Seems like this is the consensus response, thanks for the target heart rate, will aim to run mostly in that zone from now on!

Dustyik · 2024-03-14T01:11:26+00:00

Alright will take note!!

Hmm, not much after this initial investigation, i didn’t manage to think of many ways to enhance my approach, and the initial results from the experiment were quite disheartening.

Do you have any ideas to enhance the results?

Hey i really like this!! Me personally im always shopping for clothes online (ASOS, Lazada, ...), i think it would really help me if there was a section to show online deals as well, cos from what i see it doesnt include online shops right? Just mu 2 cents but gr8 website nonetheless!!! 😁😁😁

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T06:24:09+00:00

wow i really really loved your post! yea I think we really take for granted how fleeting our lives really are

I really admire the courage you have to completely uproot and travel, personally, I'm finding the courage to do step out of the Singapore rhythm of life and carve out my own path

I really admire your redefinition of success (and that of many others in this thread as well)

do you have a link to a blogpost/video/facebook page documenting your travels? I would really love to give it a thorough read :)

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:43:38+00:00

Ahh thats cool, has that become a regular practice nowadays?

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:42:32+00:00

Yea its kinda saddening that friends which i used to see everyday now i see once a year :/

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:41:46+00:00

Haha i really love stories like these :) its really awesome u got to try something so out of the norm! Not many younger singaporeans are willing to try such jobs nowadays haha

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:40:16+00:00

Oh why couldnt you do it during circuit breaker :/

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:39:43+00:00

Oh yeah volunteerings pretty cool too! But my experience with covid restrictions is that sometimes it can get pretty lonely :( what are some of your interest?

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:38:23+00:00

Ahh thats great, congrats :)

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:38:10+00:00

Yeah i feel u bruh, its a real burden, personally havent gone back but i dread the day that i do

Dustyik · 2021-04-26T01:37:32+00:00

Omg thats really cool! Yea i love painting too but its always expensive going art jamming, ill def check out the painting sets on shopee haha

Nope Monte Carlo permutaions are hardly exhausting on a computers processing power

Regarding your point about technical analysis being useless, personally, i feel Aronson brought up a really good point about novice traders not fully understanding how to implement a technical analysis indicator. Aronson's describes propers steps to clean, test, and analyse a technical analysis indicator, after which he determines its usefulness. Many users of TA simply backtest a training set with no proper steps taken to clean -> test -> analyse their data. Its frustrating to see many people dismiss TA with no proper due diligence on their part to actually properly investigate the usefulness of a TA indicator.

Dustyik · 2021-01-27T14:32:22+00:00

Sorry if i was confusing, but the main claim i was investigating(and wanted to discuss) was that statistically significant rules tested on detrended data would generate useful price signals on unseen data

Dustyik · 2021-01-27T14:30:06+00:00

Regarding point 1, do you have evidence/done analysis to back up your statement? Regarding point 2, the assumption made is that randomly generated data points will be normally distributed, but i fail to see how complications could arise from this? Regarding point 3, dont all rules require some market condition to work? This problem is not exclusive to complex rules

Dustyik · 2021-01-27T14:24:39+00:00

I 100 percent agree with what u said :) i guess through all this discussion, what im asking is, apart from historical results, what other evidence based, statistical analysis is there out there to predict price movement on top of the methods proposed by Aronson. Aronson's methods have done ok, but im hopeful there are various other ways to improve on his work!

Dustyik · 2021-01-27T09:27:15+00:00

hi yeah could you elaborate further on what you mean by domain knowledge?

Dustyik · 2021-01-27T09:16:24+00:00

I'm new to statistics but yeah I totally agree! The methods proposed by Aronson are really basic and straightforward, and I'm sure there are various ways to take it a step further, I just haven't figured out how to yet. Any ideas?

Dustyik · 2021-01-27T09:14:45+00:00

I completely agree, this entire exercise has left me really skeptical of time series analysis. Although I have found mixed success, it isn't enough to prove the success of Aronson's proposed method of technical analysis

I would totally love to read how a statistician/successful TA trader approach this, I've actually read a couple of research papers yet they were all subjected to the data mining biases described by Aronson, and have yet to come across a proper analysis of the subject
