    Techno-Psychological Setups

    Seriously... this thread is funny. "Theoretically, starting with Freud...", emotions are feedbacks from the sub-conscious mind. So the original poster thinks, for some reason, that he knows what the market is doing, or what the market will do sub-consciously. So he consciously turns his...

    Combining multiple systems

    1/36 : -10 8/36 : -5 16/36 : 0 2/36 : 5 8/36 : 10 1/36 : 20 Profit = 11/36 Loss = 9/36 Breakeven = 16/36 I'm not going to bother posting any charts and code stuff for this but the Std. Dev. (or... Sharpe) of the curve will be smoother. Question is what fitness you'd use to...

    Combining multiple systems

    I got an E-mail from a buddy reading this thread, telling me I'm correct, along with a pdf file so I'll pass that along in ET. (It's not a big secret file, it's easy to find if you googled this... What they mention is nothing special too, just some rational thinking about probability theory)...

    Combining multiple systems

    You're still disappointing me. :p 1. "Deeper" meaning re-arranging the concept using it as an idea? 2. Roughly similar idea.... Potentially fruitful... Great. So it's roughly a potential idea that is fruitfully similar to what you used? :confused: Anyways, I think I've given it...

    Portfolio System Optimization

    What do you mean theoretical justification? You're doing it on your Excel sheet right? Are you using something without any clear justification? You mention, about finding robust combinations. Tell us what conditions to look for to identify a robust combination?

    Combining multiple systems

    For starters: :D :D :D :D :D 1. Your stuff is dependent. 2. Signal hedge... There was a paper written by someone about 7+ years ago. I can't recall the details but it was written by an old school developer like Mark Johnson or Mark Brown... I know that it's by an OG poster from...

    Combining multiple systems

    The question I get is, if you optimize your performance of your portfolio using some fitness (like Sharpe) how will you readjust it? I agree that statistical tests to be the core function of the decision process. But we deal with multiple systems within different trading style. I can have a...

    Barett Jackson Car Auction-lower Prices This Year?

    The moral of the story is... You shouldn't be investing stuff based on second hand trend. So why not go for baseball cards or comics.... They've got investment value and no one's been talking about their bubble.... How about... Sports Memorabilia... ebay has some active markets for...
