Trading knockouts instead of stocks could be an interesting way to leverage the movement in price. What do you think? |
Total beginner when it comes to trading... Wondering if you want to liquidate your position at the end of day, would knockouts be a bit illiquid compared to the underlying stock? |
Yes, but as long as you have a small position and the bid-ask spread doesn't become too wide it shouldn't be a problem. It would be interesting to see how trump affects the spread over time. |
I'd also like the ability to trade in short-term volatility and index funds (e.g. when executive orders are issued/challenged/rescinded). |
@matthazinski talk about volatility highlight what I was about to say: instead of buy/short, the bot should use short lived options(calls/put). Buying or selling would be based on the expected volatility effect of the tweet. Options offer better leverage and since most of the changes happen in a few days, we could use options with close expiration dates. |
E.g. currency based on sentiment toward countries or governments? Futures while markets are closed?
