      Give me a pile of cash and access to market moving tweets half an hour before the public get them and I’d deliver impressive results too.

      Just hypothetically speaking.

    2. The more volatile the market is, the more profit these types of quant firms tend to make. It’s in the nature of how they are. The reverse happens when the market is calm and they tend not to perform as well in absolute returns.

      I’ve been a fan of these guys for years. If I was smart, I’d get a job at Jane Street. Too bad I’m a potato.

      Fuck Jane Street, if they take a large position in a company you own, then run, or short the shit out of it.

      What are they doing with all that money? They don’t even pay their employees as well as you’d expect

      Citadel securities has a video on their YouTube recently have a guy talking about their trading algorithms or some shit like that and he talked about how each trade execute and under 40 µs aka microseconds and that’s broken down into multiple components of trade engine, risk, something else etc so like a few core actions take up those 40 µs per transaction. And they say that if they were 10 µs slower, the edge would not be there.

      I think about it like this each trend line a market maker exists and that’s the edge they are fighting over. So if you took any timeframe like 5 minutes , the 20 EMA, 50 EMA, 100 EMA for example, might all be different market makers. The faster, the timeframe harder and more competitive than the environment is. No one knows the specifics, but these marketmakers the biggest ones like James Street and citadel and jump trading and the biggest banks all have their own territories inside this very large ecosystem. And they are obviously incredibly good at it.

      I heard that the most profitable trade on Wall Street is selling short dated puts by sharpe ratio. I believe CBOE posted this research. Someone is doing that on SPY/QQQ/IWM

    8. Jane Street pumping and dumping the entire Indian market will never stop being funny to me
