Disclaimer** This is very preliminary and pretty basic tests I'm running on a VERY small data sample, wish I had more... If what I'm trying is "useless", "stupid", or "naive" please keep it to yourself or start your own damn thread! Premise of this test assumes: - buying at the ask -...

*edit... forgot about feeding trolls

any suggestion on what stock might work better with this type of data?

just updated the csv file to have column names to make it easier to read... might help

oops, logged into an old account.. well here is what I have so far, it is only 2 levels deep, I'll add the other 8 levels on Monday, have a look, see what you think, it's in CSV format http://manageproperly.com/level2.csv

anyone have any theories or tests they want me to run on this data? Starting tonight the data will all be in place and ready to test with. In fact I'll provide a link to download the mysql database in a zip file if anyone wants it. No charge, just remember me when you become a billionaire...

care to elaborate, I would like to get your point

if you don't believe in repeating patterns then how do you base your decision on what to do with your "smoothed data"? I don't nessecarily believe in technical patterns but I do believe that most people will react in a similar way when they are afraid of losing money or afraid of missing the...

not despairing, I don't trade for living and it's much more of a hobby than an obsession. I'm not trying to take humans out of the equation, it just seems that humans are so full of shit, you couldn't really conclusively tell if a trader is good or bad or having a good year or a bad year, so...
