I would believe this.

What you are describing is just numeracy; Try taking one of those open courses things to get some real math work?

http://blog.equametrics.com/ This is there a blog... their most recent entry is.... hum.... well.... hum... I guess it's a good thing they are a financial technologies company rather than a hedge fund.

Oh boy... another 'visual' programming paradigm... this has never been a good idea in 99% of programming tasks, including this.

I appear to be exactly correct in all my prognostications. Maybe I should be a guru too.

But you didn't lose any money!! Just back an extra dollar worth of the stock and you are in the exact same position as pre dividend.

Oh man... this sort of arrangement has the potential of ending up on the wrong side of a pyramid (not saying it is, just that it can run into a whole of problems that banks supposedly have).

No, I mean how to do you protect your sweep account from losses due to the failure of the bank with whom you have the sweep account?

Are these CDs covered by FDIC? I imagine not, right? How do you guys deal with default risk if you are just putting the cash into another bank? Maybe you can do some basic money market stuff like TBAs and agency debentures... but I doubt you'll earn that much more than 70bps for all your...

This is the part where he's going to post 1 or 2 very obscure, no longer printed, manuscripts by one Jack Hershey from long ago time. I have a theory that once upon a time Jack was an engineer of sort. He has long lost his marbles (or is simply a very elaborate hoax).

I see. $11mm is damn small for anything financial. I'm curious, since I know next to nothing about credit unions - where do you guys usually park your money when not lent to you members? tbills? Anyway, given credit union's usual mission, it's hard to see the board approving an aggressive...

Don't you guys have lawyers? How big is the credit union?

Dirty secret of grad school: if you can get into a really good phd program (MIT, harvard, whatever), then go to that on stipend and pay no tuition. Then leave when you get your masters. Same result as getting a FE, better branding, and you got paid to do it.... And you might discover you...

M in FE is VERY different from a PhD in econ; Different coursework, different focus, and different career paths. OP, just make sure you know what you want to do and don't end up accidentally in the other camp.

Sigh.. It is not. And none of your post beneath this quote had anything to do with what we were talking about. I'll exit this discussion now. It's clear you have already done so.

You appear to ignore the part where I explained the difference. I'll try again just in case you missed it the first time. "I think you appear to be working with the definition that anything that has is computed from price is t/a. In that case, everything is t/a. But that's not how the rest...

I think you appear to be working with the definition that anything that has is computed from price is t/a. In that case, everything is t/a. But that's not how the rest of the world sees it. Statistical analysis is derived from some first principal model of reality (right or wrong). It...

This is a rather simplistic view of stats.

I disagree. My personal definition is that TA is doing stats like computation without applying the theories of statistics.

The problem with this discussion is that at which point does technical analysis become quantitative analysis.
