Be special enough to get pedigree

Or

In other words, this reduces quite easily to things that are very hard. Invoking the "Why would it be otherwise"

@TCK_JRubano The option market is about...

1. supply and demand
2. selling options for premium
3. volatility skews, complex spreads
4. delta re-hedging, option replication
5. vanna, charm, zomma flows
6. realized skew dynamics, local vol, skewga
7. supply and demand

Twitter is an anti-compassion machine that stokes our tendency to dehumanize and even hate people we don't know personally.

Four little exercises I use to combat that and crank up the compassion in my mind:

Markets boil down to a few simple things. Buyers and sellers, aggressive buyers and sellers, and projecting where there will be more aggressive buyers and sellers.

The market doesn’t care about your 15 factor NLP model, it’s going to transact where-ever buyers and sellers want.

@Abhinavmir Inherently somewhere this phenomenon transpires across every field. Personal experience w traders, bankers, gym broz and anything that is hot but difficult to achieve results in.

Charlatans are everywhere. One can only put their head down and put in the work.

@SubhadipNandy16 A good understanding of macros is a blessing these days; cross hedge positions with currency has helped me stay in the game with decent gains.

Tracking USDJPY and EURUSD has been a better aid than tracking FII data.

1/ Quite an eventful day today.

First, it's interesting to see a -0.4% down move in $SPX accompanied by a lower $VIX.

Historically, it's not often that $VIX loses 2 pts on a half-percent sell-off in $SPX (chart below 👇)

It still sits >30, implying daily 2% moves in $SPX.

@westcoastbill I was at a lunch with Munger in 2009 where he told the whole table all the ways Tesla would fail.

Made me quite sad, but I told him I agreed with all those reasons & that we would probably die, but it was worth trying anyway.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being short volatility, same way there is nothing wrong with being long volatility.

Here’s where this whole thing goes wrong. When people become systematic and price agnostic, it leads to complete disaster. Markets don’t function that way.
