    Will you buy timmay's hedge fund book?

    It was YOUR quote RichardRimes was responding to. The way you wrote the above response suggests your book was compared favorably to the above books....simple as that...not that you were a trader "catcher in the rye"...which is what the reviewer actually said. By the way Holden Caulfield admited...

    Don't Believe everything you hear

    I actually listened in on the chat and he (Tom Sosnoff) was in general advocating selling premium esp call premium to take advantage of the "reversion to mean" in volatility and if we sold up front it would decline more than back month.

    Hardy, are you a swing/daytrader?Use Fundamentals or technicals or both? Trading E-mini or YM is probably easier if you have a technical basis or stable plan. There are a ton of questions you need to answer before you decide. I believe optionsXpress has a paper trade page so you might open an...

    SPX Credit Spread Trader

    ok..since we are on the topic of volatility..the above was from OCT 21 last year. Interestingly IV was around 16 which a year later looks pretty high. This begs the question when looking at current vol's vs historic vols, how far back in history would you go? If we are doing month to month...
