    This is all very fluffy info. Nothing here that will make you money. Also Shelly Natenberg is not a trader. He only discusses theory. If you want to experience real pain go buy some upside calls and sell futures delta neutral against them during a trend day up. You’ll be given no chance to scalp. And by the end of the day you will have lost on your calls and lost big on your futures. While the market maker, who had zero idea where the underlying was going, wins and wins. I’m not saying it isn’t possible to make a lot of money. It is. You have to become an expert is managing risk. This is your edge.

    • @ribeye1062
      @ribeye1062 14 дней назад

      And btw, the best traders on the planet learned their risk management skills by trading the underlying. And not by predicting direction. Nobody can do that with any level of consistency. Options market makers only understand their Greeks and how to manage their risk. A very skilled futures or stock trader will use market makers for what their purpose is. Risk offsets. And, > this is the most important part, parlays. Options give a skilled trader incredible opportunities where you can go from flat to short 200 futures below a line that you can convert and now you’re riding long 200 futures up 10 points with very defined risk. This is very doable way to make $100k a day. And with 0DTE these opportunities exist every day of the week.

    Hi QuanPy, thanks for the great video! One question do you have any detailed explain or recommended material for the portfolio return at the t, the formula you show up on the right upper corner from 11:35? I know single stock Brownian Motion, but I am not following why portfolio return is in that form and why use timeseries mean return as level. Also should it depend on t as well as BM? Many Thanks!

      Hi there, good question. You’re assuming only two outcomes here, up and down and that the direction change is a large enough effect size to make a profit. Otherwise as you are implying you could just short / go the other direction in your strategy and it would be profitable. Once you take into consideration fees (transaction and paying bid-ask spread), you’ll find that very few strategies have a true sharpe ratio that is significantly higher than 0.

    Well i think non normal error distribution caused by non monotonous growth the chart in a real.. You trying to multiply perfect line and perfect sin() and the modeling chart will growths monotonous while the real one - not. And of course You will get some excesses thant moment the real chart will start to grow like parabolic in average.. As for me thats pretty obviously.. I think the real chart should be additionally averaged, thats makes the average error bigger but makes it close to normal... (There is why You started to talk to try ARIMA like model i think..) Or to try the rose noise, i heard someone using to modeling the stock prices.. But the season decomposition with Fourier i think should be awesome to timing the stock market..

I am wondering if I can do the same thing for stock prices by assuming certain distribution such as GBM?

    Newbes may become frustrated by this video ... but ... hes telling truth ... Investors gain success only by developping strategies beyond well known infos and models. Total transparency causes no chance for mechanical/software-driven success. First you have to learn all about common tools and strategies ... then you have to select and check ... then make a decision about your own strategy ... then check the markets for chances ... Dont forget - the closer you stay at mechanical workflows, automated ones the more compettitors you get ... and the more you develop your own system the more risk you take until reality fits to it.

    As an Algorithmic Trading Quant, which is the most exclusive and cryptic type of Quant, I can objectivelly and without any bias that this role is meant only for men who have an eidetic memory, prophetic vision, omniscient sagacity and a coruscant brilliancy to easily master fields which are by nature both recondite and often out of reach for the common genius. Basically, a quant is a person who has a profitable trading algorithm with a track record which has stood the test of time. Also, if you're a lower class of Quant, you're basically a data scientist or wanker. If you think physics and maths is hard, remind yourself that those guys try to be quants and fail so hard they start to teach physics to PhD.

  • @AaronLloyd-Jones

    The Black and Scholes equation is wrong: The Black and Scholes (risk-neutral) premium is the first moment of the option expiry for an asset that has all risk and no market return (the risk-neutral measure), that which has been debased of market return (by holding portfolio returns fixed flat at r). This idiotic asset (the risk-neutral measure) is stochastically dominated by bonds in that bonds have the same return (r) but without the risk whilst it is stochastically dominated by stocks since stocks earn market return for the equivalent amount of risk: bonds have LOWER RISK for the SAME RETURN as the debased market asset (the risk-neutral measure) whilst stocks have HIGHER RETURN for the SAME RISK as the debased market asset (the risk-neutral measure) Either way, the 'risk-neutral measure' is totally idiotic and stochastically dominated by all non-redundant asset classes. It is not deep and it is not abstract. All it is is the market asset without return (which is then used to price the derivative and so is wrong and inaccurate). If a trader wants an option, then he must not take an offsetting position that nullifies the option position. There is nothing risk-neutral about that. An option premium must have a mean mu in the drift term, otherwise it is wrong... wrong for derivatives and wrong for efficient and non-communist finance. nb: I had to say 'no risk' when I sat several of the courses in undergraduate (almost two decades ago). It was clear as day to me then that it was inaccurate (and proved by me definitively now more than one decade ago).
