+1 ...someone actually understands it.

A suggestion (that a lot of people don't seem to think about here) is to look for conditional responses of candidates. I.e. rather than screening for candidates that exhibit trend like tendencies, look for candidates that have persistent trends given a prior trending period, etc... Given your...

Fun to go back to these exercises. But, the newer excel is pretty dreadful to navigate and chart, IMO. If you're not that familiar with programming, a spreadsheet is a great way to start doing these studies.

I remember seeing a site dedicated to these, titled 'chart of the day.' I think this is the same source today... http://www.businessinsider.com/s?q=chart+of+the+day You can also find sites sourcing Thomson Reuters data based charts: e.g...

Does quandl have intraday data? OP. If you are familiar with VBA, you could write loops to process the data statistics. I don't recall Quandl having intraday data, but google has limited intraday data and it's not too easy to gather, but you could likely find some excel based approaches to do...

Yep, that's the movie in a nutshell. Very over the top all-day/all-night drugs and sex affordable via illicit gains (pumping penny stocks and such). Sort of like Pulp Fiction meets GoodFellas meets Boiler Room. Watched it last night; very enjoyable.

If you are familiar with excel, Simon Benninga's text is great (no HP though). http://www.amazon.com/Financial-Modeling-Simon-Benninga/dp/0262026287/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1384818782&sr=1-3&keywords=excel+finance+Simon+Benninga I have not read it, but...

Thought I logged into a powerade ad. Light blue fonts and theme colors make the content difficult to read. I liked the older scheme.:(

Waterfox 64 bit here. Never had any update/bloatware/speed issues. You can set to clean cache every time it closes.

Although it's a great reason and I agree a lot, the (CTA performance) decay has been going on for much more than 5 years. Correlation across markets has been increasingly rising and there was a good book I was reading about it some time back...

Rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries are prone to exploding without a VERY good regulation of charge buildup. The fact that a road object was enough to spark a fire/explosion is obviously not a very good argument from a safety/robustness point of view. From a marketing point of view; one only...

There are 1ms charts as well. It's possible the 1ms plots might sometimes obscure some insight better viewed from a zoomed out view (forest vs. tree).

uh, wrong. (186,000 miles/sec)*(1e-3 sec/ms)= 186 miles/ms ... exactly as he claimed.

Sorry, I get tons of thread subscriptions and spam to wade through. Try my blog email; it is fairly clean. Cheers.

Not that i was asked..but... He's explicit about use of many models, but doesn't elaborate on multi-parametrization of single models. I suspect he uses both; I do. He is clearly a fan of ensemble methods. And for me, intuition and framing the problem (sometimes referred to as feature...

Look into chi-square test.

Your thoughts are consistent with statistical learning and ensemble methods. Nice observation and work.

It's not so much about documentation but sometimes compatibility. I went through a nightmare scenario by running the latest ubuntu and AMD graphics processor that forced a huge ugly watermark on the bottom of my display screen (some unsupported hardware crap). After discussing with many...

Ubuntu forum was just hacked. Kind of surprising... and wasn't too thrilled about it. http://ubuntuforums.org/announce.html
