    Simple question about options

    "What's this idiom? I’ve never heard it, but I like it." A pitch you don't swing at. OP didn't want answers as he had been given the answers. IMHO just wanted someone to badger.

    Chapter 7 question

    In the great state of California, they do have some funky rules based on the products you offer. Chat with State security administrators to get full details. Part of the requirement is based on client geography as well as yours. Fee-based is a little easier, otherwise, you may need a B/D...

    Simple question about options

    Sounds like a pitch in the dirt, but what the hell. Stock movement impacts both the put and the call. Stock goes up $1 ATM call expected to go up $.50 - ATM puts should drop about $.50 and magically there is your dollar net. The first derivative of price is delta, but it is not static. Read...

    Chapter 7 question

    Series 7 - you seem to be confusing bankruptcy with RIA registration. You don't need a 7 to be an RIA unless the firm requires it. You need to be sponsored for a 7 - any breathing chimp can pass it. It has an overall shitty pass ratio, but a huge pass ratio for first-time testers. You'll...

    When is options scalping manipulative trading?

    Not really enough info, but it sounds like a derived order rule. How many venues does the option list?

    What kind of AUM you get as hedge fund trader ?

    Depends a ton on if you're joining a product team or leading a team. Generally, size will depend on the fund's aggregate and product liquidity. A volatility crew at a billion-dollar fund might run a $100 million book. Hitting your target/benchmark bonus will usually start at 10%. If it's an...

    With PUT buying at record levels, why is the SKEW so flat?

    "Maybe one reason is due to people buying near the money puts more than OTM puts?" That would probably result in a significant skew, because of the gamma mismatch. If you look at OPRA IMHO it's just a ton of two-sided trading. The institutional guys say their correlation and dispersion books...

    With PUT buying at record levels, why is the SKEW so flat?

    There is a much simpler, but less liked answer. Skew can be thought of as a way to induce buyers/sellers when there is a lack of natural buyers/sellers. Essentially an effort to give the MM community it's hedges. For example, higher skew in, puts - hopes to create sellers. MMs have almost a...

    VXO Index Futures in 1980s / 1990s?

    Probably hard to get or wildly expensive, but CBOE research modeled back to 1980ish. One of the old annual reports had it. It was used as a selling tool to show the impact of the 87 market break.
