tryingtotakeoverfortekboyhere and doing very well! :0) those are fine posts. The first one put my views very nicely, in a passage the second one agreed with too: "We need better models of cause and effect, not purer statistics. In the case of Mechanical Investing, we should, I submit, be thinking about why certain screening and filtering ideas work and others don't. If we don't ask this question, if we simply try endless variations on screen parameters without theory or theme, then we shall have wandered into the dusty wasteland of statistical empiricism, and we shall deserve every shriek of datamining that comes our way." tekboy/Ares@"maxgo"soundslikemyoptionsstrategy.com
