Well, I'm up 35k in this months trading contest, and extrapolating exponentially I should win about 250 million this month. How did I manage it? I have a new strategy.

Is it fundamental analysis? Chart patterns? Bayesian aggregation of indicators?

Nope.

"Eliot wave" theory has served me well in the past, but henceforth I shall be using the similar, but more advanced, "Timewave zero" theory, which uses the Ancient Chinese Iching to predict the fractal nature of reality, and, well, markets are part of reality, aren't they?

It is at heart a very simple system, which is elegantly described as follows:

"the "revealed" axiom that all phenomena are at root constellated by a wave form which is the hierarchical summation of its constituent parts, morphogenetic patterns related to those in DNA. ... We argue that the theory of the hyperspatial nature of superconductive bonds, and the experiment we devised to test that theory, yielded ... a modular wave-hierarchy theory of the nature of time that we have been able to construe, using a particular mathematical treatment of the I Ching, into a general theory of systems, which illuminates the nature of time and organism and provides an idea model which explains the interconnection of physical and psychological phenomena from the submolecular to the macrocosmic level."

— Dennis and Terence McKenna, The Invisible Landscape, original (1975) edition, pp. 101-103

With such a clear explanation, it's applications should be intuitively obvious, but in case anyone is confused on the finer points of how to apply this to market analysis, here is an example:



Here we see the classic "random walk" pattern. Considered as surface froth on the bubbling holographic reality, it is considered strongly indicative of the price going up, although whether it is the price of euros or yen which will go up remains to be seen.

Well, its been a good start to the month. I hope April 2nd is just as good.
