Great old threads about Gamma scalping

Quote from tman:

IV, I really like your method of comparing h to l vol vs. close to close vol for finding possible gamma scalp candidates. Have you done any screening based on that ratio?? How have your results been?? I think I may give that a try for June expiration. I will share my findings if there is any interest...........tman

I will run it on weekend again... I am scalping stocks with expected future vols expansion only now ; one of them happens to be a wild day swinger , check out CWTR price action for the last 3 days. I averaged 7 reversal per day so far.

what a week its has been for me ( gamma scalping) !!!
As one wise man said once : "haters , keep on hating"

You suck! :p

Seriously, are you automated, or at least using resting limits on your gamma scalps?

A hitman to do your dirty work, eh? Thats always nice. I am a one man show with a software engineering background, so I get to use the shovel. Sometimes, I get to drink from the firehose as well.
