Stocks fell after China’s central bank weakened the currency’s daily reference rate by the most since - [Nifty Technical Story](https://bitnes.top/nifty-technical-story/) - The Stock Market is Beautiful! The market is a place where money is made when points of view differ. The market speaks to us in the universal language of numbers. These numbers represent price action (plotted on the y - axis) which when measured over time (plotted on the x - axis) forms a 2-dimensional - [John Ehler's Sinewave Indicator Code](https://bitnes.top/john-ehlers-sinewave-indicator-code/) - A reader recently inquired about my use of this indicator and so below I provide my Octave C++ .oct version that I have been using for the past few years. DEFUN_DLD ( sinewave_indicator, args, nargout ) { octave_value_list retval_list ; int nargin = args.length () ; int vec_length = args(0).length () ; // check the - [Denoising Autoencoder MATLAB/Octave Code](https://bitnes.top/denoising-autoencoder-matlab-octave-code/) - Following on from my last post I have been looking for Octave code for the denoising autoencoder to avoid reinventing the wheel and writing it myself from scratch, and luckily I have found two options. The first is a tutorial on autoencoders, by a Piotr Mirowski, which has a link to a Github page with - [Recent Readings and New Directions.](https://bitnes.top/recent-readings-and-new-directions/) - Since my last post I have been doing a fair bit of online research and fortunately I have discovered the following papers, which mesh nicely with what I am trying to do with Conditional Restricted Boltzmann Machines to model time series:- Deep Learning Architecture for Univariate Time Series Forecasting Temporal Autoencoding Restricted Boltzmann Machine Temporal - [Giving up on Runge-Kutta Methods (for now?)](https://bitnes.top/giving-up-on-runge-kutta-methods-for-now/) - Over the last few weeks I have been looking at using Runge-Kutta methods for the creation of features, but I have decided to give up on this for now simply because I think I have found a better way to accomplish what I want. I was alerted to this possible approach by this post over - [Runge-Kutta Example and Code](https://bitnes.top/runge-kutta-example-and-code/) - Following on from my last post I thought I would, as a first step, code up a "straightforward" Runge-Kutta function and show how to deal with the fact that there is no "magic mathematical formula" to calculate the slopes that are an integral part of Runge-Kutta. My approach is to fit a quadratic function to the - [Runge-Kutta Methods](https://bitnes.top/runge-kutta-methods/) - As stated in my previous post I have been focusing on getting some meaningful features as possible inputs to my machine learning based trading system, and one of the possible ideas that has caught my attention is using Runge-Kutta methods to project ( otherwise known as "guessing" ) future price evolution. I have used this - [Recent reading](https://bitnes.top/recent-reading/) - In my last post I mentioned that I was going away for the summer, but now I'm back. During the summer I didn't get to do as much reading etc. as I had hoped, but I did manage to play around with the Rssa package for singular spectrum analysis and this is still an ongoing - [Results of Permutation tests on Cauchy-Schwarz](https://bitnes.top/results-of-permutation-tests-on-cauchy-schwarz/) - Following on from my previous post, I have to say that the results have been quite disappointing - in all the tests I have conducted so far I have been unable to reject the null hypothesis. These tests are still on-going and I may yet find some gold, but it is looking increasingly unlikely and - [Cauchy-Schwarz Matching Algo Revisited: More Tests](https://bitnes.top/cauchy-schwarz-matching-algo-revisited-more-tests/) - Some time ago I blogged about my Cauchy Schwarz inequality inspired matching algorithm and some tests of it here and here. More recently I have come across a nice paper about developing and back testing systematic trading strategies here, courtesy of the quantnews.com aggregating site, and being motivated by the exhortation in said paper to - [Accounting for Data Mining Bias](https://bitnes.top/accounting-for-data-mining-bias/) - I've recently subscribed to this forexfactory thread, which is about using machine learning to develop trading systems, and the subject of data mining/data dredging has come up. This post is a short description of how mining/dredging can be accounted for, but readers should be aware that the following is not a precise description of any ## Pages - [My front page](https://bitnes.top/) - Bitness is the fairest trading platform in the world, trustworthy, transparent, and no price manipulation.
