I am a senior Economics student at Shepherdstown, WV. I've become interested in trading as a way to avoid a 2 hour commute from my soon to be home in central New Hampshire, USA.
I trade mostly on political doublespeak and media absurdity. So far my trades have focused on monthly swings in equities and commodity ETFs, most recently I am taking a deeper look into LNG. I am eagerly awaiting action on the current administrations initiative to fight climate change via approval of a pipeline through the heart of the American food supply. :)
I have a limited amount of exposure to the hard sciences (my minor is in biology) and I am thoroughly underwhelmed by the assertion that economic theory is inherently ...More unverifiable. I am interested in developing realistic, testable models for modern macroeconomic mechanisms demonstrable through trading surpluses.
I am currently most intrigued by Hayek, Cantillon, and Steve Keens' interpretation of Minsky.
