herbijudlestoids: i want to construct some kind of benchmark index from the different assets and use that to build information ratios etc
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: returns definitely seem to skew positively, the distribution does not show the commonly taken levy form that i usually see, more like poisson distribution
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids looks remarkably centered tbh
herbijudlestoids: similar formation to the 1 tick returns i plotted yesterday, seems like there is plenty of room for speculators

mircea_popescu: well, that's fine, but it doesn't help in this angle.

lippoper: mp, i'm not sure how it all works to be honest, but from what I understand Canada gives businesses more confidence to deal in virtual currencies because at least they've defined it as a commodity.
