David will provide an overview of EidoSearch's technology, and the newly discovered green field in “unclassified” price trends that pattern search technology is now able to deliver to the market. David will also validate the predictive nature of price trends, based on years of research and hundreds of millions of simulations, and he will briefly review how these concepts can be applied to a systematic trading strategy to generate excess returns (please see chart below).
