Quant Trading Live Report

More benefits of easy data manipulation with Chart Director in Python

Details here of the course

I now show the various time frames you can use to roll back easily to generate new charts. This is much easier than open source Python packages like Seaborn and Matplotlib. Check this out.

I do a nerdy source code review of once of the easiest way to generate trading charts with date manipulateion

Best tip to build Cyrpto currency or Bitcoin trading bot and why for free

I explain the reason why Bitcoin is huge with the black box bots out there. Why go down that path? Build your own. Control your future where you control the source code to.

Start with and stick with Python. It is true open source!

Black box technology is expensive and break over time. This stuff is usually meant for fools looking for gold via quick rich schemes. I call them suckers.

Then there are those scams like Initial Coin Offerings that need to be regulated. There are these moronic frat boys trying to make buck off you. They have no souls! No Concious! I would hope their mommies would lock them in the basement and chuck the key away. Essentially they only see the daylight when they need to by scamming you when Mom cuts them off from their weekly allowance.

You should have not spend a nickel on anything other than your time.  So let me introduce you to a simpler way that will only cost you your time and focus. This is the only way I know how to make dollar in the markets including Crypto currency. The other choice is to be a gullible sucker. Oh mommy would be so proud of you. Nor don't listen to dumb cousin Johnny for tips to make it in the markets. Again, especially those crypto tips because of all the scams out there.

So let 's get this straight. Use this free/open source Python package called ccxt. It is right here,  

Seriously stick with Python and nothing else. Yeh I do take the heat for dissing Javascript and even PHP somewhat. Don't know these lweb programming languages?  That is good to know so just focus on Python. OK? Just watch the video to save you some headaches OK?

Remember this is the first draft of this:

Sub-title - Discover the secrets behind trading infrastructure components, high speed in-memory NOSQL database options, cryptocurrency exchanges and simple technical indicators, and more. And use the same techniques in your Python code.

AUTHOR NAME - Bryan Downing

Infrastructure modern component implementation fo an algo trading system

Basic coverage of crypto currency Python packages and crypto currency exchanges

Technical analysis library package use for strategy idea development

Videos and sample Python source code scripts are made available at time of presentation. Note that scripts are meant to to be small and simple for easiest consumption. Advanced techniques are stripped out to ensure completion of this course. This can be used as a launching to pad to understand the components of a primitive algo trading system In short, it is devised in a way to get you up and running as quickly as possible.

Complete detailed trading analysis for Mar 15 16 with Bitcoin

Here I put together a 2 + hour video to focus on REAL WORLD market deep dive analysis. I cover asset classes including commodity (with Bitcoin), forex, and equity of indices/ETF. I go through all instruments covered to show breadth of how diverse these are. There are a total of nearly 100 instruments to watch. List of instruments here

Is quant and machine learning useful after the test? I made a 35 minute video to showcase my latest results of this forex trading strategy. It uses the combo indicators of moving average cross, statistic number of positive daily returns, and trend. This combo of indicators can be helpful as explained in the video.

It seems that there is a heavy reliance on these for ‘bottoming’ process or testing of flat lining for breakout potential.

I tried to simulate someone like NicTrades later in my video to showcase potential moves with lower trending currency pairs. In short, it seems everything is about perfect timing. You would use all the mentioned indicators as a set of tools to measure timing and historical value of the price. The idea is obviously to capture breakout opportunities for escape volatility return.

It is time to get into the mind of an institutional pro to see how they decide and filter out the trading opportunities. So the struggle continues….. I find NicTrade is a good analyst to watch to see how it is done.

Some will say the fundamentals are not useful. For instance, you could use central bank guidance and trading/econometrics forward looking date to get currency bias on certain countries. I have many scripts ready to overlay. I just need to get a predictable methodology using the technical analysis.

Some may argue that quant and machine learning techniques may help in this area. I agree but when you do not have a solid foundation, you will even harder times to forecast the markets. I really don’t want to go down these paths of quant or ML is much harder to figure out.
