Anyone here into stocks? I just submitted my CitiSecOnline application form along with the other requirements (photocopies of two valid registration IDs, recent billing statement and PhP X,XXX) this afternoon. I hope that it gets processed right away so that I can start trading!

I’m feeling like a student once again. With the gazillion concepts, terms and topics out there available in this field of business, I think this can keep me busy for the days at a time poring through all the research material.

This reminds me of one of my classes that I took up in college. Decision Support Systems under Vic Reventar. He showed us how to use statistical software in predicting behavior or trends over a period of time. In one of those examples, he demonstrated a portfolio management program that allocated the investments to achieve desired gains while maintaining a certain tolerance for risk. I wish I had a copy of that software! No matter, this looks like a job for Pipboy the Programmer Boy!

There are statistical software out there, you will need the source data though to make it work, which can be bought or can be negotiated from Mr. Swabe Libogia.
