More importantly for most of the members of HN, is this worth my time at all? If markets are inherently interesting to you and you want to spend (a lot of) time studying them, then great: go for it. If you are looking to slowly invest over the long-term, then just buy sporadically and hold. Otherwise, you are probably better off investing your time and money building something yourself, for reasons that completely ignore whether or not you are capable of doing well as a trader.
