It leads to dark unpredictability. The other kind of complexity is the flip side of chaos-apparent complexity obscuring exploitable order.
Farmer draws a square in the air.
But we are now sliding up to here, where it gets interesting-where the apparent complexity is high, but the true complexity is still low. Up here complex problems have something in them you can predict. And those are exactly the ones we are looking for in the stock market. With crude computer tools that take advantage of the flip side of chaos, the Prediction Company hopes to knock off the easy problems in financial markets. Find the merest hint of a pattern, and then exploit the daylights out of it.
