My first post here - so apologies if I break any protocols inadvertently.<p>Are there any financial modeling quantitative types over here? I am working on an idea (at a very early stage - hence nothing substantial to post) and was wondering if folks who model investment decisions based on analysis of historical data visit this forum. I am a novice in this area as well :)
I know a few people on HN who are <i>interested</i>, but probably not thaaat much ahead of you. For example, I find the idea quite itneresting myself and have considered getting more intimate with quantative trading software, but have yet to get around to actually doing anything. I do love complex event processing (CEP) distributed computing type projects though. They intrigue me :)
I've applied economics to historical and current data to discover where markets were mispricing assets. But for myself, as a hobby. Not sure what you're looking for but might be able to point you to a source of info...
