Where do you guys go for general & macro news?

Should be good. I hear the local kiwi ladies ingest a very healthy diet.

 

I like to read FT in the morning for a global perspective on what's going on (plus that's what global macro managers read, so I can be at least similarly informed).

After that, I hop onto the Bloomberg and load up my macro launchpad. I like to see global markets (equity indices/futures, rates, FX, commodities, etc.) and then see if any major economic data has been released.

 

Quite similar to my morning routine.

 

Thank you for saying that.


actually, almost all the news is meant for investors & not traders.
Also, professional writers tend to be very slow in publishing their news.

So traders should avoid reading such news.
If we do want to read, read with a pinch of salt, or with our eyes closed.

 

Expiry? How far out do you buy your options?

 

Twitter + Economic Calendar

 

depends on how they are priced but I usually shoot for 3m-1y.

 

only down 50% on my BB position today instead of 90% haha.

 

You're up 400% on your BB position since yesterday!

Roll it into AMC?

 

naaaaahhhh I think BB has a solid chance right now with the overall meme pump that's going on...lots of retails experiencing FOMO right now buying BB only because $/share is lower than AMC.
