Linda’s talk will explain the way she quantifies market structure and how she then uses this in her trading models. One of her favourite projects in the past 6 years was modelling instances where there was ‘persistency of trend’ or what she calls, “extended runs”. The frequency of occurrence of these trends and the consistency of the statistics behind them is surprising. Linda will review some of the more common technical conditions or patterns that lead to “extended runs”, and explain the difference in her experience, between modelling price behaviour and actually trading.
