Random Walk Theory

  • Also known as Time-Series or Absolute 
  • Formula:
    • Ask the following question: Is the current price higher than it was at some defined point in the past
    • If the answer is yes, then buy it
    • If the answer is no, then sell it, short it or do nothing (if you don't own it)
  • Have the benefit of being able to prosper in both bull and bear markets (can follow the trend up or down)
