because of low volume and volatility hence hedge became cheaper?

Please explain

Somebody shook up options screens Thursday morning with a wager that the VIX Index will rise toward 40 -- and won’t be lower than 25 -- in July, up from about the 17 level where the volatility gauge currently trades. The trader appears to have made several block trades, buying a total of about...

Strong catalyst on shares buy back worth $1B. Sexy bounce on elevated volume on Friday 26th. Good pre-market action and gap-up. Despite all that, continued to sink and closed lower on the day. Was this because of overall market weakness? Continued fear on further Archegos / other HFs...

So, if IB is shit according to you, what broker/platform do you recommend?

You are wrong disregarding fundamentals' impact on market price of a particular security. Anyway, I'm not challenging your opinion as this is not in my interest to do so, but I seriously interested to know fundamentals behind BTC rally. Is capital inflow and increased amount of institutional...

What are the fundamentals that support >10k price level? Legit curious.

Do you have fact based evidence?

For those who are swing trading. How do you define your profit target for breakouts (from wedge, bases) when there is no clear resistance after breakout? Does your profit target depend on volatility? Market cap? Length of base/wedge (i.e. 6-8 weeks consolidation vs 12 weeks consolidation)? I...

Thank god it's not only me...

Basically, no matter which article I click, the news window will just show "No data to display". This happened few days ago and never went away. I restarted the platform, and after this point I'm not sure what to do. Has anyone encountered this and knows how to solve?

thank you very much! :)

Hello guys Not sure if anyone else this experienced, but I am not able to load Daily or Weekly chart for PLTR. I can see 1/5/15/30min/1hr/4hr, though. This is extremely frustrating. Screenshot is attached. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks, D.

Great, thank you for sharing this. I will keep this in mind for future. P.S. I used to be on ToS while paper trading, and charting on there was superb.

Thanks for advice. I consistently save the settings manually, however, saving the chart makes absolute sense. Will give it a try.

IB satisfies my humble needs for the exception of a few minor flaws it has. Besides, for me, as a beginner trader, cost of the platform plays a big role. IB is inexpensive compared to eSignal, which costs at least $56/month. Nevertheless, would love to hear your opinion on why you consider...

Basically, the title. I'm frustrated, confused, and a bit angry. It's whether there is a setting or the platform is not designed to keep commentaries for longer than 1 day (hardly believe in this theory, though). Would appreciate if someone can confirm either from aforementioned.

Great to hear, when you say manually I assume you record your session and then watch it? Another question; how many times / trades did you have to backtest manually until it resulted in optimal set of parameters and variables?

Made me laugh, but it’s true.
