Yes. Given 100 binary digits there are 2^100 different possible combinations. Therefore the chance of getting all 0's is 1 in 2^100, not very likely but it can happen. This is why you can't ever be 100% sure that your causal model really explains things or is just coincidence but if presented...

You can't really put things through a test that says either "yes its definetly random" or "nope not random". All you can do is look for a model that can determine futures states ie If it is sunny and yesterday was up then today is up if not then today is down. If you find that this model works...

Probably but it would depend on the specifics of the situation and exactly what the perceived trigger for the payoff was.

A computer program "A random process is a repeating process whose outcomes follow no describable deterministic pattern, but follow a probability distribution. " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randomness To be very pedantic and look at the most isolated events in the universe yes because...

this one is my favourite

Is there no one who sees the connection to trading in this? No one cares to find out the statistical biases that there are in human perception? I thought that people would be interested in this. I guess I should have started a thread about paris hilton or a classic "GO SOHRT U WILL MAK MONEY...

lol I was going to post the same thing.

actually this would translate to 0010 = 2 1010 = A 1010 = A 1110 = E 1010 = A 1010 = A 0101 = 5 1000 = 8 1010 = A 1010 = A 1010 = A 1001 = 9 0101 = 5 0100 = 4 1010 = A 1001 = 9 0100 = 4 1010 = A 1101 = D 0110 = 8 1101 = D 1010 = A 0111 = 7 1010 = A 1010 = A 0000 = 0...

Im gonna keep bumping this until I get at least 40 serious posts. 3 is much too small of a sample size.

Revealing biases in human decision making which can suggest possible heuristics for financial market inefficiency mining.

5) Don't follow this example:

I thought an interesting thing to test would be to see how good people are at generating random numbers. I will have people post random number sequences of 0's and 1's here and I will analyse the results to look for any biases. Here are the rules. If not followed your post will not be...

"He is completely matter-of-fact ... almost without emotion," Inappropriate apathy is a symptom of schizophrenia.

the width of the united states is 2,680 miles and the speed of light is 186 000 miles / sec so 2680/186000 is 0.0144. Assuming there was a direct cable (which there is not) from one end of the US to the other a one way trip could only happen in 14 ms.

I watched a talk that buffet did (you can probably google it) where he described that he looked for companies that have a strong "mote" which was an analogy for the perception of a company and what it symbolizes in peoples minds. The fact that in this very post I use the phrase "google it" is a...
