Methodology

The GenX Vision

A framework that treats financial markets as living systems with genetic code, evolving strategies to match each instrument's statistical signature.

Why genetics?

Markets are not random walks. They exhibit persistent statistical structures — volatility clustering, momentum, mean reversion, fractal dimensions — that can be described, measured, and exploited.

GenX's hypothesis is that each market has a unique DNA: a fixed-length vector of eight statistical chromosomes that summarises its behaviour. Strategies that match the DNA have higher expected success rates.

The eight chromosomes

I

Volatility

Short and long-term realised volatility, ATR.

II

Persistence

Hurst exponent, autocorrelation.

III

Volume Bias

Directional volume pressure.

IV

Correlation

Cross-asset dependencies.

V

Fractal Structure

Fractal dimension, self-similarity.

VI

Regime

Trending, ranging, or volatile state.

VII

Efficiency

Market efficiency ratio, entropy.

VIII

Stability

Stationarity, structural breaks.
