- Artgo is a mining company (marble) in China, and was doing incredibly well on the hong kong markets for the past 6 months until yesterday when it dropped 98%. This happens less frequently in american markets, which are way less volatile, but it’s still crazy.
- Cal Stanford football tomorrow.
- Helped last night with a little bit of the hydra/dispatch frontend to adjust header sizes and scroll position to match the active step.
- Tesla unveiled its new truck last night lol. It’s fast. It’s ugly. It failed the window smash tests live.
- My return on the day for ZYME alone was $968.31.
- Volume is literally the number of transactions for a security, usually over the span of a day, and usually averaged over a number of days. If person X buys and person Y sells, that only counts as 1. Anything under a couple hundred thousand is usually considered low volume, or thinly traded. They’re riskier because you might not be able to sell, or it will have large swings. This makes diamonds in the rough even smaller/rarer.
- “In order to match the hordes of buy and sell orders, exchanges start with the highest bid (buy order) and try to match it up with the lowest ask (sell order). Because there are usually thousands of bid and ask orders in the system during the trading day, chances are usually very good that there will be little difference separating the highest bid order from the lowest ask order. However, once the trading day finishes and after-hours trading commences, there are drastically fewer participants entering bid and ask orders into the system for a security. Because of this lack of order volume, there is a much greater chance that a big dollar value difference will exist between the quoted bid and ask values for a particular security.” – Investopedia.
- Instead of checking the market price (quote) during afterhours, which is just a representation of the last trade, look up the ask price (or the full list of available asks, which are sell orders). That will tell you what you’re going to actually pay for it.
- Alternatively, place a limit buy order instead of market.
- You’re going to naturally see even higher spreads on a lower-volume stock.
- Watched Chris Kesser’s appearance on JRE, to try to multi-source some suggestions I’d been getting on Medium as well. All revolve around debunking the game changers documentary about vegan health.

- He went over the expected. Amino acid profile is important. 1g beef protein != 1g wheat protein.
- You could achieve the same full profile, but you’d be taking in a lot more carbs, fat, and overall calories. You’d have to eat like 5x the mass of vegetables/beans/etc to get the same protein profile. Not impossible, but diluted.
- Also, in general, the dogmatic nature of the doc. Rather than educating both sides, and encouraging wise decisions because of X here and Y there, it’s clearly biased.
- Scalability of landsize was an interesting point. Growing edible crops to feed 7.5 billion people isn’t possible. It’s not as dense as meat, in both production (the input side) and in nutrition (the output side).
- My stance was unchanged. Eco and ethical impact of meat = bad, fully defensible. Health = good, mostly defensible.
- Did some TLRA research with Art.
- Went to All Indian Sweets and Snacks with Remy. That place is delicious.
- Turkey prep for Sunday.
- Spatchcocked and started the brine. Separated each half into the 3 cuts:
- Leg: thigh and drumstick
- Chest: breast and tenderloin
- Wing: wing and drummette (no tip)
- Combined the wing tips, neck, backbone, heart, liver, and all other trimmings while separating the bird. All will be used to make broth.
- Stock is from bones, broth is from meat. Mine uses both.
- Upgraded to robinhood gold.
- Also enabled option trading, allowing me to do calls (buy at strike price later, expect appreciation, long) and puts (sell at strike price later, expect depreciation, short).
- They give you research reports from morningstar, which estimate a fair value, measure uncertainty, and more.
- Supposedly this will give level II market data soon, with live bid/ask prices from nasdaq.
- Played with robin-stocks more.
- Oh shit you can already get the bids/asks from the api.
- eg get_pricebook_by_symbol(‘zyme’) – lists all the asks and bids and how much.
- You can also get the splits!
- eg get_splits(‘trex’) – will list all of them with dates and multipliers.
- Full history data is available. This might be better than yahoo finance.
- The only thing I notice is missing is the automatic calculation of TTM%, and all the dividend yield information.
