I'm not a fan of GG but I've noticed him on the board as he seemed to be going through some of the issues that I went through, I can say that he puts effort and honesty in his posts which is more than most of the people here do. Keep up the valiant effort Gordon Gecko know that there are lots of...

I'm not looking to predict anything, I just want to be able to guage option IVs against the HVs of the underlying, at the same time I want to have an idea of where the volatilities are going in the short term. GARCH is a mathematical model used to forecast volatilities based on HVs, it is an...
