    Neural Networks Revisited

    Well of course all the best stuff is totally free.....why on earth would a company that develops top line software ever think of charging money for it? Huge global corporations like DOW, Ford and Abbot Labs are saving tens of millions on software after they discovered free software in 2014 and...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    Sorry, I should have more precisely qualified my comments as the discussions involves, NN, Deep Learning Networks and a few other methods. My experience is with Support Vector Machines and prior to that with the old fashioned NN. Have yet to work with DL networks so feel free to discount my...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    It depends of the sophistication of the software and the skill/stupidity of the user. I use a package that retailed for $30,000 and would typically be used for detecting fraud in processing your next credit card transaction. I can't speak to hobbyist software that you can buy for $99.95 or...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    It really depends on the software you use. IMO, trying to create your own implementation of a NN from library components makes as much sense as trying to build your own Smartphone from parts your bought at Radio Shack. So buy the best software you can afford. If your goal is creating software...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    A NN or SVM overcomes the human limitation of 7. According to cognitive psychologists humans make decision best when looking at about 7 or fewer considerations.When presented with 40 things to think about the brains starts to group, summarize or ignore some until it gets them to a handful for a...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    Of course....if fact prior to the availability of quantum computing, information conceptualization is just as important as your predictive software. The variety there is truly interesting ranging from adaptation of quantum physics and string theory to scanning social media for word mentions. Is...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    Sure, but to a major degree your preferred time granularity defines that....if you are trying to predict Wheat prices two weeks into the future, then using tick data would be silly.

    Neural Networks Revisited

    Well....but keep in mind that an indicator is a compression of information with extreme prejudice......somebody decided that there are 32 candlestick patterns, or 4 minor Elliott waves in a Sorbinsky retracement or a MA with lengths of A, B and C as opposed to x, y and z. We should hold a...

    Neural Networks Revisited

    Excellent point. Most of your standard technical indicators have very close to zero predictive capacity when used in predictive analytics (NN, SVM, etc.) Why? Because as you imply they were designed to hide and summarize information. You can easily validate this. Create two predictive models in...

    This is exactly as one would expect.

    Fibonacci Levels are Random

    You don't really want to code the rules....as the rules were made up to sell books and seminars....right? And of course you sell books and seminars because you can make more money doing that than trading the discovery you are now selling. That said there certainly is a truth behind much of...

    42% of Democrats are in favor of socialism

    Trump is the first politician since President Hayes who is able to fart out of his mouth and talk out of his ass AT THE SAME TIME. This will terrify the Chinese as they do not fart and they will think Trump is the mystical Sky Dragon of Hung Ping.

    42% of Democrats are in favor of socialism

    Siberian Butt Fungus is no laughing matter. Your butt develops a green slimy skin that sprouts tendrils that can reach 8 feet in length and develop a feeding instinct of their own ....often attempting to ensnare small animals like mice, cats and puppies and insert them into the anus for...

    America could use some better cops...our keep killing unarmed people with 127 gunshots.....does New Zealand export them along with sheep wool?

    In Finland you don't have those gangs of violent 5th grade girls raping their teacher's, killing the mean boys with AR-15s and burning down the municipal buildings....they know they can always come to America on vacation to do that.

    42% of Democrats are in favor of socialism

    You are correct. "Socialism" or human progress is the trend. The US due to poor education lags the rest of the developed world by 60 to 80 years. Take any metric: Social Security - Germany in 1870 / US in 1936, Socialist Health Care - Canada, UK, New Zealand 1945 - 1949 US in 2010. Iceland...

    Sure I am stupid. I am White Trash so of course I could not be educated gooder due to the diversity in the local schools (there was a Black in the school system...he kept saying he was Sicilian but we can tell a darkie when we see one)...however I have sent my kids to Finland to get a good...

    Oh, I forgot you can't educate White Trash very well due to the genetic defects do to inbreeding. At least US Asians, Blacks and Hispanics are there to raise US scores!!

    Too bad you were educated in US.... global ranking for educational scoring at age 18 ...Finland (Commie country) #1, South Korea (they have funny eyes) #2....US (the land of White Trailer Trash) 17th. Us doozes gooders, burp, fart...let's go play football...wez'us dunt needs deem book learning!!!!
