We agree on that (what a President can influence), I always thought it ridiculous when we judge the President on the price of gas either high or low. However I am still baffled by this concept that adding 45,000 jobs worth of effort toward not only solving a problem we don't have (oil drilling...

And don't forget the cost of transferring money between those two account repeatedly as one goes to zero and you have to top it off from the other. As well as how obvious that behavior is to the company you're taking advantage of.

I did read the Bloomberg article you listed, which no-where claims that ExxonMobile is magically going to create 45,000 jobs because...Trump!!! You're quoting Fox!! which you don't link and which has a pretty tenuous grasp on facts in general. Because you don't provide a reference I haven't a...

ExxonMobile has only 80,000 employees worldwide, built up over the last 100 years. You think Trump is magically going to increase their headcount by 50%, by adding supply to an existing oil glut no less! Take a minute to think for yourself and apply some independent thought, good grief!

I don't see a seed round in there, but it is illuminating who the individual investors are. In this case I see Tony Hawk (most famous skateboarder in the world), for example. So again, he brings way more than his money to the table for this particular company, and demonstrates that a random...

They seemed to have gone away, although I haven't been active for several weeks over there. The IG owned MM always has 200 contracts on each side, they have another MM who always offers 70 or 75 on a side, and the late comer was offering 20 or 25 on a side, I don't remember exactly what it was...

You don't need an account, they post the daily time and sales here - https://www.nadex.com/market-data for historical data starting with the previous trading day.

Highly recommend doing what kandlekid recommends. It's not a subject that yields itself to a couple paragraphs on a message board and requires at least a basic prob/stats background. Finance is no different than any other profession, you don't ask an electrical engineer to explain "how to...

Nadex changed their rules effective Dec 19th to add a wide spread surcharge which incentivizes the market makers to lower their spreads. The full notice was: "On December 2, 2016, North American Derivatives Exchange, Inc. (“Nadex”, the “Exchange”) submitted to the Commodity Futures Trading...

It's pretty important to see the probability distribution in this industry. You may read a report that says on aggregate Venture funds get a X% rate of return. If you look at the details, you'll see that Kleiner, DFJ, Sequoia, Accel, and a couple others are responsible for the majority of those...

It's pretty widely recognized that John McAfee at the very least has some serious mental health issues. His case is in no way representative of the experience of the thousands of expats who happily and safely live in Latin America. Including Mexico which, by the way, is a big country that isn't...

At this point I was just trying to point out how illogical zdreg was being with this bs about an unnamed ethnic group getting windfall profits from borrow rates, since anyone could harvest those same windfall profits by entering a synthetic version of the same position. However you do bring up...

Wow, the racist who tells someone else to take a course in logic and calls them entitled! You just can't make this stuff up! Well we all know your true colors now, and they're not pretty. Like I said, worst kind of coward. On ignore.

Just answer the damn question, what are you afraid of? That the guy's you're throwing stones at might throw stones back? Racists are generally the worst kind of cowards when they get called on it.

Accusing an unnamed ethnic group of illegal behavior is pretty serious, asking you to clarify what group that is is a serious question you seem dead set on ignoring because somehow you think that makes you appear less racist, I guess. I'm just asking you to man up and name them instead of...

Sure, but end the suspence already. It's Namibians isn't it, those shifty bastages with their Afrikaans nonsense and all those wildebeest.

If we're talking Citibank here neither of those are true are they? Even in 2009 there were options on C and they were pretty liquid weren't they?

I meant that the borrow costs are reflected in the synthetic with a break in put call parity equal to the borrow cost, so anyone who wanted to capture the same evil profits that this supposed overrepresented ethnic group (who aren't Jewish but we won't say who they are, Samoan?, Swedish...

There is a market in the EU for emissions. At the danger of grossly oversimplifying, each country has a cap of carbon they've agreed to emit. It may be cheaper for some companies to mitigate their carbon emissions than others. The market is designed for the companies who can cut carbon emissions...

Since you can synthetically get the same effect with options as shorting, any inefficiencies in this market should be pretty easy to kill, no?
