    Reversion To the Mean (RTM) Intraday Strategies

    Anyone using Data Visualization Techniques? If you do, can you post an image? I am not talking about a simple time/price chart. The idea is that humans are better then computers in perception, creativity and general knowledge. I am just curious of what people a are using. Here is more...

    How's your economy holding up, Michigan?

    Not much of a problem in So Cali. You do get messy surfing but you can take a shower right on the beach and you are ready to go. Clean as whistle. Check out La Jolla CA. Doesn't get much better than that. (if you have the cash for it). I hope you like rain and 8 months of bad whether if you...

    How do you go about raising capital?

    15 cents on the $1.00 plus a rent to park my van on their property, when I get tired to live in a van down by the river. :D :D :D http://www.hulu.com/watch/4183/saturday-night-live-down-by-the-river

    How do you go about raising capital?

    I agree with one exception. If you clearly state to your friends/family that they should only invest money they are willing to loose then it should be OK. It is like buying a lottery ticket for them. If they can afford to loose $10,000 then why not. If you get a big inventor to invest in...

    Paul Rotter and the Order book

    I think it is like this. He puts a big Buy order. The locals start moving the market towards the big offer. They think if I sell few ticks above the offer and the market drops I am granted that it will not drop more then few ticks as the big offer is sitting there. If the market moves up...

    Quick, by Mathematical Home Edition

    You can load up a solution developed by someone else and modify the parameters to your needs. The software will show you the result for your case. Like this example developed by Stephen Schulist, is about the Kelly criterion. http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/KellyPortfolioAnalysis/...

    How do you handle big draw-downs the next day?

    Agree 100%. If the coder has never achieved discretionary trading competence, than his algo will not work for long. IMO, algos work when used to automate the entries and exists of a successful discretionary trader.

    Quick, by Mathematical Home Edition

    Q: How is Mathematica Home Edition different from the professional version of Mathematica? Mathematica Home Edition is a fully functional version of Mathematica Professional with the same features. Amazing. $2,495 you can get for $295. That will cover my Friday loss. :)

    Why can't americans admit they messed up the economy?

    My understanding of the crisis is this: 1. Too much Cheap credit was provided 2. The credit was hedged with 3td parties that did not have the moola to pay back the hedge when the shit hit the fan 3. Ratings of the risk were wrong. Who is guilty? 1. Providers of credit - guilty. Not...

    Why can't americans admit they messed up the economy?

    Very nice post! Similar examples are the new websites that allow people to lend money to other people. The problem is that this makes more money to become available from greedy people who think they can make easy 10% per year. These people depend on ratings of the borrowers given to them by...
