Granger Causality

Yes, sorry, it was not really a real question, but AFAIK, bootstrapping requires iid or at least independence.Not sure then how vidyamurthy does the trick then.Anyhow, the book is not clearly written. I also kinda remembering reading some inaccuracies..

Additional computer languages

<r>I personally would not spend time learning an additional imperative language. I would invest time in trying to work out code with a new approach - pure functional in Haskell, OCAML, F#, for example. I guess that brings more challenges and insights, a fresh new perspective.<URL url="http://www.wil...

<t>The goal of a trading strategy is to make money.I am not sure if picking the relationship with is also supported by Granger causality would give you the "best" trading strategy.Literature is rich of ideas for metrics that can be used to evaluate the quality and tradeability of the cointegrating r...

Pairs trading in futures.

<r>My 2 cents, I haven't been dealing with this prob for a while, but if I remember correctly:CSI's UA user guide gave me some good hints on what can be done (frwd vs backwards adjustments, roll triggers, etc).It may be worth a look: <URL url="http://www.csidata.com/custserv/onlinehelp/docs/UAManual...

server for in-memory data storage

Boost did the trick.The code is probably not "high level" as much as I wanted, and yes, it is C++ instead of a "friendlier" Python or Scala, but Boost did the trick.Thanks for your inputs!

Pestering the thread again.Hey, I am not sure I am going in the right direction, but here is a state monad in scala.The idea is that the monad could pass along the lattice, instead of the fibonacci serie, and do all that has to be done.Bad idea?

<t>Yes, we all agree on a mixed model, benefiting from the best of both worlds.Happy to read that my initial guess, back on Friday, has been confirmed.@Vivien:"I don't see where you need states. I think PDE can be implemented in a pure functional style without using monad (or imperative prog)."State...
