THX – XMas 2023 ( SLC) – Sep 2024; v7

THX 2023: started re-organizing the whole thesis around Behaviors; like re-writing a C program into C++; consolidated my thoughts during the trip to SLC and walks in the snow in the mountains; post SLC rewrote v2 of Palmistry, dTB & Drivers

started testing as v6.2 around Makar Sankranti – & the results are phenomenon, although no new concepts are added, simply the existing ones redefined as v2 of various disciplines

Mar 2024 – MahaShivRatri

changed the coordinate system from “struct-space-time” to “time-struct–space” & data points as “H vs !H” – Happening vs not-Happening .. like Heisenberg’s Uncertainty principle; this changes the sequence of disciplines that i use in decision making

Jun 2024

finalized MB Diff Eq. using Behavioral Physics, v2 & Behavioral Maths v2 (2023) using Vars[5] { Emotions Force Time Struct Space } … started this exercise in Q3 2018, when i imagined that there will be 5 variables to capture MB, based on no. of elements used in Einstein’s as well as Newton’s eq. – If you can’t solve a problem w/ 5 Vars, you don’t have a solution yet ..!

& it turned out to be exactly 5, but it took 6 years to arrive at them .. & now they are here ..!

Sep 2024

finalized T/Coord on the trip to Monument Valley & Mesa Verde Park

Feb – Nov 2023, v6

in Feb 2023, came up with Z (Market Energy), which changed everything, again! … so i called it v6, in which each of disciplines was rewritten as v2; rewrote the model, now based on e-Momentum and e-Energy (e- stands for emotions)

May 2023, i came up with a thought that since i am using Behavior-Math to capture MB, shouldn’t i be using behavior-numbers, instead of normal numbers [0 .. 9] – fixed magnitude, equidistant from zero, which i have been using so far; so, i came with new ways to capture Market Behavior where each unit is an independent wave, variable amplitude in time and also the starting point of the wave (known as phase may vary, giving sine vs cosine waves)

with new ingredients, i developed of B-Math, v2; where all Market operations are done based on wavy nature of its units (i call them behavior numerals) & rewrote, the whole thesis, again, starting my visit to Los Angeles, when Market had the first serious drop of 2023 & the 1st [of 3] turnarounds on my B’day until Page AZ in Sep; market TA on the last Lunar Eclipse of the Year (Oct 28 2023)

Jul 2020 – Dec 2022, v5

Janmasthami 2020 [in Corona lock down],  i had a new set of thoughts, thinking about Market Behavior (MB) as a finite set [of objects], collectively i called them as Market Universe (MU); i.e. not only MB is NOT random, but also, its a collection of finite & fixed set of pre-defined objects/behaviors, which are based on Human behaviors; just like an electron has a discrete & finite set of energy states possible (per Quantum Mechanics)

Unlike a thinking of time, as liner, in Hinduism, time is considered as cyclic, & and top of that i added that it runs over nested cycles, starting with Sanatan (means which has no beginning & no end, a concept from Hinduism) & many cycles underneath; which led to v5 & the first version of the model.

v5.1 was about developing cycles of time; which followed a camping trip in Snow State Park, UT in August  … after returning from the trip, came up with new set of ideas, which became v5.2, which lasted till US presidential election (Nov 2020), when i made a trip to Death Valley, where i conceived the concept dT : phi , & developed between THX & X-Mas 2020 (v5.3)

Jan 2021 (Makar Sankranti), things changed, again!, as i began thinking about Market Behavior as Uncertainty vs Certainty; i.e. what i know at any point of time vs what i don’t or can’t, which led me to think in terms of Heisenberg’s principle of uncertainty, as when you dealing with Uncertainty, only few variables can be captured as pre-defined and let others go; although when defined mathematically, one can be derived from the other, as in probability distribution of location of electron, the timing & nature [of structure] can not be predicted in advance.

what the hell i am talking about … ? only time will tell (Jul 2021), but it feels exciting and keeps me going, although i am on v5 now & the 8th year of this journey.

2021 has been non-stop learning and experimenting … that Ms.M runs within a guided path in her own universe, driven by pre-defined events and structs … based on the famous line that .. “space time defines matter how to move; and matter tells space-time how to curve”  … Universe is simply a balance of forces ..!

spent 2021 developing Behavior-Mathematics & rewriting the whole thesis in B-Maths as v5.4  & turned into A Restaurant based model in the summer of 2022, as v5.5 & finally added Predator vs Prey Behaviors in Dec 2022 (Cabo Mexico).

Jul 2019 – Jun 2020 : v4

started v4, on top of v2 & v3 –  the macro & the micro into one; plus, introduction of emotional wave principle as one of MB … & later i added a completely new mathematics to handle human emotions and behavior; i.e. price is a wave and is an outcome based on current state of human emotions & change in price is based on human behavior in reaction to external forces – sounds like a model of physics built using mathematical equations – & that’s exactly what it is – something, i aspired to do for a long time.

here is the travel log with v4:

v4.1 (May): camping trip to Zion, UT

v4.2 (Aug): Palm Springs & San Diego, CA

v4.3 (Sep): another camping trip to Grand Canyon, AZ

v4.4 (Nov): Steamboat Springs, CO

v4.5 (Dec): Poipu Beach, Kauai, HI

the duration of the versions is decreasing rapidly as v1 took about 10 years (2000 – 2010) working part-time, v2 about 2.5 years working full-time … v3 took one & half years as my life cycle was simply: trading  – researching – experimenting, documenting & testing; plus cooking, eating & sleeping; & v4 has been an extension of v3 life style.

for some reasons, in Dec 2019 (Kauai trip, v4), i thought i will be done for a while, but the funny thing about my mind is that it never stops … so in 2020, as i integrated e-pendulum principle (PP) with wave principle (WP), i had a new chain of thoughts … like light, which behaves as particle as well as wave, price also has a point as well as wave behavior .. just to share a synopsis.

& then Corona arrived on Wall Street on 02/2020 … what a timing ..?  & market had the fastest ever drop of 36% … for me, each market drop gives the opportunity to live in a hurricane and learn things about it, & this one was the biggest since i started trading (Feb 2011).

Diwali 2019 – the website & the blog

reading my own website is my favorite activity – going through my own state of mind in past, as how my mind as well as this site has developed one day at a time … i realized that building this website, which has 34 pages now (started with 5 pages in 2014) and the blog, which has 1668 entries (also started in 2014), are my biggest achievements in last 5 years .. this accomplishment is so paramount & a huge change in me, as being a student of mathematics & logic, i was never comfortable in writing … since my childhood, things are either so obvious to me that there is no need to write them, OR  i never understood them, no matter how hard i tried writing or otherwise – a boolean scenario & in either case, i used to find it difficult to write about them. 

the website is nothing but the current state of my mind – how i am able to connect Nature, Humans and Markets together with the help of physics, mathematics & economics …  although i have my own versions of each of these disciplines as be-physics, be-Maths  (be- stand for behavioral & emotional!) & behavioral economics & the blog is nothing but a collection of steps in this journey, which happened to be 1668 at this moment .. 

moreover, all of this is one man effort; i.e. mua & no employees & no boss – the secret to my happiness ..!

Feb 2018 – Jul 2019 : v3

in Feb 2018, as volatility rose from 11 to 50 over three days in Feb, it was like the market is hit with an earthquake at +1 level [to what you are prepared for], which happened for the first time in 7 years of my trading life & allowed me to collect the market intricacies and behavior while experiencing an earthquake (or hurricane, which suites) .. & led to a new version of my thesis (v3) .. which turned me into a micro-trader (my own term) versus a day-trader (v2).

v3 was about discovering the fine moves of Ms. Market going against the machines; e.g. how pressure is developed over a period and released (yes, market and earthquake behaviors are similar .. don’t you feel that way?) … in terms of intra-day structures and patterns (equiv. to design patterns in object orientated modeling for tech dudes) & their relationship with external forces.

as i traveled to various destinations to solidify my thoughts:

v3.1 (Apr) : Aspen, Co & Cancun, Mexico

v3.2 (Sep) :  Los Angeles, CA

v3.3 (Nov) : Maui, HI

v3.4 (Jan 2019) : Snow hikes in Zion, UT

an year+ long journey with single theme .. at each travel point, i feel that i have accomplished so much, and always get new ideas; but there is no way i even had a slightest thought that i was 2.5 years away from the completion of v5, as in Jul 2021.

Jan 2018: VIP’s Trading Station

“Time is the most precious commodity, convertible into money; however, the reverse is not true”

the pictures in next section is what i wake up to each morning (0430 AM PST) to go to work, which happens to be 20 feet away from my bedroom – a dream come true ..!

inspired by star trek, the only TV show i saw in my childhood, & based on my own design, the trade station captures everything that impacts our financial lives around the world & space, round the clock, & then processes, analyzes & presents so i can trade … it works mostly in auto pilot mode, as i work & snooze, during multiple shifts in a day … it took countless number of dreams (i work while sleeping as well) & iterations & lots of dollars to build … it is so intelligent that i trust the keyboards, mice and screens more than myself … as the machines do what they are supposed to do, & tell me what i should do, which is not much … & all i have to do is play like an orchestra and the music flows (see the connection with music!) which turns into money.

the theme here is “black & white” … the station consists of 8 computers & laptops, 24 screens  (Sep 2018)  & other pieces of hardware … all glass, metal & leather furniture supporting the black & white theme … it covers 345 degrees over two layers, with me in the center … so, i think in “black & white” (several smart people have told me this), live in “black & white” (the pictures tell all), work in “black & white” (market only moves as long or short), using computers which store and process data in “black & white” (i.e. zeros and ones) & am rewarded in “black  & white” – i.e. at the end of the day either i make or lose money ..!

​

the number of employees needed to run the business: uno (me), even though the yearly trading volume quadrupled between 2014 & 2018.
