The BlogS Of The Day

All the blogs read by the CASTrader blogger, Alan Jewell, who is, by the way, one of the Midas Oracle contributors. :)

I’m republishing here his reading list.

QUOTE

The Big Kahunas of the financial blog world (imo): The Big Picture and the Kirk Report, both of which linked to me a few weeks back. A belated thanks, guys. Both are very popular for many reasons. Ticker Sense is the blog of Lazlo Birinyi’s firm – their graphs are typically worth a thousand words.

Brett Steenbarger’s TraderFeed – Trading psychology guru and lots of market analysis deep into the mechanics of the market. His weblog is chock full of interesting links.

C(omp)++ – Quant oriented computation – need I say more?

CXO Advisory – excellent summaries of applicable financial research. Nearly every article is a must-read, imo.

Midas Oracle – Chris Masse’s blog is a humorously provocative firehose of information on the prediction markets. It’s a community blog where Chris graciously invited me to be a guest author, and I’ve written a post on traders and the prediction markets and moi. Someday in the not too distant future, I hope CASTrader will hook into prediction markets. Until then, I’ll just write about them there from time to time like I know what I’m talking about.

FINTAG – Adventures, commentary and opinions of a UK-based (soon to be ex?) hedge fund manager. All About Alpha is a Canadian who appears to be tapped into the bleeding edge of the hedge fund world.

Ken’s Nonsense – a misleading new blog title, because posts are anything but. By a former math professor turned computer engineer/trader.

Lloyd’s Investment Blog – Low volume, but interesting research.

Michael Covel – Author and trend follower – good links from time to time, plus he interviewed with Lindsay – what more could a blogger aspire to?

MoneyScience – Another relative firehose of information, with plenty of quantitative finance and science mixed in – a must read.

The Quants: QuantInvestor, World Beta and Quantitative Trading. Must reads all.

C++ Trader – a new blog by Mathew Henry who works at a “boutique investment bank” and whose blog title says it all. Mathew, along with Rod at Perfectly Reasonable Deviations (another blog I read religiously and link to often) nominated this blog for the Thinking Blogger Award, for which I am very honored.

The Park Paradigm

Herb Greenberg – There’s $$$ hidden between the lines of some of his posts, as I can certainly attest.

Wall Street and Technology – Always nice to know how the big boys and girls do it.

Yaser Anwar – new to me, but good stuff from a range of perspectives.

Portfolio Analysis. Very new, but looks like it will be a good one based on the articles so far.

plus a couple of quant boards for good measure:

Nuclear Phynance

Elite Trader

END OF QUOTE

Let’s add CASTrader (A quest for 50%-plus returns in the financial markets via Complex Adaptive Systems and Quantitative Finance) in the list. :)
