Quote from ASusilovic:

It´s the famous Goldman Sachs volatility trade. From June 2007- Oct 2007 they made 1.5 billion that way. Slowing down vola a bit makes them huge profits for Q2, coupled with fixed income spread trading : et voila !

Interesting, thanks.

Don't be too hard on yourself man. We all make those "blunders". No individual or entity is more perfect other than market itself. If we're seeking perfection in this business, we're in the wrong business. This melody should ease your pain. Peace.

One of you guys needs to man up and hit the bid with some lots.

Unfortunately a 1000 lots is like breakfast for some algos nowadays.
