Today's Buy/Sell Programs

For Monday February 8, 2010

Our clients knew it Friday.   You learned it Sunday.
Whenever the Dow Jones Industrial Average closes positive on Friday, the NFC (New Orleans) wins the Super Bowl 70% of the time! 

And how Friday closed last week, predicts every day this week.
If you would like to know what the best program trading firms already know, then you need a copy of our latest program trading report entitled: 

Program Trading and The Super Bowl

Simply email us with your name and phone number and we will call you with the URL for this free report.

 

What the NYSE does not want you to know.
The New York Stock Exchange public relations department quietly moved their program trading volume stats a few years ago.  Not one trader in a thousand even noticed it.   Did you? 

Program Trading Averaged 54.80 Percent of the Volume from Jan 25 to Jan 29, 2009
Buy programs were 48.40 of the total program trading volume.  That is down from the previous week.   Sell programs were 51.604%.   That is up from the previous week.

Pure index arbitrage was 3.50% of the total program trading volume.  That is down from the previous week.  Index arbitrage is only a very small part of program trading and is not relevant for the great majority of traders.   Instead, you should be concentrating on the other 96.50% of program trading that week that is very important and very predictable.

Program Trading Execution Levels

Our Fair Value for the SP 500 today is $-3.00.  That price level will not change during the day.  Our computers are set for program buying at $-1.49 and set for program selling at $-4.51    If you would like to watch these program buying and selling execution levels, the symbol is PREM.

Beware of the PREM symbols $SPINX, $PREM, SPINX.X, PREM.X, SPS, or any other weird ticker symbol from mediocre and horrible data vendors.   Those symbols are not correct.  If you do not have PREM on your screens, email us and we will help you with it.

Program Trading or Index Arbitrage?
Please do not confuse our program trading premium execution levels listed above with so called theoretical execution levels for index arbitrage listed in the media and announced each morning on CNBC.  Theoretical levels for index arbitrage are only applicable for certain types of modeling and back testing, and theoretical paper trading in general.   Theoretical levels are neither accurate nor reliable for real trading in your own account, and are not applicable for professional traders using the CME, NYSE, and NASDAQ, with real money and trading for real profits.  Professional program traders never use theoretical execution levels ever.   So be extremely careful if you are using theoretical calculations designed for index arbitration.  Also remember that index arbitrage is normally less than 4.50 percent of all total program trading and therefore irrelevant for most traders.

Our program trading premium execution levels listed above, are the actual price levels that our clients will use today to execute computer assisted buy and sell programs for many different program trading strategies, which comprise over 95 percent of program trading.  Our execution levels are different from the theoretical levels announced on CNBC.  Our levels include certain costs not even included in theoretical formulas.  If you would like to know more about that, simply email us.   Normally our premium execution levels are higher for program buying, and lower for program selling, than theoretical levels compiled from theoretical models on college campuses.   But not always.  Please be advised that our execution levels are set to front run theoretical levels on some days; either on the buy side, or sell side, or both.  If you are using theoretical levels, you will always be late and will always have additional and unnecessary losses. 

There is a very good reason why the spread between our program buying execution level and fair value is different than the spread between our program selling execution level and fair value, on most days.   If you have noticed how those spreads change from day to day and have been wondering about that, then send us email with your questions.  We will answer your email promptly.   

Any stocks mentioned above are only a small sample of the stocks we have pre-programmed for program buying or program selling.  If you would like more information about that, and the stocks we have pre-programmed for today, then simply email us your requests.
