Not interested in job. Would love to hear and share some new strategies with peeps on HN; specifically, what do you guys think are the new opportunities for the new coming year. Me personally, I think next year is going to be great. Vol should pick up with the Fed actually tapering and VIX returning to its real median of 16-20. So I think strategies that sell vol could be more effective. Here's a study on Quantopian for that: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=225532 http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=225532 I'm curious about how the rising interest rate will affect things such as gold and US treasuries; obviously, it should drive the yield/prices down as US dollar becomes more attractive. But specifically, how to pair trade it; here's some study on pair trading TLT and SPY: http://seekingalpha.com/article/2714185-the-spy-tlt-universal-investment-strategy http://seekingalpha.com/article/2714185-the-spy-tlt-universa... Finally, pair trading GDX and GLD; and also oil futures and oil refining/exploration companies. I'm not very familiar at all the dynamics there, I was told that the correlation of producer to spot is like an option being in the money, if oil or gold drops down or up to the threshold of break-even for producers; that changes the pricing dynamics of these companies. Anyways, let me know what you guys think. Thanks.
