Now on deck: trading for realsies

Posted on February 20, 2021 by Enrique Garcia

In my previous post, I wrote about how I was paper trading using the picks my program made. Began in mid-December and currently ongoing, all four are currently in the green, with one of them having the luck of the Irish by picking up Novavax mere days before the price blew up. I don’t recall…

Small news update before the next big program update

Posted on February 4, 2021February 4, 2021 by Enrique Garcia

It’s been about a month since I’ve posted any updates on my program. Throughout this whole time, I’ve been paper trading with the picks my program makes, and so far with relatively good results. Every night, I download the day’s EOD pricing and then run my program through all the stocks (some stocks are eliminated…

Back on track, hopefully

Posted on January 5, 2021 by Enrique Garcia

Well, I’ve finally gotten my program back on track, it seems. The house’s breaker box is now in order and thanks to exposure to someone with Covid-19, I’m now self-quarantining until I get my test results back, giving me extra time to work on the program since I’m not able to go to my day…

More big delays

Posted on December 20, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

Just when I thought I was turning the corner, another major setback; the house I live in has been having electrical problems, which started out with annoying voltage drops (lights flickering, device brownouts), and eventually graduated to blown-out circuit breakers. I’m not sure if the breaker panel is just that old or what but the…

I should know better but I don’t

Posted on December 3, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

Just when I thought things had settled down, two more major changes are now underway. First, recent download problems of the price data have resulted in my being guided toward a better download solution, but one which will require me to once again rewrite a good portion of my download code. Hopefully this will be…

Has my program been saved already??

Posted on November 28, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

I may have been prematurely pessimistic in my post last night! It seems that the problem that was causing my inconsistent results wasn’t variable or adjusted settings, but rather a carry over from old code. Previously, I was analyzing prices as my info was populated, and now I populate my pricing data first, then analyze…

I spoke too soon!

Posted on November 27, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

It seems my questionable enthusiasm in my last post was warranted; after a whole week of live testing, I’ve encountered a major problem, one that’s seriously gumming up the works. I had begun working on a front-end for my program, one that would both output all the day’s buys and sells, as well as more…

So close, I can taste it!

Posted on November 21, 2020November 21, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

The endgame is nigh! Well, the first endgame, anyways. If you know programming/coding, then you know you’re never really finished, there will always be bugs to squish and code to optimize or functions to update. But the first major “release” of my program is so damn close, I can taste it 😀 BTW, I’m not…

That thing where real life gets in the way

Posted on November 15, 2020November 15, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

So I’ve neglected my duties of conquering the stock market with my little project. Since around mid-October, I’ve been having some long-overdue dental work done. Long story short, I need a lot of work done, which is being spread out over the next 2-3 months. Because of this, I’ve fallen behind on my project as…

The neverending process of programming something

Posted on October 22, 2020 by Enrique Garcia

The struggle continues! Despite my previously posted hope that I’d be trading soon (at the very least, paper trading), things have continued to pop up that need dealing with. At first the issue was that I kept adding or changing things to make them better and more efficient. As I was adding more and more…
