    Calendar spreads

    George, thanks for input. After reading it I realized taht we can put one more restriction to make it easier. I simply comment on your point in a light of learning about how calendar trades work. Ad 2. this restriction is to tight for the purpose I stated before. We may talk about some specific...

    Calendar spreads

    I'm convinced that systematic approach is a viable (but not the only) way to learn about trading. Idea of ystematic approach is behind my methodology. For that reason I didn't try fully answer questions from the previous post in a detailed way. There is biggish area to cover. But it is not...

    I agree with Jim - those are loaded questions. I try to answer them as well, from another angle - but wont try hard. Later I will explain why. - How to figure out if the back leg will not be moving against us when opening new position? Short answer: the is no way to do it with certainty. For...

    Calendar spreads

    I'm happy to see traders interested in talking about trading :) I started to preparing semi-formal presentation on calendars but due to lack of interest I focused on another project. I'm still willing to participate in discussion and share my finding and my approach to calendars and time spreads...

    🚀 Condor Nest Workshop — Pre-Registration Now Open! 🚀

    Thomas, I do have assumptions, it can not be avoided, but I think I assumed in your favor. As you said I'm not your student and don't know anything about your trading - how should I? - thus my search for details of what you are offering. Now I know at least rough price, $500 which seems...

    🚀 Condor Nest Workshop — Pre-Registration Now Open! 🚀

    Thomas, Thank you for the link. I could watch recording on Aeromir site (others did not work for me). I say I found only a sales pitch there. Not that it is bad, but it was not what I was looking for. The method you plan to teach in your workshop, as I understand it, is indeed quite different...

    🚀 Condor Nest Workshop — Pre-Registration Now Open! 🚀

    Hi Tomas, For some reason YT throws age verification on me and can't watch it. I may try to circumvent restriction but prefer to watch it on some other, more free platform. Do you have other links to share? Wonder what did you put into this? And why? :)I suppose it is not the content that...

    Calendar spreads

    Thanks Mark, Just found RT recording and watched it. Thanks for making it short. I did not find much there about calendars worth discussing, maybe except VIX remarks, but they carry so broad meanings... You are right that nothing what TOS says about calendar can not be trusted, especially on...

    🚀 Condor Nest Workshop — Pre-Registration Now Open! 🚀

    Hi Tb2018, not sure if I read you before - your nick sounds familiar. I do not know your trading style but from brief description above it seems that you know what you are doing -a style which is opposite to many other strategies. Opposite in its core not in particular trades. Do you plan to...

    I missed it. Got e-mail notification about Mark Fenton's RT presentation, but thought it was scheduled for today. It happened yesterday. My bad. I will wait for recording. I remember Mark from the past when he was connected with Sheridan Mentoring. I liked his presentations (although I did not...

    Futures Broker-Platform Pair

    Thanks again for detailed answer. I'm just starting with daytrading and am busy with some other stuff but when ready to go life, or sim trading, I will start with AMP. I plan to go with CQG. I heard people do have issues with Rhytmic. I may look deeper into this later - for mow CQG will do just...

    Futures Broker-Platform Pair

    Thank you, Dave. I did call AMP and talked about details. As you said I pay for data. Luckily in my case it should be a small fee as I don't need L2 for now. Do you have opinion about AMP itself? They have good offer re trading platforms, unfortunately top rank ones require Win as OS - i did not...

    Futures Broker-Platform Pair

    Hi there, long time no see. I'm on a lookup for futures broker. After reviewing few, I've almost decided for AMP-TradinView pair. Not optimal but the best I could find at the moment for my needs. If you know this stuff: Do I have to pay data feed fees with this setup (I know AMP will cover TV...

    ATM Weekly Options Strategy Trade Alerts General Discussion

    OK we don't have to talk about SqRT. I just stick to what I've already concluded when investigating this topic. I know trades who did extensive work on that, including plotting cool 3D graphs, but I have not seen anybody successfully using SqRT concept in practical trading. Sure. it can be used...

    ATM Weekly Options Strategy Trade Alerts General Discussion

    Re ' in between' number. I dont mean some number between 252 and 365. It's a number between 0 and 1 for off-market days, where 0 results in 252 and 1 in 365. So this is some ratio, but ratio is not constant and depends mainly on IV levels and dets (and other stuff but usually of lesser...

    ATM Weekly Options Strategy Trade Alerts General Discussion

    I'm toking strictly about using SqRT. Can you tell how do you use it when trading calendars? I do not try to extract any secrets of you - if your method is be propriety - I respect that but then it falls into 'black box' category. Problem with SqRT (and others) is that it requites good, or at...

    ATM Weekly Options Strategy Trade Alerts General Discussion

    Nice performance of the service. > [square root of time] making it a valuable tool for risk management and trading strategies. Only in theory. SqRT can be (in theory) used to evaluate trades. Don't know how to use it in risk management. I think methodology here can be very vogue. Do you use...
