Download or read book Beating the Financial Futures Market written by Art Collins and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-10 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beating the Financial Futures Market: the 2021 Almanac is the third addendum to my original 2006 full-length book. It has the most per-page number of systems of the three, and that's saying a lot considering how hard I knocked myself out for the other versions. As with most of us, I did have an increased percentage of stay-at-home-time in 2020, which may in part explain the generous output. My general teaching M.O. is that what I see, I share. And over the last year, I saw a lot. Some of the 2021 Almanac's systems hold trades three or four days. Others are quick in-an-out 10-minute sprints. Some key off classic indicators like RSI or Dojis. Others are built from the ground up. There are signals you can set for a single next-day trade right after today's close. Others might get you in several trades within a session. There's an especial emphasis on day trading; what I trade in my personal account these days. I'm enjoying my daily clean slate with none of the nasty overnight surprises I once endured. All three almanacs, (2017, 2020 and 2021) are almost entirely stand-alone information not found in the counterparts, nor in the original 2006 book. That's my little "you can't go wrong buying them all" spiel. But obviously, the 2021 version is going to have the most up-to-date market appraisal. In addition to systems, near-systems, biases and raw stats, there are essays that figure to be timeless. They're derived from years of interviews with standout trader/advisors plus 35 years of my own jagged trading experience. While systems may drift in and out of favor over the long haul, some adages will remain eternal. The markets are largely a hodgepodge of emotion, after all, and human impulses don't change much over history. There's a quote I freely borrow from Bob Pardo that perfectly encapsulates the back-tested trading strategy. "If you could demonstrate whether something would work out or not, why wouldn't you want to know?" Seems like a no-brainer to me. I'd be honored to help you find some answers.
Book Synopsis Beating the Financial Futures Market by : Art Collins
Download or read book Beating the Financial Futures Market written by Art Collins and published by . This book was released on 2020-03 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the two most powerful day-trading indicators?How can a Dow-S&P comparison predict probable market direction?Should we expect an opening gap to continue its direction, or will it more likely retrace toward the previous close?How can anybody's day trading methodology almost certainly be improved by observing one simple trading rule?These are just some of questions answered in Beating the Financial Futures Market: the 2020 Almanac. This addendum to my original like-titled 2006 full-length book is intended to be a treasure-trove of stats. Some are simple discoveries of which buy/sell side is "downstream as opposed to fighting the current", while others are powerful enough to use as actual mechanical systems. As always, nearly everything I allege is backed by actual performance studies in all five of the major U.S. stock-related index futures. I post the complete Trade Station code for every system as well as full disclosure in simple English. I take pride in my transparency- "giving away the store" as one associate dubiously put it. But hopefully, this time I've pushed the quantity side of information also. If the 2017 Almanac was written for skeptics (a 10-year post-publication performance follow-up to my 2006 systems), the 2020 counterpart is for people like me. Those excited by numbers and what they reveal. Stat geeks.There's a significant day trading emphasis in this volume. It's my method of choice these days. Clean slate, no adverse overnight surprises. I longed to transition to this style for a while-after some struggling, I've arrived, more content than ever and eager to share.The same trader critical of how much I "give away" had another observation. If you could demonstrate whether something would work or not, why wouldn't you want to know?Why indeed? Join me in my joyful discovery.

This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of how financial markets have evolved over time and became increasingly more complex. The author, a successful and experienced trader, who among other things won the 2015 battle of the quants futures contest held in New York, shares how one can navigate today's dangerous financial markets and be successful. Readers at all levels will benefit from his analysis and many real life examples and experiences. The coverage is broad and there is considerable discussion on ways to stay out of trouble, protect oneself and grow one's assets. The author was the first one to do turn of the year January effect trades in the futures markets starting in the beginning of S&P 500 futures trading in 1982. That has been successful and the author explains his ideas and experiences from the beginning in simple markets to the current, very complex markets we have in 2017.The author discusses the various ways that traders and investors lose money in the financial markets. Many examples are provided, including Long Term Capital Management, ENRON, Amarath, Neiderhoffer's funds and many major companies such as Lehman Brothers, Society Generale, Saloman Brothers. This is invaluable to understanding ways to avoid such losses.The author discusses great investors, their methods and evaluation and the authors' work with several of them. Risk arbitrage and mean reversion strategies are described through actual use. Asset-liability models for pension funds, insurance companies and other financial institutions devised by the author are described. The author uses racetrack bias ideas in behavorial finance in trading index futures and options. Large stock market crashes that can be predicted are discussed with several models of the author and others. Many mini crashes including the January-February 2016, Brexit, Trump and French elections that are plausible but largely unpredictable are described and how they were dealt with successfully.Along with ways to deal with them, investment in top quality racehorses, oriental carpets, real estate and other interesting investments are covered. The author was instrumental in viewing racing as a stock market. The ideas are used by the top racing syndicates as well as hedge funds.The book proceeds by weaving these aspects of the financial markets in the modern era into a story of the author's academic, professional and personal life. This is told through the people he met and worked with and the academic and personal travel he had all over the world this past half century. The text is simply written with details, sources and references in the notes of each chapter. Details of various important events and how they evolved are described. There are numerous color and black and white photos in the text plus graphs, tables etc. in the notes to tell the story. The teaching and research into various financial and gambling markets takes the reader to interesting places around the world. These include the US and its many stock market ups and downs, Japan when they were ruling the financial world and then they collapsed, the UK visits with lectures, teaching and research work at their great Universities including Cambridge and Oxford, Europe with many activities in France, Italy, Germany and other places, to Asia including discussions about travels to Persia, Turkey, Singapore, Korea, China, Afghanistan, Russia and other countries. Also discussed are visits to U.S. universities including Chicago, MIT, Berkeley, UCLA and Washington. His work with horse racing syndicates took him to Australia and Hong Kong. Crises like those in Greece, US housing and internet and the flash crash are discussed.

Book Synopsis Financial Market Bubbles and Crashes, Second Edition by : Harold L. Vogel
Download or read book Financial Market Bubbles and Crashes, Second Edition written by Harold L. Vogel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economists broadly define financial asset price bubbles as episodes in which prices rise with notable rapidity and depart from historically established asset valuation multiples and relationships. Financial economists have for decades attempted to study and interpret bubbles through the prisms of rational expectations, efficient markets, and equilibrium, arbitrage, and capital asset pricing models, but they have not made much if any progress toward a consistent and reliable theory that explains how and why bubbles (and crashes) evolve and can also be defined, measured, and compared. This book develops a new and different approach that is based on the central notion that bubbles and crashes reflect urgent short-side rationing, which means that, as such extreme conditions unfold, considerations of quantities owned or not owned begin to displace considerations of price.
Book Synopsis The Man Who Solved the Market by : Gregory Zuckerman
Download or read book The Man Who Solved the Market written by Gregory Zuckerman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 401 pages. 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.
Book Synopsis Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States by : National Research Council
Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

And yet we played on, because we had hope that we might be the lucky ones." In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant--and that her lover is married--she refuses to be bought. Instead, she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle, sickly minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home, and to reject her son's powerful father, sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through the generations. Richly told and profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty. From bustling street markets to the halls of Japan's finest universities to the pachinko parlors of the criminal underworld, Lee's complex and passionate characters--strong, stubborn women, devoted sisters and sons, fathers shaken by moral crisis--survive and thrive against the indifferent arc of history. *Includes reading group guide*
