hey jimk.... your job sounds interesting. would you ever consider publishing some articles about what you do and how you do it on the web?
I got all psyched after reading soros' alchemy of finance. I tried writing a couple computer programs based on the model he introduces in chapter 2 (reflexivity in the currency market) but kept getting caught up in all those circular relationships. instead I opted to build a website which tried to visualise realtime global market trends through open source mapping technology -
www.financemaps.com. after actually trading fx a little bit, I realised my maps weren't realtime enough...
so with some help from my friends working here in the financial industry in london - we've been trying to rework the site as a non-profit investment portal aiming to educate students and new investors about global financial markets and trading strategies. (the updated site hasn't been launched yet)
We are looking for authors who wish to publish their work on the web. Specifically content related to macroeconomic factors which drive global markets and influence the major currencies, or more advanced trading strategies like the one you described.
If anyone is interested in participating or has an idea for an article - please contact me at
william@financemaps.com.
Thanks and happy investing kids!
