Predict Quadratic Trend in Time Series agree w/richard. The code should not even run without errors as it is displayed. |

Fastest algorithm for calculating retrospective maximum drawdown There is only 1 path from inception (and only 1 iteration required with vectorized dd result of that path). What you are describing above is a rolling dd (*Note I specified since inception). If you have a time series and can show an example of your algorithm and time, I will reproduce using a vectorized approach and compare times. |

Fastest algorithm for calculating retrospective maximum drawdown A vectorized approach (since inception) is very fast. |

Are there any tools or useful algos for identifying corner portfolios? *Also, see zivot links below. "The the set of efficient portfolios of risky assets can be computed as a convex combination of any two efficient portfolios." |

Why are regressors squared and not ^1.5 or ^2.2 or ^2.5? Because a negative number raised to a non-integer exponent is complex. Of what use would regressing physical economic values have here? |

Bootstrapping first, then data mine? I have heard good things about meboot, and started to run it, but I'm not so sure it captures both auto and cross correlations well. It doesn't really make any sense to do cross validation after the data set has been mined. The ideal method would be to train/validate/test over each slice fold set... so that every slice is not biased in any way by the slice that is left out. If you have a strategy, however, you could run the CV over parameters of the same strategy to evaluate robustness. |

Generate tick data from candlestick It would be akin to extrapolating daily price data from only having a yearly data OHLC source. One might be better off by at least generating bootstrapped data from a some samples of tick data. At least then, some of the properties might be captured. |

Coin Toss System @Freddy. You stated, "I have not heard of long-term successful "market operators" to generate profits off the back of predicting what the next tick/bar/day is gonna be as a function of the past couple observations, dictated by certain observed or quantified "patterns". " I gave one concrete illustration where that was the case. I agree with just about everything else. |

Coin Toss System I'll throw a disagreement (only) on the pattern side (although I do agree few approach it successfully). As an example, please see Toby Crabel's work and accomplishments (he utilizes the conditional probabilities of simple 'coin toss' like experiments as a pattern based decision). There are other more complex ways to apply the logic as well. But the key, as you point out (IMO), is that markets have properties like drift and momentum that make such methods feasible |

What are the proper metrics to look at for checking discrepancies in these two time series It would be interesting to see a scatterplot of the data. Even though you have poor cross correlations, you might be able to detect some level shifts in the plot and formulate if there is an easy calibration for the shifts. |
