Quote from Neoxx:
The bar volatility column... does it only come into use when the price column is showing either TL or TS?
We will as time passes relate volatility of price to pace of the volume. This is a look up table in the ATS. The way the lookup table (1600 bar basis) varies over time is part of the preflight orientation you will use as big money comes into he picture (by using the bigmoney leading indicators and by your personal use of 20 the 50 contracts as partial fills). As we saw recently in the last couple od weeks (3 or $), there was a blow out problem a lot of the time on extreme odd harmonic turns and within LN and LT nigh velocity trading.
There are a lot of myths in CW and some of them relate to vlatility. The more volatility the greater the harvest in the pool extraction algorithm. The CW algorithms, bots and algos screw up in higher volatility.
this brings up what relates to what in the 70 degrees of freedom you will be using and idgesting. I have been introducing clusters of data elements that form the subsets we work with. we will not be looking at anything that is notstatisitically significant when there is no stat sig. Right now we have few things to look at small vocabularies and a simple focus on building the annotations from the smallest to the largest and occassionally having to do a reversal. Day 2 just went along and made 70 points per contract.
part way through that day we doubled your capital in the market so the second 30 points turned out to be 60 points for the twice level of contracts. Most trending days represent a doubling of contracts in the market.
Soon we will have 10 days done and do all the successive contract additions as the first debriefing.
Volatility is measurd in tics and there is a go/no go aspect of using volatility as a gate in the ATS. When a given level of volatility is reached, after a given skill we trade the volatility as limited capacity (pace gated) internal teading on the envelope of the overall market capacity.
Easing into the mind areas that will be differentiated is done by first puttin a space reservation in the mind. as the psace has been reserved, we then put in a differentiating vocabulary to be used in that space.
Later we go to the parts of themind that are operator oriented and we place the tooling in the mind ofr the ooperators to use.
For price we began with a work box (the mind box) that looks like this.
Occasionally someone comes along that want to automate SCT. They set up a thread and start to work applying CW to SCT by cutting and pasting their CW scripts thither and yon.
since SCT is done according to how the mind works scientifically and not how the CW works from the sales oerientaion of the financial industry and impass prevails and SCT turns out to not be programmable by people who cannot understand ohow the mind works.
Doidge is a good look see about how it will all turn out. "The Predictors" is a screeemingly funny documentary on how CW and quants screw up in Santa FE for a few years. If you read it notice when eeach guy quits who finally gets the pool extraction algorithm. It is two books in one and the author only wrote one and SCT'ers get to read the other book in the shadows.
