The bottomline is only the judge RM,people can blather away with randomness theory meanderings,but the fact versus the fiction is are you outperforming the market with what ever system you use. All persons blather about their rightness versus others stupidity are invariably fools.Max90 I am sure ahhha or whatever his name is,would consider Anthony P and a salivating neanderthal for his market playing methods. Bottomline is the judge,period.Max90

In-and-out engages to an exponential degree the binding to asymptotic return of that activity which is extremely negative. Every system determined decision is built partially on the previous decision's error which is skewed negatively. A system uses information already processed and so is a feedback mechanism. The skewing comes from the feedback of expected error. Systems multiply error. When you randomly select you disengage from that added error and error is held to additive rather than multiplicative in the tableau of time series states.

Interesting, I like the idea...A random walk with a long term drift. No doubt the drift or DC component would be caused by fundamentals.... the fundamentals of the company, major HFC advantages, general conditions of the business, sole source agreements with MSOs etc. Kind of reminds me of a circuit equivalent model. A spring or capacitor stores energy. In the case of ATHM, like a spring which has been significantly depressed [undershoot], its earlier energy would still be stored in the circuit. Eventually this would cause the stock to rise deterministically even though continous random sources of energy are causing it to behave seemingly random. Given that the recent cycling were due to news which were mostly non-events [YHOO, AOL buyouts etc] they were not long term forcing function. The only real forcing function was the overall inflation driven market movement which forced all issues lower. One could contend that these are also random. Subsequently if the market picks up, one would expect the movement of ATHM to be a function of on-going random sources, and previous price levels which will tend to drive the stock upward towards earlier levels.
