I was only commenting on the statement"Professional traders don't do prediction." Not any service or trade service.

Sorry but this is not accurate. Predictive models are very valuable and sought after by larger funds and prop firms.

Well, I have to disagree, and I thought his response was on the nasty side. I did answer his question with my 1st post but without a "YES" or "NO". The "NO" was implied by my response.

I went to youtube and watched some videos. I could not see it either.

What I have learned, in my experience, is that this information on its own can be deceptive. Large blocks of broad-based indexes or single stock names can be opening, closing, hedged, not hedged or the hedge from another trade. If you can make money from it, that is all that matters.

If that is your request, sure. You're wrong.

Very cool, but my brain can't handle that much information, then process it and then make trading decisions for quick scalps from that much information. I would need to hire a coder to put in place a rule set and then trade automated.

I think the problem is getting this all from one source and it having a GUI. We offer Realtick (RT) and LVX. #1 can be found on RT. Historical vols and greeks can be found on LVX but not vol surface. To view the VOL skew on any one day at any one time, you might have to buy the data and do that...

The spread reduces your risk and profit potential vs the long call. For short term trading, I prefer the long call. For swing positions I prefer spreads. For shorting, I prefer spreads.

"some people say that warrants exercise price will act as resistance price for the share price?" This is no different from a block of 5-year call options with a strike price of $3.25 except they are hard to short and call are not. Some will hedge with short stock, some won't. As the stock goes...

They are saying as the warrant goes in the money some players might short the stock vs the long warrant. Make more of a difference with small cap stocks.

Your example does not disclose the date they expire and if they can be exercised early. Basically no one would do what you said while OTM. They are priced like options that you can’t easily short.

In theory, the fed lowers rates when inflation is under control and companies need less expensive financing to spur growth in the economy. The fact that the Fed feels the need to do that mean GDP might fall and with it company earning. We are at or near full employment but that does not tell...

I do not find value in that, but the OCC website might have that for free.

I have not looked at this is a while, but it is my expectation that one trade of 1 option, the volume is 1 and OI the next day is 1 but on the OCC website where they report trades volume of 2, as they charge their fee twice. https://www.theocc.com/webapps/volume-query

Open Interest (OI) are open contracts between buyers and sellers with the OCC as the counterparty. Volume is each trade. If I buy to open and so does the seller, they increase OI. If one of us is opening and one closing, there is volume but no increase in OI. If we are both closings, there is...

Small-Cap listed or OTC?

Some symbols allow TAS trades at or near the close between 4:30pm and 5pm. Between 5pm and 6pm the exchanges update margin and set settlement prices in what I call the accounting update period. 6pm is the next trading day. Your FCM will bases your end of day margin based on the information they...

In general, Sunday - Friday 6:00 p.m. - 4:15 p.m. ET.
