Whilst at school, I covered 2 units of statistics. These included things like:
- Normal, Poisson, Chi-squared, t, and binomial distributions
- Confidence intervals
- Hypothesis testing using a given significance level to determine whether a critical value lies within a critical region
- Correlation and regression analysis
- All the basics regarding numerical methods and such
Does anyone implement any of these principals in their approach to trading? If you don't, but are familiar with these concepts, can you see any way in which they would be useful to a trader?
