Thought experiment based on a line in @GZuckerman's book "The Man Who Solved The Market" where he describes how Renaissance trade their signals "to capacity" to make it harder for others to discover the same signals.
What would that look like?https://twitter.com/macrocephalopod/status/1357291507196264450?s=20 …

To a casual researcher who doesn't look at fast enough timescales (or doesn't have the infrastructure to trade that quickly) it will look like this signal has been arbitraged away and they probably won't try to trade it!

That's what I think the quoted Renaissance exec means when they say that they trade signals "to capacity" so that other researchers won't discover them. I've no idea how important it is for their edge, but it surely doesn't hurt. Fin.
