In summary, the conversation is about a project involving the mathematics behind human interaction in the currency market. The speaker is looking for a programmer with knowledge of mathematics to build a program that can simulate a real euro/dollar market. They also mention the importance of finding someone with expertise in computational finance, with advanced degrees in physics, engineering, or mathematics and a high salary potential. Payment for the project is also open for discussion.

I am currenctly doing a project on the mathematics behid human interaction in the currency market. I am looking for a programmer capable of building a program to run simulations based on mathematical equations and other parameters which I will supply that can mimic a real euro/dollar market place. I would love some feedback concerning which programming language would be the most adequate and also I programmer with a good knowledge of mathematics would be perfect (calculus and statistics).

Payment can be discussed.

The New York Stock Exchange would call the individual your looking for to be one who specializes in Computational Finance. The person would have advanced degrees in Physics, Engineering, or Mathematics. Salaries for the solid performer are very high, 2 to 3 times that of their cohorts who are employed in the traditional fields. It took my nephew about 3 years to become a millionaire via salary and fortuitous investments. He had masters degrees in math and business.

Firstly, it is important to carefully consider your goals and objectives for this project. What specific aspects of human interaction in the currency market do you want to model? What variables and parameters will you need to include in your simulations? Having a clear understanding of your project's scope and objectives will help you determine the most appropriate programming language and find a programmer with the right skill set.

In terms of programming languages, there are several options that could be suitable for this type of project. Popular choices for mathematical modeling and simulation include Python, MATLAB, and R. Each of these languages has its strengths and weaknesses, so it is important to research and consider which one best aligns with your project's needs.

Additionally, as you mentioned, it would be beneficial to work with a programmer who has a strong understanding of mathematics, particularly calculus and statistics. This will ensure that your simulations are accurate and reliable. You may want to consider reaching out to universities or online communities to find programmers with this specific skill set.

Finally, it is important to discuss payment and compensation with your chosen programmer upfront. Be sure to establish clear expectations and communicate any budget constraints you may have. This will help ensure a successful and positive collaboration.

Overall, I wish you the best of luck with your project and hope you find the right programmer to bring your simulation to life.
 

1. What is auction market modeling?

Auction market modeling is a type of mathematical model used to simulate and analyze the behavior of auction markets. It involves creating a set of equations and algorithms that represent the interactions of buyers and sellers in an auction setting.

2. How does auction market modeling work?

Auction market modeling works by taking into account various factors such as bidder strategies, market demand, and auction rules to predict the outcome of an auction. The model uses mathematical equations and algorithms to simulate the behavior of buyers and sellers and their interactions in the auction market.

3. What are the benefits of using auction market modeling?

There are several benefits of using auction market modeling. It allows for a better understanding of how auction markets operate and how different factors can affect the outcome of an auction. It also helps in predicting market trends and making informed decisions in auction settings.

4. What types of auction markets can be modeled?

Auction market modeling can be applied to various types of auction markets, including English auctions, Dutch auctions, Vickrey auctions, and many others. The type of auction market being modeled will determine the specific equations and algorithms used in the model.

5. How accurate are auction market models?

The accuracy of auction market models depends on the quality of data used and the assumptions made in the model. While these models can provide valuable insights, they should be used as a tool to aid decision-making rather than a definitive prediction of auction outcomes.
