If you prefer a cheaper black and white version, please expand "See all formats and editions" to find it. Financial markets are essentially time-series data driven events consisting of valleys, peaks, and in-betweens of ups and downs. For more than a century, many pioneers had attempted to come up with various theoretical models to facilitate forecasting and timing market moves. For example, as early as in 1902, or 119 years ago, S. A. Nelson, a friend of Charles H. Dow, attempted to explain Dow's methods in his book titled The A B C of Stock Speculation, which became later known as "the Dow Theory." 20 years later in 1922, William Peter Hamilton carried on and wrote the book The Stock Market Barometer, which explained the Dow Theory in more detail. More recently in the last few decades, the advent of advanced computing technologies helped create numerous technical indicators, such as Relative Strength Index (RSI) by J. Welles Wilder (1978), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) by Gerald Appel (2005), Stochastic Oscillator (SO) by George Lane (2007), and Bollinger Bands (BB) by John Bollinger (2002), etc. Those powerful theories and indicators have been heavily studied and well-known in the financial circle. However, they are empirical and lack quantitative verifications out of solid backtest results. This book helps fill these vacancies. This text attempts to help explore how one can forecast and time markets more quantitatively. For this purpose, the author developed a model-based system, named AlphaCovaria, to help demonstrate how to use various simplest, readily available technical indicators to forecast and time markets approximately while eliminating subjective speculations at the same time. Centered on various math models, the author's AlphaCovaria system has three main components: an AlphaCurve program for charting, a BTDriver program for running all backtests, and an AlphaCovaria driver for generating buy/sell signals based on symbol profiles learned through backtests. This kind of formula-driven approach is more promising for building more high-performance strategies. The text is made concise and precise of about 100 pages only, as a working method does not need to be wordy. Math models, data and charts can help explain more effectively and convincingly. Also, inspired by those classical models, the author came up with a new indicator named simple cascading indicator (sci), which beat all those classical models in most cases, based on the backtest results with 29 carefully selected symbols and past 15 years' price data. This 2nd edition of the book also shared my live trading experience using real money in my Fidelity and eTrade accounts with my AlphaCovaria system. Such data can be found nowhere else.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Market Timing and Investment, Performance Part II: Statistical Procedures for Evaluating Forecasting Skills I. Introduction In Part I, one of us developed a basic model of market timing forecasts where the forecaster predicts when stocks will outperform bonds and when bonds will outperform stocks but he does not predict the magnitude of the superior performance. In that analysis, it was shown that the pattern of returns from successful market timing has an isomorphic correspondence to the pattern of returns from following certain option investment strategies where the implicit prices paid for the options are less than their "fair" or market values. This isomorphic correspondence was used to derive an equilibrium theory of value for market timing forecasting skills. By analyzing how investors would use the market timer's forecast to modify their probability beliefs about stock returns, it has shown that the conditional probabilities of a correct forecast (conditional on the return on the market) provide both necessary and sufficient conditions for such forecasts to have a positive value. In the analysis presented here, we use the basic model of market timing derived in Part I to develop both parametric and nonparametric statistical procedures to test for superior forecasting skills. The evaluation of the performance of investment managers is a topic of considerable interest to both practitioners and academics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Shortlisted for the Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award The unbelievable story of a secretive mathematician who pioneered the era of the algorithm--and made $23 billion doing it. Jim Simons is the greatest money maker in modern financial history. No other investor--Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, Ray Dalio, Steve Cohen, or George Soros--can touch his record. Since 1988, Renaissance's signature Medallion fund has generated average annual returns of 66 percent. The firm has earned profits of more than $100 billion; Simons is worth twenty-three billion dollars. Drawing on unprecedented access to Simons and dozens of current and former employees, Zuckerman, a veteran Wall Street Journal investigative reporter, tells the gripping story of how a world-class mathematician and former code breaker mastered the market. Simons pioneered a data-driven, algorithmic approach that's sweeping the world. As Renaissance became a market force, its executives began influencing the world beyond finance. Simons became a major figure in scientific research, education, and liberal politics. Senior executive Robert Mercer is more responsible than anyone else for the Trump presidency, placing Steve Bannon in the campaign and funding Trump's victorious 2016 effort. Mercer also impacted the campaign behind Brexit. The Man Who Solved the Market is a portrait of a modern-day Midas who remade markets in his own image, but failed to anticipate how his success would impact his firm and his country. It's also a story of what Simons's revolution means for the rest of us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial Risk Forecasting is a complete introduction to practical quantitative risk management, with a focus on market risk. Derived from the authors teaching notes and years spent training practitioners in risk management techniques, it brings together the three key disciplines of finance, statistics and modeling (programming), to provide a thorough grounding in risk management techniques. Written by renowned risk expert Jon Danielsson, the book begins with an introduction to financial markets and market prices, volatility clusters, fat tails and nonlinear dependence. It then goes on to present volatility forecasting with both univatiate and multivatiate methods, discussing the various methods used by industry, with a special focus on the GARCH family of models. The evaluation of the quality of forecasts is discussed in detail. Next, the main concepts in risk and models to forecast risk are discussed, especially volatility, value-at-risk and expected shortfall. The focus is both on risk in basic assets such as stocks and foreign exchange, but also calculations of risk in bonds and options, with analytical methods such as delta-normal VaR and duration-normal VaR and Monte Carlo simulation. The book then moves on to the evaluation of risk models with methods like backtesting, followed by a discussion on stress testing. The book concludes by focussing on the forecasting of risk in very large and uncommon events with extreme value theory and considering the underlying assumptions behind almost every risk model in practical use – that risk is exogenous – and what happens when those assumptions are violated. Every method presented brings together theoretical discussion and derivation of key equations and a discussion of issues in practical implementation. Each method is implemented in both MATLAB and R, two of the most commonly used mathematical programming languages for risk forecasting with which the reader can implement the models illustrated in the book. The book includes four appendices. The first introduces basic concepts in statistics and financial time series referred to throughout the book. The second and third introduce R and MATLAB, providing a discussion of the basic implementation of the software packages. And the final looks at the concept of maximum likelihood, especially issues in implementation and testing. The book is accompanied by a website - www.financialriskforecasting.com – which features downloadable code as used in the book.

The author shows analysts how to use these techniques to forecast price movement profile, extent, and timing of reversals, putting investors on the road to trading with minimum risk and maximum success.
