    think or swim problems

    TD is a marketing company. They don't give a f*ck about the individual. And when I say "they" I mean top management. It's just a numbers game to those people.

    I just upgraded from win 7 to Win 10 on my 5 yr old dell laptop a few days ago . No probs. Takes a few hours though.

    Machine Learning is the new C++

    Finished the ML Coursera course which was good. Been watching/reading a lot of stuff on Deep Learning. Apparently it is necessary to have a powerful computer system as most of the neural network algorithms involve a lot of matrix calculations and are best handled by multiple GPU's. this can be...

    NYSE to eliminate "stop orders"

    Yes cancel them because the poor retail babies don't know how they work. Boo Hoo. http://www.cnbc.com/2015/11/18/why-will-the-nyse-stop-accepting-stop-orders.html Oh, and apparently "professionals" don't use stop orders! What a farce! LOL

    Typical useful life of your trading laptop

    Yes I disagree. It seems to be a common misconception that you can suck it out. But you can't. In fact I read you can sometimes damage the fins of the fan by trying to suck it out. fwiw anyways..Cheers!

    Typical useful life of your trading laptop

    You have to physically disassemble the laptop to get at the dust buildup. A vaccum won't help. It's a strip of lint which inhibits air flow. http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/laptop/how-clean-laptop-fan-3417484/

    Typical useful life of your trading laptop

    crack it open and clean the dust out of the fan.Problem solved. You can look up on Youtube how to do it. Pretty simple really. I've had an old Dell 17" laptop sitting under my desk running a 24 in monitor for five years without a problem, other than cleaning out the fan lint. At one point I...

    Any machine learning trading system with adaptive parameters?

    I can't see how historical data would have any value in determining real time correlations between various parameters intraday. Seems like this would be a problem for Deep Learning/Unsupervised Learning. You don't know which correlations are working intra day, but you need the algorithm to...

    Any machine learning trading system with adaptive parameters?

    So would your model be training itself on a training data set created in real time to determine correlations that are effecting the market in real time? Then using those correlations to make trades on your test set? Sounds like a tall order.

    Any machine learning trading system with adaptive parameters?

    I think the problem is the parameters that matter each day change. I don't see how you could code for this.

    Machine Learning is the new C++

    Well about half way through my ML Coursera course. It would seem all the attention is on Deep Learning through Convolutional Neural Networks that were popularized by Hinton from UofToronto. When it was used to win a image classification challenge in 2012 and crushed the previous best result by a...

    Machine Learning is the new C++

    Interesting. I don't really see myself using ML for trading, but rather, for other unrelated problem solving.

    Machine Learning is the new C++

    OK I got sucked into this "fad" and started the machine learning course from Coursera. I'm also watching a ton of stuff on Youtube as well. It's all really fascinating. Seems very interesting, but it sure looks like everyone and there dog is jumping into this space. the number of "analysts"...
