Not probable, but possible. More likely lose his shirt and pants within 5 years.

Greed kills!

Actually, any business. Arithmetic and proper execution can go a long way.

I’ve actually heard that from tech industry vets. I also forgot to mention, that before I hired out that project, I knew exactly what I needed to execute. The coder recommended Java for the IB connector. I’ve spent countless hours, prototyping, researching, and testing. Those days are over. I...

To answer the OP question, Easylanguage is a pascal derived procedural language, but it is compiled and it’s blocks and libraries are written in C++. It’s very capable for mid-high latency testing/execution, just horrible for complex quant/portfolio analysis. Event driven backtesting is a whole...

So what? FB breaks out of a price channel every day. Just adjust the timeframe.

Nooby. That’s possible and a personal preference, and in many cases necessary, depending on the complexity. I’ll add dependencies if absolutely necessary. If you’re dealing with IB only, look no further than Java. I’ve recently commissioned a software engineer to build me a custom standalone IB...

Interpreted language with single-threaded architecture. That’s be my guess :)

Yes, you will trade ZERO times

You need to be clever in the way you fragment and analyze the ATR, and how you size/leverage the trades within that model. Daytrading (legally) is no place for a slouch. If you're looking for a chart to tell you something, find another hobby. Context is fine, but structure and rules are still...

Right about now, I'm questioning the futility of endeavors/statuses society attaches meaning to. Lately, I've been posting here, for the sake of posting. This overconsumption of technology doesn't feel healthy. I'll try to permanently retire out of here (again) and hit the waves for a few weeks...

I read it like 100 years ago. It was pretty stimulating at the time. I like "The Logical Trader" by Mark Fisher, and feel it could provide a good statistical foundation for coming up with strategy ideas.

When you're out of money

Where can I sign up?

Uber driver sounds fun. You can possibly live in your car too.

That would be fine if he's playing with monopoly money, but if he plans on allocating real capital anytime soon, my advice would be to leverage third-party solutions until he builds up his stake, at which point he can experiment with custom tools.

ES If it makes you feel any better, I just lost 3k within 10 minutes. Hopefully in some form, you're counterparty to that. Good luck:fistbump:

I'm grateful to live in an era that allows me to automate. Nowadays, I get ZERO thrills from watching price fluctuations. If I traded during the pre-algo era, it's doubtful I would have tolerated the pit trading environment, and cesspool of human filth within it. Life is too short :)

No "safe spaces" or TLC in the trading arena :)

You’re not very good at interpreting humor, No??
