Penrose diagram of an infinite Minkowski universe, horizontal axis u, vertical axis v. In theoretical physics, a Penrose diagram (named after mathematical physicist Roger Penrose) is a two-dimensional diagram capturing the causal relations between different points in spacetime through a conformal treatment of infinity.
Futures contracts are commonly used for hedge or speculative financial goals. Futures contracts are used to hedge, or offset investment risk by commodity owners (i.e., farmers), or portfolios with undesirable risk exposure offset by the futures position. [7] Futures are also widely used to speculate trading profits.
A golden rectangle—that is, a rectangle with an aspect ratio of —may be cut into a square and a smaller rectangle with the same aspect ratio. The golden ratio has been used to analyze the proportions of natural objects and artificial systems such as financial markets , in some cases based on dubious fits to data. [ 8 ]
Sample point and figure chart with box size set to $5 and reversal threshold set to 3 box sizes. The correct way to draw a point and figure chart is to plot every price change but practicality has rendered this difficult to do for a large quantity of stocks so many point and figure chartists use the summary prices at the end of each day.
It is written using the Greek letter phi as () or (), and may also be called Euler's phi function. In other words, it is the number of integers k in the range 1 ≤ k ≤ n for which the greatest common divisor gcd( n , k ) is equal to 1.
William Delbert Gann (June 6, 1878 – June 18, 1955) or WD Gann, was a finance trader who developed the technical analysis methods like the Gann angles [1] [2] and the Master Charts, [3] [4] where the latter is a collective name for his various tools like the Spiral Chart (also called the Square of Nine), [5] [6] [7] the Hexagon Chart, [8] and the Circle of 360.
E-minis are futures contracts that represent a fraction of the value of standard futures. They are traded primarily on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.As of April, 2011, CME lists 44 unique E-mini contracts, [1] of which approximately 10 have average daily trading volumes of over 1,000 contracts.
The multiplier for the Dow Jones is 5, essentially meaning that Dow Futures are working on 5-1 leverage. If the Dow Futures are trading at 10,000, a single futures contract would have a market value of $50,000. For every 1 point the Dow Jones Industrial Average fluctuates, the Dow Futures contract will increase or decrease $5.
