    rt ES ATS journal

    Nice Journal! I have been pondering weekly optimizations also, but not sure the best way to go about it. How do you decide on what time period to optimize on? Do you get next weeks parameters from optimizing last weeks data, or last months, or the entire contract length, etc...

    Pretty much every single successful franchise (and for that matter, most businesses) out there. A tremendous amount of thinking and planning goes into developing the franchise. But very little thinking is involved on the execution side. That's why a high school kid can run and manage a...
