  3. I'll update my current short, but will probably stop posting for a while. The inmates are running the asylum and there is seemingly no upside to posting to what's becoming a Yahoo msg board.

    If you trade vol or I know you... hit me up in PM and I'll send you a link to our Discord.

  4. I am flat here at 2530-35. I am not holding positions into the weekend. Up ~50% for 2020.

    Let me ask this, you appear to trade live in addition to algo trading. It appears you also have some indicators driving some of your live decisions. Are these "custom" indicators or run of the mill stuff? I guess to put it bluntly, how much of the decisions are experience driven as opposed to data driven?....I struggle holding to some positions that I take on logic and end up dumping on emotion.

    @PoopyDeek Come on dest, you are now part of my indicator package.

    ET has gone downhill yes but there is some value. If it's chatter you are looking for I can post my single name weeklies but I'm not moving size.

    You'll be back.

  7. The guy who I work with says that I am 70% discretionary, so I will go with that, bc he's published in compsci. It's all stuff derived from Tudor -> Inventure Ranger that was working on Sparc20s until 2018.

    I "subscribe" to an analytic start-up founded by two unimelb phys-guys. The rest is pattern recog and a subscription to The Economist.

    My wife says I am 100% discretionary as I routinely toss-out signals. I dunno.

    I guess that's likely the ultimate goal of AI algos, to do rule based trading but adjust according to changing market condition inputs.

    Am still curious about the numbers you're looking at as you pull the trigger..... Though can't really discount experience

    For noobs such as myself out there:
