  1. These things are as easy as a bachelor's course.

    As a programer I'm fascinated by building models tobforrcast the future robust with Bayesian inference to update the actual distribution. Additionally mommy amagrmemt with continuous Kelly criterion. I am currently reading a paper about quantum trading, and sure to be a blessing tobyeild fruitful results as soon as I try quantum subroutines on any quantum computer
    Besides I would top off my program with an extra cherry 🍒
    Reinforcement learning that makes learning interactive as model adapts and gets rewarded to recurrent market structure. (and so do you your account)
    I am interested in trading options hedging and handling losses mutual I have the knowledge that some would pay a ton for.
    If you're reading that means you're like me and interested
    Frankly I need money, I'll help you with your account if I have a cut too. A win-win situation where everyone is happy. I am ready to help you model even meet you in person and teach you all the different tools you need from:
    AI, statistics,to mathematics. I'll help you discover the bliss and joy of simulating different scenarios discovering hidden characteriatics
    In plain sight.

  2. I'm a bit confused what the argument is. My point about assuming no drift was just that as delta t gets smaller, the drift terms go to zero faster than the volatility terms in the calculations. If I'm trying to determine the chance I will lose $1 million today, a 10% return over a year doesn't really matter in my calculation much, it is just a 0.04% change per day. A typical volatility might be 2% a day, an effect 50 times bigger.

  3. Typically I think about drift in terms of years, e.g. my estimate of a particular stock might be up 20% over the next year. Volatility matters at all time scales. As you zoom in to small time scales the volatility overwhelms any drift. As you zoom out to longer time scales the drift starts to matter in the calculations (but there is still volatility). If you're hedging and looking at the daily risk, drift becomes almost insignificant.

  4. @NathanWhitehead That's a great idea. What system do you use to get the blackboard effect?

    Also any more study notes? And have you checked out the posting by BionicTurtle, highly reccomended.
    Thanks
