What is the edge in your trade?

Did you read Parrondo's Paradox?

Yeah, I am still short half.

 

I bet, for each, you know exactly why you have an edge. The example you provided sounds like arb play, if I understood correctly.

 

Palm->face. Of course...

 

There are risk-positions that are essentially pure arbs but with variation margin. The issue is that they are cap-constrained ($100K to $500K notional).

 

I read that Forbes article before you had posted it, but I added when you reminded me. I won't say what it was worth as you'll want a cut.









650K

 

My edge: offering sacrifices to please Gods of Trading

 

Moooooooooooooooooother fucker. Nice.

 

I have no edge. Just hitching a ride on the bull bandwagon.

 

Okay, obviously, but the way you manage a trade is part of that expectancy.
