Assuming this were true, why not simply keep a list of kids who run afoul of the law? Seems like that has more predictive value that kids who have poor study habits and test taking skills.

What is "Money?" In one sense, it is a medium of exchange. Nothing more, nothing less. In another sense, it is fiat currency-- government issued currency. What is counterfeit currency? It is merely the imitation of fiat currency-- U.S. dollars. Since Bitcoin, is not an imitation of U.S...

In October 2020, I decided to begin a career transition from a systems administrator to a software developer by enrolling in a Python certificate program at the university. My last class will be in August 2021. The the bulk of the class will entail creating a web app, using Python and Django...

2020 was good, actually best year ever, when I chose to buy and hold instead of getting in and out of trades. The irony is that I lost my job in 2020 due to COVID-19. I used my severance to purchase more stock. As the economy returns to normal in 2021 and 2022, I expect my profits to rise...

I didn't call the man a moron, you did...lol. Their attacks are couched in epithets. That's what I am getting at... The motivation behind a company paying in RSUs vs Bitcoins is a factual difference that has nothing to do with my point. My point is both are forms of compensation that carry...

As I read your comment, the following question came to mind-- If SierraFutures is clearing through Advantage, why not open an account with Advantage? In the future, I will be searching for a futures broker. So, that's why I am asking the question.

Not bad. If I were searching, I would definitely get it and upgrade the RAM and get a six port video card.

Another risk I had not considered... Tangent: I don't understand the Bitcoin craze. I have zero interest in trading or investing in it. Further, the fact that it has no underlying asset to determine its price makes it even less attractive. The only regrets I have about Bitcoin is that I...

As a someone who works in the tech sector, for a Silicon Valley-headquartered company, I have to say his request is no different than receiving a portion of my in RSUs or stock options. I don't see grounds for attacking him. Is there some risk? Sure. Is there some flaws in his reasoning? Yes...

That's it! I missed the meltdown of 2008. Stocks were dirt cheap, but I was dirt broke! I made more money buying and holding during COVID than I did trading futures. It's crazy. I caught stocks that were trading for a little more than a dollar, and now they are trading in the $10 - $12...

I don't know exactly. However, I reckon the flight time from a VPS in AWS to the exchange is significantly faster than the flight time from my desktop computer. Tangent: Flight time is important. However, unexpected outages and a lack of redundancy are equally, if not more, important. For...

Interesting. I didn't know that... Speaking of latency. I noticed that my cloud based servers has a ping response of less than a 1ms on the Internet. That's LAN-type speed. However, and perhaps, I don't have a complete view of AWS' infrastructure.

Unless you are an institution that uses HFT, the speed of execution isn't even an issue when it comes to retail algo trading. To answer you question, C++ is inherently faster than Python, so naturally, one would assume that it is faster when it comes to algo trading execution. The question is...

Yes, culture clashes exist when immigrant and indigenous cultures meet. However, your Judeo-Christian value system is chockfull of racists, scammers, degenerates, sexual deviants, and any other contemptible being I can think of. In my opinion, the evangelical right has a lot to be desired...

Understood...

I am not sure how the API works. However, as I look at the Python code, I don't see an explicit function call to tickPrice and tickSize. I see that an object is created from the class (i.e. app = TestApp()) that holds the functions. But I don't see you accessing the methods of app (i.e...

Absolutely. My goal is to get to South America before 55. I'm in my late 40's. I got into the trading game late, around four years ago. I had meager success, because I was under-capitalized. Then COVID-19 happened, which provided the perfect opportunity to liquidate my trading account and...

Despite that mistake, you are living far better than most people in your age group. The average American don't even begin thinking about retirement until around 50, which in my opinion is very late. But hey, "better late than never," right? Further, I was looking at a couple of YouTube clips...

Lol...do you work in IT? I ask, because that's what I say under my breath when end users waste my time and inundate me with simple questions.

YIKES!!!
