Asiaprop, dude, seriously, you gotta learn to chill out a little here. What's with the ad hominem attacks and all that with brownegg? It's not like he is some slime-arsed vendor selling his shite wares here that needs to be crapped on. He has his views on current vol and so do you - and you disagree. Stiff shit. Don't worry about it that much.
no issue with that, what I have a problem with is someone who makes false claims about the current environment we are in. A quick check at realized vols over the past 2-3 months should refresh the mind. I find it generally hard to argue about realized vols, but as I just found out there are people who seemingly do not have an issue with that ;-) Plus it itches to sit still when being obviously misquoted. Otherwise, peace to all...
Thanks for the effort, but too little, too late. I'm not now and have never been a quant-- I most certainly am not Aaron Brown, but that seems like it would be fun-- Asiaprop, it wasn't me who misquoted you. This site is a total waste of time. I asked the mods to delete my username but they won't do it... so what's here is what's here. Good luck to everyone.
"Correlations don't matter in vol trading? Ok. I'll be sure to let all the index/dispersion traders know." Is this not what you wrote (page 6)? Thats never what I claimed or said. Please leave if you cannot even stand to what you wrote...
