Thank you for the video! Could you please do a video explaining more in depth the role of market makers? Who can be a market marker? What are the requirements for it? Can an individual become a market marker on his own? Who is supervising the market makers? How many market makers are active for the major indexes? Can market makers influence the direction of a given stock? Is Optiver active on different markets? How much money do they earn on active stocks? May be you could do an interview with a market maker. This would be the first video explaining this....unfortunately there is no information about this topic on RUclips.
Awesome channel, i'm binge watching and following all your python tutorials and have learned a great deal. Could you recommend me a book or other resource to learn quantitative finance?
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
Thanks, this is really helpful. How will it help Optiver by knowing the future realized vol ? Because if they have to delta hedge, isnt getting the direction right important as the vol. And I am guessing the vol could be more sizing the hedge. Can you please let me know your thoughts.
You showed there is a spread between implied volatility for puts and calls. I have a question: does that spread indicate an arbitrage opportunity. If not, why?
I appreciate the information but to be quite frank, why are we helping market makers by helping them to analyze and better understand our thought processes? All I fell they're mostly trying to achieve by this, is to just help them create and write new algorithmic models against the general population of retail traders?
Because they are also humans and they are not perfect, we can profit from them, if we learn to do so, regardless of the traps they set us up, they can’t always lie to us, they wish, but they can’t
Fascinating option pricing and vol analysis. Seems realized vol might be a function of the calculations done in technical price bars as measured in the "seismic measurer" of potential vol in Welles Wilder's ADX/DMI under over 20 levels, the Wilder ATR 5 and10 versus 100 day, or the 8 to 15 day Squeeze Indicator from John Carter measuring SD of Bollinger Bands compared with Keltner Channel ATRs etc? Seismic activity at low level means breakout in realized vol is coming and vice versa. Realized vol would seem a derivative of price action catalysts creating the supply demand dynamics of then options reacting to price bar movements and compression. If just using historical option prices to try and predict realized vol would seem a tautology, a snake eating its tale so to speak in not measuring the true catalyst in realized vol, energy jumps in the subconscious of man reacting to price or planetary energy reflected then on the price bar creating compression or expansio breakouts in realized vol over time. Just a "speculative observation" but has, imo, the Hemingway esque ring of truth to effective technical price "seismic indicators." Ty for sharing your option market making analysis with traders across the world on YT. The truth shall set us all free on the market level as well as higher spiritual planes. New US subscriber.
i think what we can learn from historic volatility is inherent price action; one does not predict realized vol through historical vol, rather, one derives predicted vol and compares the relative vol to that of the price of an option based in the past. should the relative pricing be higher than what it was in the past, this means the option is overvalued given the same volatility that is predicted. after all, pricing of the option itself isn't an output of volatility, rather, a derivative of the market.
Who agrees with me on this , that the most costly way for an investor to hedge his stock market exposure is by going and buying straddles ? Hence shorting them can provide very positive consistent returns !
Only when vol is expensive. Sell cheap straddles and eventually stock will rip through one of your strikes and you’ll take a massive loss. Straddles pretty much suck period.

Thanks! Check out the video on my channel “What is a Quant?”

Thank you ser ! Your videoes have changed my life !
Thanks, this is really helpful.
How will it help Optiver by knowing the future realized vol ?
Because if they have to delta hedge, isnt getting the direction right important as the vol. And I am guessing the vol could be more sizing the hedge.
Can you please let me know your thoughts.
the delta hedge removes the directional component of the trade and makes it so only exposure is realized volatility.
You showed there is a spread between implied volatility for puts and calls. I have a question: does that spread indicate an arbitrage opportunity. If not, why?
You mention the next video, but there's no link :(
Is it ATM implied vol in the volatility cone?
does someone have the link to 2rd part of video?
I appreciate the information but to be quite frank, why are we helping market makers by helping them to analyze and better understand our thought processes?

greate thank u
which model of laptop, looking good
Huawei Matebook pro
using the same one, but the design of the camera really doesn't make sense@@QuantPy
I recognise a couple of books behind your monitor, can you provide the whole list? 😅
Can you please name at least some books. I don't recognise it
@@ВарвараТомайлы interest rate modelling by Jessica James and option volatility and strategies by Natenberg
Can you do a video on Technical Analysis and if it’s all bull5hit or not… please 🙏
Is this method applicable to stocks in the American markets like the NASDAQ for example?
As in the method of calculating historical volatility
What kind of laptop do you have?

How can you sell straddles? Just have enough margin to do so?
thanks buddy
