Unemployed Quant here with too much time to kill. Ask me to backtest

...I'd really like to know just how bullshit or not binary options are for both the person buying and writing them.

Macro or Micro? What college?

As long as your broker is government regulated, is a domestic operation, and separates customer funds from their business operations, what profit and loss you make on binary options is entirely up to you.

Ever come across some really interesting strategies?

I once read about someone who bought and sold based on how many women they had on their boards.

Amount of buzzwords and ideology on their site could also be an indicator.

Doubt you can help with these, I'm just thinking out loud.

hi op, do you have any experience backtesting option strategies (specifically at the money weeklies)?

>>1961848
The strat I want to test involves day trading these weeklys. Unfortunately I can't find any platforms that allow backtesting intraday option strategies. TOS ThinkBack doesn't have this feature.

Have you encountered any firms that employ strategies and analysis that go beyond technical and fundamental financial data into quantification of "real-world" data, such as public sentiments of any given company?
