About Emporium SoftwareMy name is Mark Martin.I'm not the NASCAR driver, but I enjoy the jokes. I started out as a computer engineer, but decided that that career is not sustainable. I still do software development, and sell my own investment analysis software called "Pikker". I started investing in mutual funds when I was about 18.My interest in technical analysis of the securities markets started around 1996. I had subscribed to a course that described how to make money in the futures markets. So, I opened an account, and bought a copy of MetaStock. I found that the available software didn't quite address my needs.In particular, I wanted the ability to test a system on multiple securities at the same time. When I got the opportunity, I started working on my own software that could do this. Initially, I did some experimentation with multiple linear regression analysis of stock data. The idea there was to find how a selection of stocks could predict future price movements of individual securities. The matrix calculation tools that I developed were extremely powerful.I later took these matrix calculation tools, and integrated them into a new software package. An application that would trade multiple stocks in and out of a portfolio. The result was Pikker. My business started out as "Mark's Emporium"...which was the business name I put in whenever I needed to register software. When I started selling my software, I did so under the name "Emporium Software". Then when I decided to sell retail on ebay, I registered the business name "Emporium Sales". So that's where it all came from. |
