What mathematical tools helps you invest on the stock exchange and forex?
I love math. I love graphing data. I love algorithms. I love computers. I love Excel. I love mathematical modelling. So it pains me to say this. Math will tell you what the current trend is. You can see the trends graphically using Yahoo!Finance. E.g., to see trends in the S&P 500, go to^GSPC : Summary for S&P 500 - Yahoo FinanceBut math can not (yet) tell you when the current trend will end. The current trend is based on current conditions. The current trend will end at some time in the future when conditions change. Math can not (yet) tell you when conditions will change or how they will change. My best idea so far is to extend control chart methods to tell me if the stock market is “out of control”. The idea is to detect changes even before knowing what’s happening that causes those changes. But so far I have not succeeded. Stock market prices are sufficiently fractal that control limits depend a lot on the time period you pick.

b) Mean μ = 1.3 Standard deviation σ = 0.7 Standard error σ / √ n = 0.7 / √ 9 = 0.2333333 z= (x-μ) / σ P( 1 < x < 2) = P[( 1 - 1.3) / 0.233333 < Z < ( 2 - 1.3) / 0.233333] P( -1.2857 < Z < 3) = 0.4015 + 0.4987 = 0.9002 (from normal probability table) e) Mean μ = 1.3 Standard deviation σ = 0.7 Standard error σ / √ n = 0.7 / √ 18 = 0.1649916 P(x > 2) = P( z > (2-1.3) / 0.164992) = P(z > 4.2426) = 0.0 (almost) would that tend to shake your confidence in the statement that μ = 1.3%? Yes. Do you think the European stock market might be heating up? Yes.
