Sensors in trading process: A Stress—Aware Trader
Javier Martínez Fernández, Ralf Seepold, Juan Carlos Augusto, Natividad Martínez Madrid · 2010
Decision-making for trading requires a complex infrastructure: technical analysis, fundamental analysis, expert systems indicating propitious moments of operation, and more. However, one very relevant element is usually underestimated: a trader's stress level, which can significantly undermine the trader's capability to think clearly. This paper explains how stress information can be gathered from sensors during a trading operation, which sensors can be used for this purpose, and proposes a decision-making process supported by measuring stress through sensors which can lead to a Stress—Aware Trader.
