Re: Trading vs ?
In Response To: Trading vs ? ()

vs? is a good thing to trade (do you go long vs or short vs?; What is the implied voaltility on vs right now?)
This is a very serious subject
This is a very different game:
1. No Second Prize
2. Intelligence does NOT win the day
3.95% of players lose long term and yet people flock
4. Part of this game (the Hedging and Risk Trnsfer functions) is a BLESSING TO SOCIETY
5. Nowhere does time manipulation play such important role
6. The Derivative backgrounde is so huge (over 5 trillion a day) and yet hidden from the common eye
7. The idea that this is a game of 3 outcomes (up, down, sideways) is such a Freaking lie
8. This game is the antithesis of everything we deem "normal" in life

the list goes on and on. So in a game with such small positive expectancy-- no wonder the crooks abound
It is probably the toughest game in the world
