1. every companies that i worked at, use Windows and Office. Microsoft will never have to worry about their bread and butter. There is only one company that i work at use Google office. Office is now a subscription. there's your long term. Microsoft have a lot of software that is too deep inside every Corporation around the world. 2. Windows/Office is not even Microsoft money maker. Its Azure. that's monthly revenue. 3. Microsoft is still strong in developer community. SQL, Windows Server, VS studio, VS code, github...etc. even with news like France ditching Windows, i doubt the French corporation will and didn't we saw this movie before. Germany also ditched Windows for linux. Microsoft is still making money.

I mean, it seems like everything should be constricting but the USA is featuring an administration that is systematically deregulating as much as possible as quickly as possible. The climate for workers is fucked but the climate for individual mega-business success and oligarchs is not if you see through the smoke. Space sector is going to do some crazy things with the impending Spacex IPO. In the near future years (now to 2030) there is going to be a China VS USA space race, its inevitable. Any AI related business are now going from "AI is overhyped and a bubble" to the current situation of "AI has actually eliminated job sectors of the economy." Parking as much cash in Google is kind of my mentality, I am tempted to sell AMZN, MSFT, APPL, and just consolidate into Google.

$BUFF.V $BLPTF - LET'S TALK WHY THIS STOCK CAN MOVE 1000% FROM HERE AND PRODUCT GRADES! Also, Buffalo Potash Newly public $BUFF.V or OTC $BLPTF VS. $MLP.V Millennial Potash that ran over 1000% in 2025! Potash Type- Buffalo Potash ( $BUFF.V) — Sylvinite (primarily sylvite + halite). This is the classic, high-value Saskatchewan-style potash. It is the easiest and most efficient type for solution mining (exactly what their patented HLD technology targets). Millennial Potash ( $MLP.V) — Mainly Carnallitite (carnallite dominant), with minor sylvinite zones. Their giant Banio Project in Gabon is a thick, layered evaporite deposit where carnallite is the primary mineral, and sylvinite occurs only in limited higher-grade pockets (often as secondary replacement). Grade Comparison (who has the better grade?) Buffalo has significantly better (higher) grade: Buffalo (Disley Project): High-grade sylvinite seams frequently 40–56% KCl, with optimal intervals averaging 44–49% KCl (e.g., 12.2 m @ 48.7%, 12.8 m @ 45.0%, 10.8 m @ 44.2%). They selectively target seams >30% KCl and ≥1 m thick. Millennial (Banio Project): Bulk resource is carnallitite grading ~15.4–15.7% KCl (overall M+I resource ~15.6% KCl). Their minor sylvinite zones are higher at ~24% KCl, but represent only a small portion of the resource. Clear winner on grade: Buffalo — their targeted seams are roughly 2–3x higher grade than Millennial’s main carnallitite resource.Quick ContextHigher grade (like Buffalo’s) usually means better economics, higher recovery, and lower processing costs per ton of finished MOP fertilizer. Millennial’s advantage is massive scale (billions of tonnes) and very thick intersections, which can support large production despite the lower average grade. Their project is designed around solution mining of the thick carnallitite layers. In short: Buffalo = higher-grade, cleaner sylvite/sylvinite (better quality for selective solution mining). Millennial = much larger tonnage but lower-grade carnallite-dominant deposit. $BUFF.V OTC $BLPTF means low cost high value producer with so much more advantages than $MLP.V

> You keep making this US vs Iran... Almost as if the US and Iran are at war with each other. > The "VS Iran" part of the conversation is effectively 0% of the equation. How so? How does *Iran* not figure into the discussion? > Unless you glass them their ability to hurt the US will continue for however long they want to do it. 1) I kinda doubt it. Hard to fight a war when your economy has completely collapsed. 2) Hurt us how? By launching drones at GCC countries? That hurts GCC countries, I don't think it does much to hurt us. > US has no path to make them do it Bomb them into a stone age, turn and walk away. If Iran wants to continue harassing shipping in the Strait, that can be a problem for GCC countries and their customers in Asia. > (The oil islands don't count, you need boots on the mainland) Boots on the mainland to do what? > I encourage you to look for any source that says US is likely to force open the strait through force. I encourage you to understand the economics here: the U.S. doesn't really have to care whether the Strait is open or not. The GCC cares, and we're allies, but as long as our allies think we did everything we could to stop that madman Iran from being a nutter, then there isn't much of a reason for us to care. > It doesn't matter if someone else can do it How so? You just said it's what decides what currency oil is denominated in? > if US can't then they wont trade in dollars. Why not? > Oil is traded in dollars for protection. Actually, it's traded in dollars for *convenience*, but again, even if we suppose what you're saying is true, your statement makes no sense. Why would it switch, if switching didn't offer any protection? > People don't pay protection money if it doesn't work. No one's paying protection money. That's not how petrodollars even work. It's not like the U.S. is taking 2% off of every oil transaction. > There doesn't have to be a single alternative. Actually there does, because it becomes super inconvenient if everyone's not using the same currency. Again, it's not about protection, it's about convenience. > You seem to think Trump has some kind of choice. So you're saying he has no choice but to blow up Iran's desalination plants...? > If the gulf region tells him to do or not do something on threat of loss of petro dollar he'll do it. 1) I don't think the petrodollar is as important as you imagine it, 2) I'm pretty sure if Iran blew up the GCC's water desalination plants, the GCC would ABSOLUTELY tell Trump to blow up Iran's in retaliation. > A threat to their desalination plants(Which was made by Iran) is a scenario they would threaten ditch of petrodollar. Yeah, again, I think you've misunderstood both what the petrodollar is, and also the mindset of the GCC. They don't like Iran. They aren't friends. They want Iran crippled, they have no interest in being extorted by Iran going forward. > If they do this then the world knows the next time this happens they'll give up and they'll bomb Iran longer extract more concessions. The strong do what they will, the weak suffer what they must. > Any deal made has been shown to be temporary and at the whims of people like Trump.

Literally no one is suggesting it's possible. >ability to prevent Iran from blowing up desalination plants? It doesn't matter if someone else can do it, if US can't then they wont trade in dollars. Oil is traded in dollars for protection. People don't pay protection money if it doesn't work. There doesn't have to be a single alternative. You seem to think Trump has some kind of choice.

THE MARKET SOLD THE ENTIRE MEMORY SECTOR ON A PAPER IT DID NOT READ. HERE IS WHAT TURBOQUANT ACTUALLY DOES VS WHAT THE MARKET THINKS IT DOES. $MU down 5.7% intraday. $WDC down 6.5%. The whole sector got hit. Let me walk through the bear case and the bull case. 1) What the market heard: Google found a way to compress memory demand by 6x. Memory companies are in trouble. Simple story, sell everything. 2) What TurboQuant actually does: It compresses KV cache to 3 bits. KV cache is one subcategory of memory used during inference only. It does not touch model weights. It does not touch training. It was tested on models up to 8B parameters only. No results on 70B+ or mixture-of-experts architectures. Production deployment is 6-12 months away minimum. 3) What the media got wrong: Financial media called it a "50% cost reduction" and "6x total memory demand reduction." The paper makes no such claim. KV cache is a fraction of total GPU memory. Compressing a fraction is not compressing the whole.

You've got a point, but I was talking about how Americas threshold for acceptable casualties in war is a lot lower than any other country. No military outside of America and a select other Western nations care for their soldiers the same way. I was referencing what OP said about us VS Russia and they're right that's one of the strengths of a country like Russia, China etc.

Competition is kicking their ass big time here at home and in China. They don’t own sht - no tech, no hardware, nothing. Not to mention they failed to integrate with the MS software suite. Altman had everything handed to him on a silver platter, the tech, the MS ecosystem (GitHub, VS code, Azure, Teams etc etc etc) what he does? Goes on an endless podcast spreading fear of job loss and trolling software devs, all while investing massively in a useless GIf generator. And everyone understands that. Google - last to the game, steps in and crushes it with Antogravity. This is vision, this is competitiveness. OpenAI is dead and the faster MS cuts that stupid appendix the better for them.

===> How big of a deal is the Strait of Hormuz actually? Feels like this could spiral into a global economic problem . No big deal actually for self-sufficient regions like Africa. Blessed are self-sufficient regions like Africa and South America, who need absolutely nothing from the rest of the world, they have all the resources and markets they need within their regions: Self-sufficient regions like Africa and South America, who need absolutely nothing from the rest of the world, are the guarantors of a multipolar world order. There is no alternative to multipolarity in this diverse world, Africans and others are proud to ensure that: diverse peoples ===> diverse interests ===> diverse ideologies ===> diverse values ===> diverse aspirations Therefore, Africans would accept a new world order only if it meets certain conditions like, 1. It must be controlled by Africans (of course, not just by Africans) 2. It must advance African interests (of course, those of other regions too) 3. It must have African official languages (of course, languages from other regions too) . The two regions would be interested in a world order only if it could offer them more than they could offer themselves. At this point, Africa is more industrialized than USA, and is rapidly industrializing by increasing intra-African trade, banning the export of unprocessed and dirt cheap raw materials and by building a continental arms industry. Afrocentrism is now emerging as the dominant ideology on the continent and among blacks abroad. The Africans are aware of their history as creators of the greatest civilization in the history of the world (such thinking reflects the fast spread of the Afrocentrism ideology). Africans are now starting to view religions, above all the non-African ones, from the perspective of "demonic possession", as the late Dr. Amos Wilson used to call it, or that of being POSSESSED BY ALIEN SPIRITS. Understand religions as ideologies, also Afrocentrism (simply put, it is about Ancient Egypt and African perspectives), Sinocentrism, Hinducentrism, etc. Africans who are followers of non-African religions are like Africans who are possessed by alien spirits.  Those possessed Africans have been the troublemakers on the continent for decades or centuries, leading to wars, civil wars, decline and even destruction of countries.  The lesson learned from tolerating non-African religions on the continent is, they will be tolerated on the continent, only if they are Africanized. . A lot has changed in recent years and decades, sadly not in favour of European descent people. For example, European descent people are now being denied free access to the minds of the mighty Global Southerners, a gigantic privilege they enjoyed for hundreds of years. The last 500 years they talked talked and talked, and we found out, all what they said could be put in two categories, 1. lie and deception and 2. self-interest driven BS . The Africans need absolutely nothing from non-Africans, let alone capital, that they can print in their central banks, even not technology, as they are now in a position to reverse engineer every Western product. In past millennia and centuries, it was Europeans who copied from Africans, now it is the other way around: . Really, African countries do not need to go to anywhere to finance infrastructure projects.  The African countries could simply print their own money, and give that money to contractors. The contractors will then buy the necessary inputs with that money from the local market and build the infrastructure.  What inputs are necessary in infrastructure projects ? Steel Glass  Cement Asphalt  Manpower Machinery Most African countries have those things locally available. . What a funny situation, at this moment, the mighty Global Southerners have growth and deflation at the same time (not deflation and stagnation), while Westerners have inflation and stagnation (not inflation and growth) at the same time, and with an aging population.  For example in Africa, they have a giant backlog of infrastructure projects, that will ensure decades of growth on the continent. Roosevelt's Public Works Administration from 1933 European calendar, with more than 34 000 projects, including the construction of airports, large dams, major warships, bridges, schools and hospitals, is peanuts compared to what is happening now in Africa. These guys can now finish the construction of apartment buildings in just 90 days, all that using local resources. . Today African countries are more industrialized than USA: GDP by sector (Typical African country) . Agriculture: 35.5% Industry: 23.11% Services: 36.81% . . GDP by sector (USA) . Agriculture: 0.9% Industry: 18.9% Services: 80.2% . The statistics are saying that, African countries are more industrialized than USA (Industry: 23.11% VS Industry: 18.9%)

Unusual Whales' Periscope has the correct dealer positioning. Pretty sure SpotGamma is largely a naive model, meaning they make a broad assumption that customers selling calls to dealers and buy puts for protection. At which point, you might as well just use spyvsgme.com for free. Unusual Whales also has a helpful data plot of call and put premiums in $SPY, which you can then also change to see the overall premiums of the stocks contained in the ETF, or the market as a whole. I've found cycling through those 3 plus VIX options premiums have been very very useful in combination with Periscope. The net premiums can give you an overall bullish or bearish slant, see when premiums fall or are nearing reversal, especially with VIX premiums, then use Periscope to help pick targets for entries and exits. The only other SPX options services I would consider adding to Unusual Whales with Periscope is OptionsDepth or VS3D, which give gradient maps on gamma and charm along with "boundaries" that help you visualize where major support/resistance can be as well as magnetic spots we could get drawn towards at the close. The visualizations are pretty slick, but, with enough time spent with the more raw data bars in Periscope, you can still do very, very well and still understand the overall picture.

how much % of worldwide oil is traded via hormuz VS rest of the world? would it really be a big impact? i’m genuinely surprised that Iran with its conditions & internal instability & low economy, could really have the power to hold US by its balls so easily

Winter-Extension-366

Can you tell me which dashboards you refer to? We run VS3D and our whole mission is to systematically model all of the flows in the index space which are rules based and quantifiable, alongside an estimate of AUM/volumes. Love to see who else is down this rabbithole with any efficacy.

Winter-Extension-366

Just know that you get what you pay for- if you don't have the right position and an accurate model around it, you may as well just be randomizing numbers on a chart and trading off of it. Hedging is explicitly determined by the position- literal long/short on every single contract must be correct- garbage in, garbage out. And I can say from experience having been a market maker that none of the tools out there actually get it all correct- this is why we started VS3D. I'm not here to market but this is my domain- I will just encourage you to think about something critical. When you come across a free GEX service, it's free for a reason. The person building it has no expertise they could monetize elsewhere. They have no data subscription or licensing fee associated with the data they provide- because there is nothing special about the data they provide. You cannot get a hedging influence modeled from OI- you just get a scaled representation of OI- a neat looking toy with no efficacy unless everyone makes trades based on the bad output of a popular toy.

Winter-Extension-366

If you are a SPY trader then you should know that the price action is principally driven by the hedging flows of the SPX option position held by hedgers (accounts which clear as type: "market maker", for our purposes). I don't say this to market ourselves but VS3D by VolSignals (yes it's my firm- can I even mention my own service/platform?) is designed by two of us (Matt and I) who actually spent our careers market making for large index vol trading firms. The software/platform is then built by two developers who built firm-wide analytics supporting the market making arm of one of the largest firms in the industry. We are new(er) to the space, but ultimately we are here because every entity on your list above sells something which they do not understand nor model correctly

Intelligent_Kick_436

I appreciate the detailed and candid response, and 100% agree with your motivation in creating VS3D, and the reward and enjoyment it's giving you (I would do the same!) I do follow your youtube videos (among others), and have learded a lot - you have personally taken my own knowledge from State 1 to State 2 -> for that, a big thank you! Last week you mentioned getting a trade wrong; the market actually "came back up", but you thought the dip buyers would get burned and the market would crater further (which was the scenario that played out this week, with Friday the market just kept collapsing down further). These types of outlier days are what can leave traders on the wrong side; where such a tool like your can (and should be) particularly helpful to get that edge to get out or in a trade if it's showing that the largest cohorts are going to predictably keep selling down futures all day, and sell even harder into the close. But seeing you got that wrong when you've got the best data of this large cohort right in front of you, tells me it might not be as predictive. Likewise, I would love to see some promotion of your own trades this week based on what you saw in VS3D, ahead of time, showing that this cohort would be selling futures (and underlying) most of Friday (and thus landed an easy win for you, when for most the 'buy the dip' would have failed?).

Winter-Extension-366

Great- albeit very typical comment/criticism-I share virtually all the trades I make, when I make them, in VS Pro, which is our Discord community. Obviously I'm using our VS3D data to inform my view, and I go in depth as much as I can every time to explain clearly the rationale for the trade by way of the data. I have developed a framework over time which has made me more consistently profitable in my personal account than I ever imagined- and it has been entirely \*after\* leaving market making and spending more time with the market-wide data we have in VS3D, making mistakes along the way in my approach and process- and refining the framework to do exactly what I want it to do: Exploit the factors we capture in the platform — Gamma, Charm and Vanna- but surprisingly the framework has been built around navigation of levels using 0DTE positioning as the guide to intraday range behavior. I'd say a few things in response to this common criticism: (1) You should see the amount of data we have and how frequently it changes. We simulate greek hedging model paths for the day forward, using current positioning data. That simulation itself has thousands of datapoints even if you just contain the dataset to the MAD implied by the daily straddle. >> but wait, that data changes intraday in multiple dimensions... positions change with trades; Greeks changes with Implied volatilities and spot changes- and we model these ourselves. It's a tremendous amount of data to capture, produce & store; parameterize, systematize & sample; and then we haven't even scratched the surface of how complex a backtest would be when mapping different options trading strategies, along with entries and exits, to the data. (2) You and everyone else with this comment/critique makes an obvious error: assuming we share everything we capture with the public. No. We don't. Hands down, we don't reveal every single thing we capture with our data- and our experience- in our platform. There are certain things we'll just never share. Because it will be exploited by people like Benn Eifert or Kris Sidial; or worse(?)... copied by firms like SG. (3) You can see plainly from my content (Youtube, X, Discord) that I am a very manual/discretionary trader. The thought of setting up some machine/algo to run 24/7 to scrape edge from the market as I tinker with settings- is about as appealing to me as a perpetual root canal., I enjoy people- I enjoy risk- I enjoy everything about what we're doing. (4) I can give 100 traders the answer to the question: "Where will the market settle today?"- and 80 of them will put on different trades to take advantage of that insight. The other 20 will somehow fail and lose money. (5) Any trader should want some form of carry. Anyone who has a real life, a real budget, a real family and people depending on them- would never choose the variance of trading without a business around to support it foundationally. I'm surprised I have to say this but then I realize most traders online are hobbyists or carry-light (no family/kids/dependents etc) Anyways- I don't share the trades I make to VS3D except for inside the onboarding sessions. I am very sensitive to avoid producing a trade callout service. What we do is model the buying and selling of a dominant market participant- that's what VS3D is. I share my trades daily along with more commentary and rationale for them than you'll ever find anyone else in this domain giving- I \*promise you that\*. And for people really interested in rabbit holes and making the most of this data, Matt and I do lead a small group Mentorship where we share some things to (screened) students which we'll never articulate on a social media feed. Yes, we are legitimate- you can check our FINRA records. I'd share my ten years of internal reviews if you want to see what other professionals think about my trading acumen. Yes, we have to do marketing for the business part of what we're doing- and most importantly, "no"- the fact that we collect money for our expertise does not invalidate our expertise. It just means we got sick and tired of being stifled at firms without the upside we wanted and place a huge premium on the freedom that comes with what we are doing now. If you have follow ups I'm happy to answer!

I'll add that for awhile volsignal marketed and championed OD (before he pursued VS3D). OD was quite literally the very first service to do it correctly and VS platform essentially called out every single other service as incorrect. But now VS3D was deployed mainly because VS had a lot of goals and vision planned but they couldn't see eye to eye on the functions. So it was an amicable breakup so to speak.  So with that said here is my take: UW is a no no. They misread desk papers and gave literal opposite summary of what the author conveyed. Ironically VS had to correct them because he was friends of said author. Also they did the gex wrong till their recent deployment of the new service and the tape flow service they do is noise at best for various reasons (VS explains why vast majority of tape flows are wrong)  OD is good if you are on a budget. Has some functionalities but one of my BIGGEST complaints, and for many others, was the stability and performance issues that just randomly happen.  Vs3d is the caviar of the gex services. They are curated by former professionals of the financial world (vetted also publicly by various other professionals). The sw is built by prop engineers with real experience so the performance/stability has been good. Also their positioning data is more complete and I know this because I compared OD/vs3d and on some days it matters a lot. The network of the professionals is quite nice. They also have professionally tagged order flow for vix/spx/es so it isn't a guess like many others do.  And before folks make up stuff : - no they are not hack. Benn eiffert himself publicly vetted volsignal author. And vs has many others who are licensed professional brokers, vol traders, market makers etc... Who have vouched for him  - the reason they do this is because they hated all the misinformation that existed and are pretty passionate about teaching.  - no they are not stop loss hunting your 20 dollar robinhood port. Market makers don't do that 

Baraxton

As a user of VS3D, I can attest to its efficacy - it provides actionable data to make decisions with. Regarding why they sell it as a service: it’s expensive to provide the data and build the infrastructure for such a platform. Why not crowdsource the cost? You can profit both ways.

Baraxton

I don’t trust/use many tools, but VS3D is fantastic. Dan (the founder) is such a great educator.

Always check the Narrative VS Reality: "Management's growth narrative increasingly conflicts with execution reality, particularly in international markets and men's category expansion. Analysis of key management claims against actual performance reveals growing gaps: **CLAIM**: "International markets represent our biggest growth opportunity with plans to quadruple revenue outside North America by 2026" **EVIDENCE**: Q3 2025 results showed international revenue growth of only 15% year-over-year, well below the 35%+ required to meet quadrupling target. China same-store sales turned negative in Q4 2025. **VERDICT**: Significantly behind target, management's international expansion timeline appears unrealistic" See the full report: [https://www.thestockdossier.com/investigation/22c9a946-4519-4f41-9bff-466c87704d5d](https://www.thestockdossier.com/investigation/22c9a946-4519-4f41-9bff-466c87704d5d)

We are now at a very interesting situation where it is the lies of the US / them doing anything possible to keep the price down VS the reality of the situation which should be forcing prices up stratospherically. I'm betting on reality winning the day, but never underestime the power of lies, corrupt media and the biggest military on the planet.

We Piloted copilot last year and with some training and a demo repo update to use the tools. I did this entirely in VS Code with basic extensions, which was nice. I took a few months to adopt Copilot into my workflows for troubelshooting and scripting. I built a 'workspace' with custom/generic instructions, a project manifest type doc to start with or update from chat, and a VS code task to input a project name and create a 'workspace'. I've used this to accelerate many things like: 1. Pull in PDF docs on a legacy API, process to makrdown, and provide call/url info for devs 2. Convert a series of Help docs from said legacy system into a consistent and Copilot/machine readable wiki 3. Identify then remediate common errors, including staging a markdown wiki that is easily exported to our team wiki. 4. Create readily deployable tasks/scripts for without needing to stage all new instructions/repo/etc 5. Identify and complete a workflow for updating an old but small internal app past 6+ years of CVEs/etc 6. Overhaul and remaster a myriad of AD/etc scripts and tools into cohesive and better documented module(s) 7. Manage years of bookmarks and prep an easy to import package for a new hire with team links/etc Actual Devs here are doing a lot with copilot tools like agents and squads or profiles. Ex one dev can do the following without leaving VS Studio CLI, and in some cases it's one command/chat: > Commit> story update> create PR linked to story> prep deployment and change needs ex yaml pipeline + approval requests LLMs and Gen AI are great tools. It's definitely more useful than blockchain hitting the market. But the hype is similar and the tech bros don't seem to get that unless they are selling a package around and LLM that solves for any lack of mature business process, dev guidelines, etc. ----- I'd compare it to setting a kid loose in your kitchen to bake cookies. All the ingredients are there, but they need a Recipe and oversight. If the Recipe says 'Add 1 cup butter', is that salted? unsalted? Straight from the freezer or room temp or melted? Do they start mixing in a large bowl or put the liquids in a small bowl to add to the dry ingredients in a large bowl later? Every thing you know you need to translate to the recipe/instructions. Maybe the kid asks great questions. Maybe it will just move forward with what assumptions it can make. Check the oven temp. Make sure they set a timer. You'll spend a lot less time personally to get a cookie but your ~~code~~ -er Recipe reviews need to be robust. Plus when your other kid (LLM model) goes to make a batch you need to repeat your Recipe update and oversight checks. The good news is a mature process (recipe) can withstand current model effectiveness. Buy you're also writing a detailed manual on how to replace yourself and handing it to a rapidly developing technology with minimal guardrails. If your org is decent about that you can offload a ton of work. If their goal is to deirectly replace you, tada you wrote the book yourself.

VOO and VGT have pretty much the same top holdings. The biggest criticism of VOO is it's over concentrated into info tech already. I would divest your VGT holdings and split the proceeds between your other holdings. I like having small cap exposure but AVUV is pretty expensive. I would look at IJR as an alternative, 0.25% VS 0.06% expense ratio. I'm not a huge bitcoin believer but the weight is low so who knows. Over all 7.8/10

how many of these gulf states developed their own missile defense VS secretly hiring israel to design iron dome-like systems? I know the UAE tried to straight up buy iron dome missile defense from Israel, but Israel declined for security reasons. Doesn't mean they didn't help design something similar.

If things had gone south I'd agree but honestly, it was obvious (at least to me) that this was going to be a cake walk given how wildly superior our forces are.

Idk man, pre AI probably fine. Just a hunch, but in general think all those who skip or get creative with taxes will have a day of reckoning once IRS fully using AI to track SSN's and Business Tax ID's data VS filings, AI run it back and compare years of history. Pre-AI it'd of taken a half million half competent IRS employees screening, they couldn't do it still can't screen so many so lot of little fish and leads never get chased down because juice isn't worth the squeeze / costs. Now that AI can potentially compare all the filings or lack of, data, history, and look for patterns or discrepancies each year plus go back multiple years it may get dicey for anyone playing fast & loose out there.

I keep hearing a lot of big corp stocks are owned by institutional investors like fidelity, Vanguard, BlackRock, etc. Is there a way to check this? Do I go into these investor holdings and check the amount of the stocks they own VS the floating amount in the market?

garden_speech

> All general purpose models are already trained on that most likely. You would be surprised how much of this is system prompting. I have Claude 4.6 both in my Claude subscription and in my VSCode GitHub Copilot Chat. The way it responds is totally different. In the Claude app, I cannot call it names, or it will tell me to be respectful. In VS Code I can swear at it and call it a retarded donkey and it will just say "oh you're right, I'm a moron!!" Further research has indicated system prompts drive most of the refusals in LLMs.

Dan Ives VS Tom Lee Ladder Cage Match

Skittler_On_The_Roof

It's just as likely you beat earnings expectations by a company in the red VS in the black.  Do people here, discussing stocks, really not understand that very basic concept?  "Beating earnings" only means you beat expectations.  It has nothing to do with whether your company is actually profitable.  An unprofitable company can beat expectations while a profitable one can miss. That being said, I made my comment from seeing my broker's negative PE ratio and a quick lazy Google search.  It appears that they're using non-GAAP numbers to push that it's doing better than standard accounting would indicate.  I'm not going to dig into why they're using non-GAAP, maybe it's legit.  So I'll soften on the profitable part (even though some brokers still say no) but it is true it's up about 15x since it's IPO last year.   Hard to argue that the market hasn't fully priced in their future success when up 15X in that timeframe, especially for their size MC.  I can't think of a company that large who's done better since last year, at all.

It is obvious you have some sort of vendetta with the insults and comments you have been hurling. I don't know if you lost money or feel defeated due to misuse of his system but he certainly isn't a hack. You say, "...piggyback on other vol guys" yet he was vetted and praised by big players like Benn Eiffert and other folks known in the space. He also has been praised by other professionals including other market makers, brokers and quants. If he truly was a 'toddler' as you call it then why would such high profiles risk their necks for him? Not all retailers have shown success admittedly but many of them have admitted it was due to various external factors like bad risk management and so forth. Trading is hard. It requires mastery in multiple disciplines and not just in execution of a trade like emotional control. I don't know what happened to make you so obsessive but I am willing to have a constructive argument to understand why it happened. I get folks want to feel justified in taking down charlatans but VS/Dan is not that.

VolSignalsVS3D

this is a case by case / day by day thing - we model this daily in VS3D and what shocked me is the size of the net customer position relative to volume and order flow. But most of the volume is MM vs MM, so it makes sense.

VolSignalsVS3D

I am happier on the "retail" side, because the business became so systematized that I felt it must be easier to just carve out PNL by trading against a bunch of bots at the table with the cards face up. Thus, VS3D and VolSignals, where we literally built a tool to see what we knew was going on (correctly) and I lead meetings daily and give intraday commentary to help people figure out how to use it successfully in their trading. I like intraday high frequency manual trading while Matt is more of an old school vol guy, but between us we usually get something right

VolSignalsVS3D

I'm hyper-focused on what I know— SPX universe, including VIX & VIX options. Most of my knowledge is generally transferrable— vanilla options are vanilla options after all; but each product has its norms.. structural flows, general persistent imbalances, concentrations, etc.- and understanding deeply what these things are and how to take advantage of them creatively is where I think the "alpha" lies, and that's what drives what I'm doing with VolSignals & VS3D. As someone who has himself grown a personal trading account 100x to over $1m and then back to $0, I would honestly say that no matter what level of "alpha" you have (even if you're a VS3D user and RTM subscriber with the greatest alpha available to retail, hint hint ;) you are still going to suffer if you don't just get the basics of trade sizing and risk management right. I used to have such good hit-rates that my conviction was my foil. I realized that no matter what, I'd be all in, because I was addicted to some perverted version of the Martingale where I just doubled down every time I won. (that can only end badly) It took me completely reconfiguring my approach from: "MAKE MONEY" to "DON'T LOSE MONEY" and eventually that made all the difference. Smaller trade sizes- rules around how much of the trading account is tied up in one thesis or trade- rules about take profits and a framework for identifying if I am gambling or taking a trade with "edge" per my view. All of those things are what make the difference. Without those, you will just have a high variance trading account and those tend to wind up at zero since you'll never walk away.

What I mean is some of the services just do a blanket bucket ie dealer VS customer. They are ignorant of what is considered dealer positions. It isn't a guess just more of laziness and ignorance due to lack of expertise. VolSignals actually breaks down and comments on how the ladder is broken up and understands why granular bucketing of 'dealers' is important

CBOE sells the data for SPX and VIX at least. The companies that do the best to show the data accurately are Unusual Whales' Periscope, OptionsDepth and new guys VS3D (VS=VolSignals). I currently pay for UW's Periscope. I also am in VolSignals' discord to learn how a former market maker understands the data, how they have to hedge with buying or selling futures through different exposures. OptionsDepth and VS3D offer a neat visualization/gradient map of sorts that also predicts what charm and gamma are likely to be as decay happens throughout the day. UW Periscope does not.

heroyi

No services provide real time because you cannot adjust the positioning on real time. No, flow data is inaccurate just as well since the market most likely moved away from what the midpoint of the spread may suggest which is why ddoi isn't suitable UNLESS you are ok with that noise and want something for in between. Also, Spotgamma and VS3D definitely differentiate long/short at least for SPX. Equity is a different story because it is absurdedly expensive to not only buy all the reports but some of the exchanges may not even offer a proper tagging like CBOE does.

Apparently, neither do you. Microsoft is diversified among many things beyond OS and Office. 🥴 Cursor is built on VS Code (Microsoft proeuct), they also own Github. And you didn't even mention Azure, which is one of the largest compute providers...

duboilburner

Unusual Whales' Periscope for SPX options, updates every 10 minutes, has the real positioning info instead of naive GEX based on OI. If you want some extra info and fancy visuals to go with it, OptionsDepth. There's also a new player on the scene that's been put together by a professional ex floor trader, basically trying to recreate the data and toolsets he had when he was a market maker. It's called VS3D, VS standing for VolSignals. I pay to be in his 'pro' discord to pick up some of his professional opinions on how he is translating the data to help my learning process, but I'm not paying for VS3D yet. Unusual Whales Periscope gets me 90% of the way there, just doesn't have the extra fancy visuals, which can be helpful. CBOE will be releasing 1 minute updated data streams soon... They are currently the ones who hold it to every 10 minutes for updates. All of the above mentioned services pay CBOE for the data, and then they parse and display it their own way. So, I suppose you could just pay CBOE directly, but I'm fairly certain that far exceeds what the other services charge. The other guys can charge less because they have numerous customers that can defray that cost... and the raw data may not be as useful as the already calculated displays UW, OD and VS3D offer.

travysh

Which model? How are you interacting with it (Claude Code? Copilot? Etc?) The specifics make a huge difference. OpenAI don't bother. Grok Code Fast can output decent results with a *lot* of guardrails. Not quite junior level, but a good starting point. Claude (all modern variants) via VS Code or similar is like solid junior level output. Claude via Claude CLI is approaching a hands off solution.

Given that cursor is basically a plugin to VS code, they are pretty replaceable. If IntelliJ will ever get their shit together - I’ll jump the ship. But I hear you

Skittler_On_The_Roof

I'm advocating people shop at places like Costco, instead.  But consumers overwhelmingly choose Walmart, Amazon, etc. Costco in a way eliminates jobs since the bulk efficiency works across the board (more efficient to stock 1 10lb bag of something VS 10 1lbs bags, 10x less work for checkout, etc) and you need less employees per dollar spent.  But that's another story.  It is a reason they can pay more while keeping 2X the profit margin of Walmart. 

Skittler_On_The_Roof

Individually, no.  But that's the beauty of using what you buy to drive change. It's collective VS the individual and its mostly money you were already going to spend anyway. Plus corporations are more reliable to "bribe" than politicians.  You can endorse a candidate who loses, making your contribution worthless.  But if the masses stop buying at Walmart, it will 100% impact their policies.

BigBossShadow

Fundamental technical analysis is simply a way of reading a price and volume chart and seeing the interaction of buyers VS sellers. Not understanding technical analysis is the same as not being able to ice skate and trying to play hockey. Inversely, knowing how to ice skate, isn't going to make you any good at hockey. If you dont understand what a cup and handle, flag, a pivot point or simply support and resistance say about the underlying supply and demand. Then you simply dont understand anything about markets. If you understand supply and demand, you will implicitly understand technical analysis without ever seeing a chart. The real reason why bots (or people) can't use technical analysis for profit consistently is simple. Its extremely contextual, to such a wide breadth of factors which cannot be computed by a machine, nor kept track of by a human. Every stock and ETF trades differently. In different times of the year, in different political and liquidity environments. Its just too many details for anyone to keep track of.

>Mandatory military service where they keep the guns and bring them home Neither the Netherlands nor Switzerland have mandatory military service, the former since1997 and the later since 1996 Soldiers from the Netherlands never could take their issued gun home. In Switzerland it's a choice >Pretty mandatory gun ownership, without calling it that. Taking your issued gun home during service is a choice, and it's also not ownership since the soldiers don't own the gun >Every adult gets a free gun to do whatever with. They could sell it, but that's not common. No. People that chose to serve, chose to serve armed, were issued a gun and chose to store it at home have a military-issued gun at home but you cannot do whatever you want with it and especially not sell it as it is the property of the Swiss army Moreover, we're talking about less than 150k military-issued guns VS up to 4.5mio civilian-owned ones
