Me at SGBarcamp4

I have put my thoughts together to finalise the talk, "Automated forex trading and the world of MQL4", for the coming Barcamp at Suntec Tower 3, Singapore this Saturday. The people who attend such barcamps are broadly two groups: the the techies and the social media/networking enthusiasts. So we have people who are hard core coders and those who are knowledgeable about Web2.0 stuff.

I hope to cover the "101" of automated forex trading using MQL4; that's alot for a half hour session that is not supposed to be one-way but interactive. On the other hand, I hope to introduce interdisciplinary mashups of talents into the world of forex trading - so i will cover the 1st to 5th derivative of linear displacement, price distribution with skewness and kurtosis and astro finance. I don't have time to put together the frequency domain trading via cycles and bandpass filters. Not sure if I have time to cover so much, we will see. Let's see if we can surface more talents into this difficult field, otherwise it is good to let programmers know that perhaps this is one area and minefield to explore, with caution.

Me at SG Barcamp

My friends are organising a barcamp in Singapore on 21 Nov 2009. I have decided to join in the fun and hope to present the MQL4 automated forex trading to a group of fellow developers in other areas.

What is a barcamp? Essentially a conference where the contents are user-generated. It is usually open, participatory and contents used to be technical but nowadays there are more fun topics like "How to date a Japanese girl" (presented by a Japanese girl). Attendance can range from a few hundreds to a thousand. Barcamps are getting popular with a group of like-minded people hustling together to explore the changing world advanced through new IT technologies and ideas.

One has to fight for a slot so hopefully I can share something. Otherwise, there will always be a next.
