Q-Forecasting
As you know, over the course of the last years we developed many algorithms, all
revolving around forecasting.
This is our mission.
Our customers applied them to forecasting in very different areas, from Supply Chain
Forecasting to CRM, from orange juice to the Stock Market.
One of the toughest endeavors is undoubtedly forecasting the Stock Market,
one where many of our customers are applying our techniques with varying degrees
of success. One of the main issues reported is the implicit complexity of the algorithms,
even if we invested a lot to make them as simple as possible. What is the right
parameter? What is the right method? What is the right mix and sequence of algorithms
to use? How do I apply…?
To answer these and other questions and with the objective of increasing our own
wealth, starting in 2006 we decided to build a model of the Stock Market that we
called Q-Forecasting.
We have never bought into the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) and Random Walk
(RW) theories about the Stock Market. EMH is a big simplification of a human
phenomenon and assumes that all participants in the Markets are rational and they
are not, that they are efficient and they are not, that they have all and the right
information and they have not.
The reality of the Stock Market is that in the very short term (hours to days) it
can be random or part of the movements are indeed random, but in the medium or long
term (from weeks to years) it is not and cannot be random.
Most of the participants are irrational, remember Keynes: "Markets can stay
irrational longer than you can stay solvent". Psychologically the Market is
more similar to a manic-depressive than to a rational thinker.
So we developed a causal mathematical model of the Stock Market and tested it
over the course of the years. Of course, this model cannot be a simple mathematical equation,
there is no such formula of the Stock Market and never will be. It is a first approximation
of the probable trajectory that the Market will follow among the many possible
ones.
You can think of it as the weather forecasting, it will not get exactly what happens
in the 5th Avenue in New York on October 14, but you will know whether October in
New York will probably be mostly raining or not.
We focus on two indexes (S&P500
and DAX) and one exchange rate (EUR/USD), and since pictures are worth a
thousand words we provide a three months medium term forecast and a three weeks
short term forecast as a set of images for you to view over the web.
Of course, there will also be a
commentary on the forecasts and at least weekly, we will update the forecasts.
Here you can see some examples of our medium
term DAX forecast computed for all 2008 and 2009 on the DAX index, and
some examples of our
short term S&P500 forecast computed in 2010 on
the S&P 500 index from which you can judge for yourself the accuracy of the forecasts.
Could you ever make money knowing in advance where the Markets will probably go?
How does this system work? How do you guys compute the forecasts? Well, we combined
several different techniques, ranging from digital signal processing, to
artificial intelligence, to our own stochastic differential equations,
most of which are published in the IPredict’s library, in a unique yet effective
forecast.
