I'm pretty sure LTCM traded according to non-random theory, cause all this stuff is pretty well known and is reflected in option prices-g- Still, it's close enough to a random walk, so in the 1-st approximation these theories are correct. They are incorrect essentially because there is always a finite probability of a crash. LOL! Luc would sure love that.
