  1. Well, that explains a lot, but I don't judge. Just looking for the light in the tunnel.

    Did you read and study the old options material here?

  4. I'll spend time on that, but that's very broad. I'm looking for a specific thing and already out of keywords for research purposes.

    the choices given in this thread give you what you want. You can back out the implied probabilities and compare payoffs.

    Start with destriero and go backward to his previous handles like Atticus and riskarb.
    While reading his posts, you will encounter some other valid users, check them out.

    Their journals, option section threads and single post... even when arguments get heated because of stupidity, some pearls are dropped.

    There is quite a bit to take in, and if you do not understand a part of a topic you are interested in, take note and research.

  7. Only thing I took from this thread today is to find out about Sigma and can I use it with my strategy.

  9. It's just cooler than stating stdev.

    VAST -> vol as synthetic time. Learn about synthetic equivalence as it is a huge impact when trading complex orders in large size.

    Honestly, the only trades that I shared here with fills were bog-standard punts in flies, futures D1, directional calls, etc. My "dest everything journal" was my best run in D1 and vol. $18MM in <2Y. My exotic stuff is guarded IP.
