Do you want to hear the music of markets?

Quote from facultus:

It'd be interesting to switch it around and see what "Sex Machine" by James Brown looks like on a stock chart.

I have a chart visualization pattern for Pink Floyd's Dark Side .... You have no idea how interesting it looks! I cannot post it, the file is too big.

Sorry, I can't get the concept of putting the stock market and music together. I wonder if you could take the concept further and reduce the noise and further assign patterns of movement a specific note on a scale. Musicians are often wonderful mathematicians and vice-versa. I wonder if we paired recurring patterns to a specific note what it would sound like and whether or not there would be a "song" because after every crescendo there is a lull. I'm working this out in my head so I hope this post made some sense.

Edit: I posted this without reading Vanilla's post, he's already asked the question.
 
personally, i found there was more information in the rhythm of trades than the pitch (price level) of trades .... but then was left wondering if the rhythm i was hearing wasn't so much ebb and flow ala a squawk, rather the belching of tradestations data feed.

it sounded sort of like a cha-cha

I have started my research with chart patterns but I discovered that it is much better to get sounds of supply/demand functions i.e. AskSize/Price-BidSize/Price. The files that I posted are very short (ET limitation) but if you listen to them long enough its just like looking at the Level II! Very useful!

Well, instead of notes we'll just use drum sounds, bass, top hat, snare, etc......

Hmmm. OBV might be a good one, maybe add notes to candlesticks. Great thread abogdan!
 
here is a quote from an old post

Quote from nasdaqmadness:

I know a guy that makes 20K a month. He trades through Cyber Trader and uses no charts what so ever. His total systems consists of a program called Market Tones. Converts any action that you want to program into musical notes. Example 2000 shares of INTC hit at the bid plays d flat Hit at the ask plays d sharp. He trades only 3 stocks and and listens to the music of the market. He trades in the dark and usually smokes 1-2 joints before market opens. He sits in an old oak swivel chair with his back to the monitor and stares at a blue and black poster of the universe. when he hears the right music he goes long the basket of stocks. If the market is sounding flat he shorts. He only trades until 10:07 he says this was the exact moment that the universe was created. He got into trading because in 1994 when he was high on mushrooms his cat actually spoke to him and told him that "trading was the only peaceful battle."He bought an island off the coast near Nova Scotia and is going to retire at 10:07 on December 31st the end of this tax year. He flies a Hughes 500 helicopter from his home in Newfoundland to his Island every weekend. I asked him what his secret was and he told me that It was His ........ Got to get the phone will finish this post later
