Episode notes
Strong Risk-On Market Confirmed
- Equities and crypto rallied strongly while volatility collapsed under 19, confirming the move.
- Bitcoin rebounded above $100,000 after trading below it last week, showing broad risk-on flows.
Carry Exists Everywhere
- Carrying costs exist across futures, options, and physical assets and include interest and opportunity costs.
- Liquid markets price those costs in, so displayed prices already reflect carrying costs.
Limit Tail Risk By Sizing And Definition
- Trade small enough so a tail event doesn't take you out of the game and allows you to keep trading the next day.
- Use defined-risk trades to fully limit tail risk by defining your maximum loss on entry.
