See this for a good explanation...The new, improved fed funds market

<t>True, zero-sum does not explain price-discovery. Price can still be driven up when there is a general bullish view. And I thought that the need to roll or close before first notice would drive prices back down, but this is discarding the fact that both the long and short holders must get out... n...

<t>Good day, Here is something I do not seem to be able to grasp. Lately, we hear a lot about the effect of speculation on commodities prices. See for example this. published this morning on bloomberg. Now, I understand the concept of large speculative buyers having an effect on the price of a stock...

{0,1,2,3,4,5}{0,1,2,7,8,9}Assuming we can flip the 6 to get a 9, this numbering scheme works.

1 > Prob(union) > Prob(intersection)For the first part. Now prove the second part Show that An\(union Ai, i<n) has probability 0.Then use sigma additivity.

You can get real time data in C, and use Matlab compiler to convert your matlab code to C code instead, and use this as a library from within your initial program. I think matlab also provides a special toolbox for real time applications, but I woul not bet on this, I am not sure

Indeed. Nicely done.

Trial and error argument Could this be done by the solver?Can you have != relations between two variables in it?

<t>No.Start with 5s. We have? ? ? 5 _ _ _ _ _ 5 ? ? ?Add 4s. Wlog we can have:4 _ _ 5 _ 4 _ _ _ 5 _ 4 _ 5 _ _ 4 _ _ 5_ _ 4 5 _ _ _ 4 _ 5Trial and error on those shows that we cannot. Alternatively, label x1 the position in 1 and 10 where you put the first one. label x2 the position in 1 and 10 where...

<t>And what if the outcome of the game was:1/1000 -> 993$ gain1/1000 -> 5$ gain998/1000 -> 1$ lossThen I was just lucky winning the 5$ at the beginning because this is a faire game with null expected gain.I don't think there is enough info without assuming a distribution on the outcome of the game. ...

<t>Hi guys. I'm enrolled in the computational finance master's degree at UDM starting this fall term. I thought it would be more interesting than HEC's one as it is a program that combines mathematics, computer science and economis professor and I assume the level is higher than that at HEC but I mi...

Indeed, counter-intuitive. I though initialy that the single post would not need to be that long...Quite amazing that it needs to be 119m to lengthen the rope by a single meter.

<t>Easy, but interesting. You tie a rope around the earth at equator. During the night, a friend of yours plays you a tric and unties your knot, adds a meter to the rope and ties it back. If you were on the next morning to walk around the earth, adding posts to hold your rope to make it tight again ...

Do you give the ipod if we tell you the answer ?
