    GME YOLO is MIA

    You can't "short a company to its ground". They can only short the company's stock price to the ground. And even that won't work for long when the company has solid financials.

    why does prop trading have such a high turn over?

    As per your first question, I can't really tell to be honest, I have seen conservative, risk-seeking, sharp and not so sharp minds, hard working and more relaxed all succeed at some point. Though the really high performing ones probably were very sharp, hard working, and have a high tolerance...

    why does prop trading have such a high turn over?

    From my experience, beginning prop traders either got paid a small salary or have their living expenses covered otherwise, so I don't think the pressure you are talking about was an issue. There was the pressure of having to perform to be able to stay on. I.e., if after say, six months, you are...

    The very long term prospects for bitcoin

    If the value of BTC continues to rise, this alone makes it fail as a payment system. It will be too valuable as an investment to use as a currency. If it is not used as a currency, then there is not other use for it hence no value. I see a problem here.

    I’d like to answer some questions.

    Thank you for the opportunity. I would like if you could expand on the following: I trade a lot and I talk to other traders all day every day who also trade a lot. It is well known that you become similar to who you hang out with, but it is not always that easy, from my point of view, to find...

    Standard deviation for irregularly spaced timeseries

    Standard deviation of N=10 is the same measure as of N=100, so it shouldn't matter (make sure to divide by N-1 because you are working with observational data). What you could also consider is taking standard deviation not by time, but by number of observations. So instead of measuring every...

    IEX 'deep' says avg spread for DJIA is great than that for all stocks?

    I suppose IEX Deep shows you the best IEX bid and ask. Maybe IEX is more prominent in lower cap stocks and not very often top of book on the large caps? I agree your stats are unexpected.
