Market Information Machine (MIM) is a patented, time tested data mining software designed by and for traders looking for way to analyze financial time series data coupled with ever expanding database of historical market events. Developed by top scientists from Bell Labs and IBM, MIM software generates profitable trades at all of today's top performing hedge funds, brokerage institutions, and investement banks on Wall Street, London, and beyond.
MarketHistory.com began as a fax service - on-staff traders used MIM to find interesting trading ideas and fax these out to LIM's clients world wide. After the Internet became widely accepted, email replaced fax as distribution platform until, in 1998, our parent company LIM (now part of Mornigstar) launched MarketHistory.com website you're visiting today. Since day one, our mission remains unchanged: empower savvy investors of all skill levels to profit from history and the unique ideas generated by Market Information Machine, and offer easy access to the powerfull market research tools for performing Event Analysis.
We use Event Analysis to give us - and you - the answers, and the edge.
Profitable edge begins with an event: a seasonal date, technical signal, or news for a specific security, such as an earnings surprise. Rather than relying on the textbook or gut interpretation of indicators we let history tell us how equity, commodity, or currency markets responded to such event or combination of events in the past.
Markethistory's Event Edge & Nitro allow quick and easy execution of sophisticated queries regarding historical commodity, equity, bond and economic data. Event Edge enables rapid testing of trading rules with simultaneously added date and time conditions, as well as fundamental factors.
Markethistory's ability to dynamically view thousands of different events according to the hundreds of factors surrounding them is the essence of Event Analysis. After we distill all the relevant information, the result are trading ideas that have a high historical probability of success.
