Description 1 online resource (1 volume) : illustrations
Summary The world does not unfold according to a fixed set of rules. It is a dynamical system whose evolution looks like a bell curve with fat "tails." The same is true of financial markets. However, every day we rely on the certainty and precision of mathematical strategies that assume the contrary to control and grow wealth in markets. Tail Risk Killers shows you how the rigidity of model-based thinking has led to the fragility of today's global financial marketplace, and it explains how to use adaptive trading strategies to mitigate risk in impending market conditions
