@deltatrendtrading: What market makers actually do, and why stop hunts would never be profitable for institutions. #finance #quant #wallstreet #marketmaker
I literally got stopped out 14 outta of 14 trades today, Market Makers definitely exist and they hunt every trade I take. Every real Quant knows this

Ok here's a fun experiment to try. Fund a small futures trading account, and then take a position in the micro 5 year yield futures. Places where often you'd be the only person that trades that day. Then watch how the limit orders respond over time. Their inventory management routines behave in a way that works against you forcing you to eat the spread both ways. You only make money if it really really moves. In larger markets that happens in aggregate and leads to the behavior that retail thinks is stop hunting.

This is right in theory but when you work at a firm, you’ll need to have certain Greeks in order to help facilitate other product flows. So in practice we do have “opinions” on what we are quoting.

MM’s move the market, By law they don’t have to stay delta neutral the IMF also puts limits on the MM I wonder why lol. Blackrock is a MM and every MM bank and institution relies on ALADDIN trading decisions 80% of all trades that happen in the market go through black rock you seriously think they aren’t going to manipulate price to screw over leveraged trades that’s the only reason why markets move in the first place. What do you think happens when MM’s start to run low on equity from loaning out so much leverage? They need it back eventually targeting where majority of the retail liq is and that’s why price goes up and down. Every human being on that planet that’s think about investing ask them selfs “what should I buy” if that’s the case everything should be going up by our human nature, but it doesn’t because the MM wants you to take there leverage so they can eventually reverse price recollecting what they loaned out and leverage

So if you agree MMs do seek to be delta neutral. There is hints of truth in using gamma exposure. Certainly you can never prove how much a MM is participating in the volume on a certain strike. But a degree of its volume would be through them. The gripe is determining which side they are on. It’s poor to assume they are long calls and short puts. However if it is a large OI strike with large volume, reactions at levels should be present ? Is their participation in a strikes OI so unknown that it’s impossible to make an edge of it? What are your thoughts ?

Would using delta exposure data from NDX Or QQQ be good to use as levels for intraday trading?

It’s not mm’s hunting stops, it’s sclapers, during the low volume mid day period.

I feel like this doesn’t apply to crypto at least rn. The biggest asset is only $1T in market cap I do think institutions are definitely influencing some behaviour

Hear me out please
Isn't a SL of a buy order basically selling out the position. And when you buy then there's an equal seller at that spot.... So for them to execute their big trades... They trigger the sl which are "sells" to then make it able for them to buy???
