How the Quantum Forecast works
Research from quantum physics. The models are the result of several years of research at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and LMU Munich and were transferred to the stock market.
Spectra and correlations. Frequency spectra are calculated from current prices, and the relationships between price swings and volatility are analyzed. This produces the forecast and the risk assessment.
Detecting herd behavior. Models of phase transitions from statistical physics describe when investors collectively fall into panic or euphoria – an early sign of possible crash situations.
Swarm intelligence. User forecasts are checked once their time frame has expired and feed into the model, weighted by their hit rate.
