    Cash secured put + call?

    So does this mean you try to avoid assignment? I was under the impression that the longer duration, the easier it is to roll. You are saying the opposite? Will you roll both legs of your calendar or only the short one? Would the roll result in net credit? Sorry, lots of questions :) My “fear”...

    When a model becomes extinct

    Automated, yes. Having edge, doubtful. Although, I am not sure how PA is defined exactly. Are you saying there are robust purely TA based automated systems?

    Polygon live trades in Binary

    The sad part is that Pilygon (or any provider) actually getting binary integer values and convert them to asciii floating point. The wasted cycles could be better spent mining BTC :)

    COIN hung TWS on IPO day?

    I had no issues on TOS and my second instance of TWS (w/o COIN) was fine. I suspect it’s API related.

    COIN hung TWS on IPO day?
