Look at the difference between the volty of the straddles of X, and Y. If it is higher than your number (2%?) sell straddle that has higher volty, long the other straddle, and hedge with the pair.

I think the model of future books in neither in the old model, nor in the amazon model. Do you know what that model is?

I actually think that the biggest 'sin' of the old model is that it can cut out superstar authors who are not known yet. With the new model, the barrier for new authors is really low which, while it can produce bad works, it would not cut great works.

Thanks N54_Fan! As the saying goes, a picture (with time stamps) is worth a thousand words, and can do all the talking on its own.

What makes you think that? I have my opinion on future price dynamics.

Could someone please post a 1-minute chart of today's (today=Monday October 17, 2011) trading of QQQ? They can be helpful to readers for analysis, comments, and exchange of useful lessons/conclusions.

Now qqq at 57.30 running up from the bottom. Now everyone can see it. It may go up, or down, or retest the bottom. Who knows what can now happen, but I am sure it will fluctuate, and that the easy money is now off tha tables. I was extremely lucky today and wednesday/thursday, with the price...

QQQ at 57.04. As planned! :cool:

I find today to be an easy short, even if it were to break friday's high. All the bears who joined the last downtrend after it became easy to see, are now underwater. So the market might now work on bulls who joined later to give them a hair cut instead of the steak they were after. QQQ at...

The market cannot give what the market does not have. Let us call such things, "the impossible things in trading". It would then be absurd for a trader to seek the impossible, yet I believe the average trader seeks such impossible things. A possible example of impossible things, which may...

It could be viewed that way, but what I found excessive is rather the high VXX, and the too fast fall in the latest bear leg. The rest rise is rather a proxy of a top/bear leg in volty. I have another hypothesis for how volty would "die out".

True only if your variable (let us call it X) stays equal to what it has has been so far --- You know what X is, and I assume you are not stating it here on purpose. Your assumption is valid 5% of the time (in the best case).

Minus infinity --- next time write what you think, and not what you want others to think.

There is only one thing that matters--- it is not economics.

How about looking in the mirror?

The zionist decision makers would not allow intervention in Syria, because of concern that Syria might bomb Israhell if Syria is attacked.

Now that we have all price action known, I am thinking to print a chart and read all numbers posted today on this thread prior to them happening. In addition to 120.90 (top area), and 119.60 (accumulation area), I plan to read the other numbers, namely 120.08, and 120.40. The moves...

SPY at 120.85. Sharks (sellers) entering the water?

SPY at 120.82. Is the market now about to hand the price to the sellers? If it does, are they aiming for 120.ish area?
