Anyone have a glossary or index for newbs? Like a shortcut to reading the symbolic notation? I have some expository knowledge to sets (ie. sets are denoted by capital letters). And some of the symbols (ie. the vertical pipe means given or

How do you know there isn't a russian doll scenario of sock puppets all the way down, and some other hedge fund isn't going to profit in a few months from all of this on a trade we never heard about? After all, the hedge fund ind
