To find your way around the website :
For recent topics that have caught my attention : see Bill Howell's "Blog" (via the "Blogs" menu item). Be warned : "recent" usually means within the last couple of years, as I don't often update the blog. I focus on mid-to-substantive projects that take time.

[Random, scattered] selection : 3 of Howell's projects

I will change this every six months or year, just to profile my different projects. Most key projects are listed in the "Projects" menu (menu link above). Many are also referenced on "Howell's blog" (see menu at top of this web-page) in text-only format.

Tesla [call,put] options graphs

25May2021 Here are two example graphs of TSLA options that I have been working on. I am far from getting into options trading, I just want to learn more about the market. For more details (but no webPage yet), see QNial software coding for options data processing (also "winURL yahoo finance news download.ndf" in the same directory for yahoo finance news downloads), and several graphs of Tesla options.

David Fischer - The Great pricing Waves 1200-1990 AD

This very incomplete webPe gives some background on the themes of "great waves of pricing" in history, notably "price revolutions" of rapidly rising prices, and "price equilibria" of post-crash declining or modest price increases. Some ancient [Babylon, Greece] commodity pricing is also included. Fischers book is fascinating, and is perhaps suggestive the the [potical, economic, financial market, social] theories are not relevant at this scale, as the effects and societies' responses seem largely independent of ideas, with the big exception being the role of technology?
