That's not what the Schroedinger's Cat phenomenon is about. It's about the superposition principle leading to weird results: the cat can be both dead and alive at the same time, classically and realistically impossible. Well, anyway, from what I know, Soros does not seem to know quantum theory any better than you, so don't despair.
You guys are freaking me out, I have a cat, he's weird, his name is Quantum and sometimes I think he's dead when he's still alive. I've been doing this all wrong! P.S. I think I'm bored today
And everyone and particularly BlueHorseshoe should read a book from two physicians called : "Fashionable Nonsense: Postmodern Intellectuals' Abuse of Science" http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...002-4857738-8584001?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 (I have the french version only if not so I would be able to quote you some extracts that would ridiculise some amazing non sense here). It will avoid you to mix concepts like reflexivity - which concerns macroscopic world and chaos theory - and quantum physics - which concerns microscopic scale - with socioeconomics - which concerns human activities - by making abusive generalisation. It is very funny to see that I have something that is a concrete model with numeric results I have presented and that in front of that I have bla bla bla from people like him that discuss generalities and non sense haha !
You're right I have read his book about that - very interesting indeed but it is qualitative and it has nothing to do with Quantum Physics - although the name of his fund is Quantum - it has to do with non linear dynamics and it is rather a metaphore in his head - since he is not a mathematician. - than a reference to chaos theory per se, in fact he doesn't even seem to refer to scientific theory in his book.
As I said when the precision is relatively bad near 4 points the theorical value is suspected to constitute a breaking zone later. For today there was a theorical value at 9612 the real value was 9615.65 so the error of 3.64 rounded would give 4 : this is relatively bad (standard error is rather 2) and after it has been broken towards next target (which was 9595.71 in theory in real it made 9595.35). P.S.: the picture below was in fact for illustrating the Feynman like effect see http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21973&perpage=6&pagenumber=6 <IMG SRC=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=346312>
No on can be this accurate one day early. Your projection model of 7/10/03 predicted for 8/10/03 mkt in the intraday. This is snake oil Harry, or you will be the richest man in the world.
Every night I take a paint tube and I draw these charts : I am a great artist . BTW can you give a function to do that because I'm a bit lazy to do it by hand every day
