"NeuroQuant Profiles", released weekly, specializes in the application of 
cutting edge technologies for financial market prediction. We use 
proprietary quantitative models and indicators that coalsce Technical, 
Fundamental, and Psychological data to aid in the prediction of direction 
in Mutual Funds, individual Stocks, Indices, and Options on a global scale. 
                                                   
The usage of proprietary cutting edge technologies like Neural Networks, 
Genetic Algorithms, Fuzzy Logic, and elements from Chaos Theory makes our 
methods a very unique one. Our models are not mechanical systems - they 
learn and adapt to the ever dynamic and global interactions of financial 
markets.

	What's really eye-popping is how closely NN, GA, fuzzy logic 
	and a bit of Chaos thrown in for good measure can imitate 
	a run-of-the-mill investment newsletter!
