    funny you meniton the prado peace. i had the feeling that someone fills a book with tables and save the effort writing anything. by tables i mean all kinds of things, including data as such (if i remember correctly). i found it a waste but you are the second person on ET who recommends it.

  7. You are saying it like old is not good ..
    Pythagoras, Newton, Fermi, Bohr & co. = still good and valid probably for ever .
    I go a few steps past " structural analysis "

    we are currently trading sp500 stocks on a market neutral basis using price only. we are doing some research on intraday futures - 18 markets minute data. plus some research on daily futures data. we have some indication that our equity tradng should work on nikkei 225 stocks as well - currently checking brokerage.

    we are using very simple methods as well as more sophisticated analysis. but none of us is a real "trader" in the sense of sitting in front of the screen all day - which i see as the biggest handicap within the team at the moment.
