  1. You're 2x backs? 2X! One of the guys in the group does the 25-delta combo averaging 3/2 M2.

    Lol, don't be jealous that I find all my trades by browsing the Wall St. Journal stock quotes section. You can do it too! Who needs to know what a mutex is!??! NO ONE!

  3. "automates ps" "volatility"

    The guy thinks a 300-wide put should fill at mid and then starts a thread here asking why it didn't.

    Lol, it's called making liquidity... I figured you'd know what that is?

    Seriously, I'm not taking anything away from less automated or manual trading. Nor am I implying an "amateur" can't have a lot of fun and make a few bucks. There are many gifted "amateurs".

    All that said, it's important to understand the reason many of these deals are drying up is exactly because people have known about them and they're now being highly automated.

    Do you think my bot doesn't take earnings events into account?!??! Have fun, try to make a few bucks but don't be naive. And ffs... try to tilt the machine, not yourself ;-)

  5. You don't have a clue why... and anyone who has this shit automated would not run automation so remedial as to not model the x-section vol at price. And then ask here in a thread!

    No one asked... you're confused or just being presumptuous. I suggest you don't trade assets in the capital markets the way you trade ideas in this forum. GL/HF

  8. One of many you loser lol

    If you actually automated your garbage you'd be debit in an hour on frequency. Your only luck is that you're incompetent and your ******* sht is unable. So, it's a paradox.

  9. You're an enigma wrapped in a riddle and wrapped in an asshole. One of those Russian nested dolls. You are wholly ill-suited to this occupation, ser.

    Lol, sure... but clearly you missed the follow up posts in my journal. The conversation is meant to illustrate concepts not give away the whole store. Expecting me to post proprietary info is obviously ridiculous (see the journal itself).

    Anyway, think whatever you want Becky. I couldn't care less.
