[looney]

Is a wanky derivatives model bastardised from an academic model because dumb traders dont know what utility functions are.

 

[Shropshire Seagull]

I know what it means.
I know how to use it.

Standard deviation occurs when your flag hangs at the wrong angle from its pole.

This is not to be confused with that standard of deviation which happens when your average deviant excels him(her)self.Or doesn't!
