Inner Light posted:Indeed TOS is down. The forums also seem to be slow today... I'm guessing unrelated. Unlikely. There is no way to show that ou absolutely would have sold. The only time when I worked brokerage that we actually made people whole was during the flash crash. Sorry, that sucks.

If you were interested in buying a boat and learning to sail, would you ask a successful boat captain with a bunch of boats and a bunch of years of sailing experience or would you say "nah, there are idiots who are boat captains" and go with some guy who watches boats sail around but has never been on board one (and who probably gets paid to talk about specific boats because his bosses like them)? https://www.amazon.com/Trump-Art-Deal-Donald-J/dp/0399594493

That right there is a book about boats that some guy who can't even spell "boat" paid someone to write. But it's okay because his dad gave him a "#1 Boat Captain" onesie after reading "Boat Captaining for Dummies" to him.

Plus, if you don’t like the boat you got, you can always scuttle it and get the boat maker people to give you another one. Edit Deutsch Boat is pretty reliable at giving you new boats, those suckers.

Relating to missing trades, a question on limit orders: these orders are visible to the market. At what volume of an order, and volume of a security/commodity is the presence of these orders impactful? Specifically, if I have a limit order on a small position I have as a lowly retail trader, is there any affect? Should I be wary at all about showing my hand?

VWAP indicates we should close under 2750 but the 2pm minute chart candle was green which has a high probably of closing above it...so /ES will close between 2739 and 2750??? Guess we'll see.

Josh Lyman posted:Retraced most of the 3:50pm candle. Last 10 minutes so treacherous. Yeah - that was interesting. Normally we get the 3:50 candle and the trend has a five to seven minute duration. Today it only made it three minutes. Then again, lower volume this afternoon.

Sepist posted:Opened 3:41, closed 3:50. Missed a big chunk of profit but the signs said to get in. Was the profit from this $525 - commissions? The TOS outage really sucked. Makes me wonder what would happen if people were in leveraged positions, if there was a major sudden negative news event, how well are brokers and exchanges stress tested to handle the traffic? I would bet not sufficiently. VVVVV Ughhh I still have so much to learn. It is incredibly opaque, the only way I can find this stuff is deep google searches to read articles on obscure trader blogs.

CHK just did a 1 for 200 share reverse split. I don't think I've ever seen a ratio that high before on something that was a legit (albeit failing) business.

So if you think that MBS are going to blow up ala 2008 and want to invest in the closest thing to credit default swaps as possible, what would you invest in? Shitputs in $NLY or $NRZ?

gay picnic defence posted:Are these the junk bonds the Fed is going to vacuum up? Maybe. What's surprising to me is that $DVN aka Devon Energy or one of $CHK's main competitors still has their bonds trading about par. Considering $CHK is probably going bankrupt, Devon would be the next major US energy player to go IMO.

Just checked and for the first time in a while I'm holding a (small) net long position. I've been beaten into submission. Long live the Fed. But I'm still not buying into this market, I'm ready to reverse course at any moment.
