I’m a private investor, who manages part of his assets by trading US stocks on a short-term basis. Contrary to common wisdom, I belief that markets are predictable to a certain extend when considering short time frames. I feel that my professional background in aerospace engineering and computer science actually helps me to analyze markets and understand speculation as a probabilistic process, where a small edge can lead to systematic gains over the long-term. Key to successful investing requires a method to separate signal from noise, something I try to accomplish with my “holistic swing trading” strategy.
Despite the fact that my main profession is in the software industry, I am able to monitor US stocks on a daily basis because I am located in Germany. The time difference is playing to my advantage, since Wall Street is open until 10pm our time.
