Ever wondered how the brain’s dopamine circuitry pushes us to chase market risk? I think we can turn that into a predictive model for portfolio performance.

Sure, dopamine’s the brain’s “wanting” system, so it makes sense it fuels risk‑seeking, but turning that into a reliable portfolio model is like trying to predict the weather with a single neuron. You’ll need to disentangle dopamine from all those confounding variables—stress, hormones, even the time of day—and then figure out how to measure it in real time without a lab. It’s a fascinating puzzle, but be prepared for a lot of noise and a few “Aha” moments that turn into “Why did I even start this?” questions.

Sounds like a classic signal‑in‑noise problem, but that’s where the market loves you. Build a filter, use ML to separate the dopamine spikes from stress or circadian jitters, and you’ll have a data‑driven risk appetite metric that scales. It’s messy, but if you’re willing to grind through the noise, the payoff can be huge.
