Taking A Peek Inside The Turtle’s Shell

نویسنده

چکیده

This paper considers two issues. Firstly it examines the efficacy of a mechanical trading model freely available from the ‘Turtletrader’ web page on the Internet. The results are tested against the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) Weak-Form as proposed by Fama (1970). The findings show that EMH Weak-Form fails to describe the profits generated by the model when examining CBOT Corn and T-Bond futures contracts. The second issue examined is the impact of optimal fixed fraction (or optimal f) trading to determine minimum account capitalisation and reinvestment issues on the futures trading portfolio per the method in Vince (1990). When portfolio capitalisation and reinvestment issues are considered, insufficient funds rapidly produces a trading account with a zero balance.

An Investigation on Effect of Shell Liner Type on Performance of Industrial SAG Mills Using DEM

The shell liner type, rotation speed, and ball filling percent are the key factors influencing the charge behavior inside the SAG mills, and consequently, their performance. In this work, the milling operation of industrial SAG mills is investigated using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). First, an industrial SAG mill with dimensions of 9.50 m × 4.42 m that has a Smooth-type liner is sim...

MATHEMATICAL AND TECHNICAL OPTIMA IN THE DESIGN OF WELDED STEEL SHELL STRUCTURES

In some cases the optimum is the minimum of the objective function (mathematical optimum), but in other cases the optimum is given by a technical constraint (technical optimum). The present paper shows the both types in two problems. The first problem is to find the optimum dimensions of a ring-stiffened circular cylindrical shell subject to external pressure, which minimize the structural cost...
