like about YouTube is that, even though there’s a lot of crap, there’s lots of content by real traders with good credentials. It’s the closest you can get to a prop firm experience without being in a prop firm.

    Possible to expense car payments as home based trader?

    Is there such thing as a “Trading Entity?” You don’t need to apply for trader status as a corp, afaik. Not arguing, just trying to understand.

    Possible to expense car payments as home based trader?

    There are three ways, that I know of: Buy and depreciate Write off mileage based Write off lease. If you have a corp, there’s good chance some money coming from other sources, so easy to justify imho. In the worst case, start a gum ball machine vending business.

    Possible to expense car payments as home based trader?

    Haven’t done it yet, but my understanding is that the easiest way is to lease the car, which would be 100% deductible including insurance. You must not use the car for your personal use, but as long as you don’t abuse it, I doubt it will be an issue.

    Looking to team up with someone skilled in system building

    You are not concerned about sharing your strategy with the developer? The reason I ask is because oftentimes the strategy not worth protecting is not worth for developer to implement (for free that is). I assume, since you are trading manually, latency is not an issue and you are not using...

    Direct routed order execution comparison?

    Oops, I confused you with another guy asking similar question on another thread.
  15. Q

    Direct routed order execution comparison?

    Why do you need to learn it if you want zero commissions? I assume you mostly take liquidity, so can’t expect to get it with direct routing(brokers would be eating all the fees). Imho, only worth it if you collocate for both execution and market data (very expensive)

    There she goes (McDonalds)

    As a former citizen of such a state, #3 is unfortunately the only reality for most. Which leads to option #4 : Join the establishment and fight the “empire of lies”

    @terr, thanks for posting. “When I smile, they think I am laughing at them” Lol. Does anyone think closing food places for regular people is an example of misguided political correctness?
