There was something on pg 4-5 about analysing/predicting the residuals here:
http://arb-maker.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Quick-guide-Principles-and-Practicalities.pdf
What does it mean?
How does ArbMaker analyse/forecast the "residuals" since they are random/normally distributed?
It is generally mean reverting but how do you predict what is the next value/range between the upper/lower limits?
Maybe someone good in math can summarise the contents of the links to papers here:

What does it say:confused:
Maybe can apply parrondo concept in hedging a system buysell signal and making it profitable overall by varying the size of opposing sides trades.

Thanks for the info. Here's some interesting reading material

Sounds like Quantum Physics stuff...Is prob(rich)=1-prob(ruin)?
Or perhaps you can be both ruin & super rich at the same time...Parallel universe perhaps?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schr%C3%B6dinger's_cat
In other words, is prob(zero prob event happening)=1-prob(prob 1 event Not happen) or...
Maybe used wheeling to generate many $1tickets...Need 3 brains to come out with a no. selection system...what method did they use for no. filtering before wheeling?
Ok, express this mathematically for any instantaneous B,bankroll, b,bet size, p-q & risk/reward ratio.
i.e. When is prob(rich) at least = prob(ruin), if it is even possible?
The path to ruin is easier. It takes 100% effort just to bring a 50% loss in capital back to breakeven. Dow index takes the escalator up but elevator down.
You got it...The point is to find a mathematical expression of this finite prob.
When is this prob(streak of losses just enough to ruin its bankroll B) > 50%?
i.e. Is it possible to express this prob in terms of current bankroll B, b, N, p, q, etc?
