I work in this space, the only way to get exposure to these is via equity swap using a QFII's capital. I.e. you must be a foreign institutional investor with an existing relationship to a QFII. Retail flow is not supported :) (although

As an institutional trader with a CS & Geography background, I have been absolutely engrossed by this series, I even bought the authors book!

To me there seems to be a certain sort of karma in this. Momentum prop trading doesn't really add value to anything in my opinion (cue the arguments that momentum prop trading somehow adds real value to our society). Yet some momentum

You do realise that the human mind is incredibly good at "recognising/identifying" "patterns" in random data.

Trust me he is talking about the large players - not all of them but a decent chunk of them.

Can somebody tell me if the books are available in English? Everything seems to point they are French only. Also are 5, 6 - 5|6 and 0 - 1 all separate pieces of literature?

Yes - although he has mixed credibility with original bitcoin research.

Incorrect. ETF's are largely never priced at the price of the underlying basket. They often trade rich or under based on the availability, relative borrow rates and liquidity of the individual names. Sure some program trading desks wil

If they are unwilling to commit capital, research or development then stuff them.

Hi, apologies for the slow reply. Yes predominately Monte-carlo simulations are used. If you are interested in the field an easy entry point is Paul Wilmotts "Introduction to Quantitative Finance".

TL;DR: Those who are leaving will not be missed. Others who see legitimate business opportunities in this space will fill the void by those that have departed and reap the rewards.

Honestly this all just seems like a bunch on neck beards who dont understand business. I fail to see how this is not a positive for consumers.

Hmmm, practically speaking pricing European Options using simulations is not recommended when you can use a beautiful close formed solution (along the lines of a modified Garman–Kohlhagen model)! But for other styles american, quantos, barr

Because Goog wouldnt want to be responsible for burning out a users camera flash. Old school Nokia phones are GOAT and had special tested LED's that obviously wouldn't expire after 20mins of run time.

BTC will become the global CONSUMER method of exchanging value. Up and only up (of course volatility will persist during the initial stages of breakout). Exciting times are ahead.

The two are not mutually exclusive but in fact highly correlated. I would argue adoption is a function of market cap, volume and price. Stability will come, but BTC has a lot of appreciation to get through which will not be easy.

It's from a FICC research team - you don't issue a press release (albeit this is initiating coverage).

I think the sheer fact that this exists, BTC is on BBG and regularly mentioned in FT etc means the only way is up.

Dollar cost averaging is not an effective strategy (buying dips), all capital upfront is your best bet.

It genuinely baffles me that you may think otherwise?

A lot of technology and software companies are also socially worthless. What a load of drivel.

Still cant see apple approving that. I also don't think sandboxed and non jail broken apps can modify hardware power states.
