Pairs trading and market efficiency using an adaptive market hypothesis framework : a pitch

This letter describes my personal experience of articulating a research idea into a standardized research pitch. I have used the pitch to communicate my idea with potential PhD supervisors. Developing a research proposal that covers all necessary aspects is a challenging process. The research pitch facilitates this process by providing a systematic approach towards the issue. I have found the completion of the pitch to be a positive and fruitful experience.
