Am also curious what kind of leverage you are applying have to make your returns, relative capital swings, how many trades you're making a day per instrument etc. Are you 'picking up pennies in front of a steam roller' or effectively maximizing larger intraday (or multiday?) market swings, etc?
When I first started training my strategies, I used a local desktop. Once I had the training process developed, I started to scale out to r5.8Xlarge boxes. These boxes provided the right mix of memory and compute power needed.
I am running the machine learning on Linux boxes, and execution engine runs on a windows box. I coded the executed engine in C# and the machine learning system believe or not is written in PHP.
Since I am trading predominately micro futures so far, each strategy is allowed to open 1 contract. I have an even number of long/short strategies so it typically doesn't get too extended in any one direction. However, there have been times where it has fairly large net long or short position.
Depends on the day, but each instrument is making around 10 to 20 trades a day right now (this will come down as volatility comes down). The expectancy per trade across all instruments is roughly .25%.
Do an export of your algorithm's live trades and let us judge. Otherwise I think we'll just have to assume this is larping.
Judge what?
Don't get me wrong I 100% wish I was in this guys shoes. But these numbers don't seem that crazy. He generated sub 20k one month on the day trading part using an 800k account. Sure, I realize some of that was tied up in swing trading.... but swing trading micro's with that kind of account balance adds an even bigger edge to being able to survive the debit phase and end up in the credit side. So, that's almost a net neutral factor, outside of tying up some of the capital.
Not saying he is or isn't doing these numbers, just saying they don't seem anything close to crazy. Think about it that's averaging less than $1k a day on the day trading part, judging by your post and results, I imagine you could / you already do that easily. Maybe the impressive or questionable part is that it's 100% fully automated and runs itself with virtually no down time?
Whether you are larping or not.
No, it's not crazy at all. Perfectly reasonable in this volatility.
But he doesn't want to share any information on his approach, so let's see the signals.
A larper is someone who fakes a disorder for attention or to be cool/quirky. Dude loren is such a larper, smh she tells everyone she has BPD when she doesn't ...
