Qtn: Would the big insto fund managers get access or presentations on Brn revenue growth plans - making it easier to short knowing when Ann may be forthcomingI’d suspect most of those shorts are hedging positions by funds..
Most pros shorting individually wouldn’t hold BRN short borrow overnight as it always has a chance of a 50% move at the drop of one new IP deal or related Ann.
I think they've bought and sold the same single share to and from themselves 15,497,836 x ........at zero cost.On uptrends traders, instos etc buy "calls" rather than puts, this is simply another options strategy and of course it is an amplifier of price movement.
However again, I hark back to what IMO is the real villain, the bots - I would be very interested to see the numbers of total bot sales, up and down on BRN.

So I am looking at price movement from a different perspective, and don't think instos are necessarily going to fight the uptrend until they think it is exhausted (rather they will follow the trend), and they will also be looking at a number of other technical indicators (the instos and traders are usually very conversant with TA). So when the uptrend is starting to lose energy they jump onto puts, the timeframes on options are flexible - short to longer term, however you pay a premium for option duration, there are other critical factors that are priced into options premia.
On the subject of TA, I have heard any number of posters here ridicule TA at times, I do not understand this attitude, as virtually all traders and instos are seriously versed in TA (as well as Fundamental Analysis), and trade accordingly. So my view is, that I am certainly interested in knowing how "my enemy" approaches their trading/investing, and how they operate. Sun Tzu and many other successful strategists understood the idea of "knowing your enemy".
However again, I hark back to what IMO is the real villain, the bots - I would be very interested to see the numbers of total bot sales, up and down on BRN. Over 70% of SP movement on ASX and global stocks is now catalyzed by bots - what really interests me even more is the instos who run the bots - what relationship do their options strategies have with the bots - of course this would be illegal if there were a clear connection - but global bourses IMO should be compelled to make definitively clear where these relationships sit. That particular idea really makes me wonder.

Apparently they are doing this as a favour to us all by providing liquidity.
It is a system designed and maintained with entrenched bias.
No appetite from "powers that be" for any structural change as the status quo keeps them fat and happy.
The system is bloated and corrupt and we've all seen what happens to people who try and overturn the tables of the money changers.
Something about power corrupting and absolute power corrupting absolutely.......and also something about some animals being more equal than others. Happy easter all.
Yeah he shoulda studied the dharma and skipped all that martial karma.'course there was one thing Sun Tzu missed - timing the market - look at all the copyright royalties he's missed out on by a few thousand years.
While it's nice to see, you have to remember that since our inclusion in the 200, a lot of funds HAD to buy because we are in the index.Slowly but surely, Insto's and Mutual Funds are gobbling up BRN shares. Thats abouit 315 Million shares they own. Although some of these organisations loan these share to shorters, the fact that they are slowly accumulating signifies a bullish sentiment.

Good find Rocket. This is an excellent overview, starting historically and progressing to now and beyond.
Some might want to move forward in the video, straight to the Event Based focus.
Vision is one of the hottest themes that is going to rocket out of the Spiking Neural Network gates!

FRAME-BASED: A conventional camera takes an arbitrary number of pictures per second, usually around 30 fps, in which all pixels record in synchrony regardless of what is going on in the scene.
EVENT-BASED: In Prophesee Metavision patented sensor (discover our Evaluation Kits), there is a new kind of pixel. Each of them is powered by its own independent intelligent processing. This allows them to only records when they sense a change or movement. The information created does not arrive frame by frame. Rather, movement is captured as a continuous stream of information.
Prophesee sees between the frames, where all traditional frame-based systems are blind.
