00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:04,040
when I started doing trading I had
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:08,040
gotten a little tired of mathematics I
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:11,000
was in my late 30s had a little money I
00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:13,080
started trading and it went very well uh
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,040
I made quite a lot of money I with pure
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:17,480
luck I mean I think it was pure luck it
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:20,600
certainly wasn't mathematical modeling
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:22,600
but in looking at the data after a while
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,640
I realized hey there looks like there's
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,359
some structure here and I hired a few
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,640
mathematicians and we started trying to
00:00:26,359 --> 00:00:32,759
make some models just the kind of thing
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:34,280
we did back at Ida you you design an
00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:36,160
algorithm you test it out on the
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:39,680
computer does it work doesn't it work
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:42,160
and so on but the the real thing was to
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:44,559
gather a tremendous amount of data and
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:46,360
and uh we had to get it by hand in the
00:00:44,559 --> 00:00:48,480
early days we went down to the Federal
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,920
Reserve and copied interest rate
00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:52,480
histories and stuff like that cuz it
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:57,160
didn't exist on computers we we got a
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:57,160
lot of data and very smart people
