Hey everyone! This is a collection of my investment modules - strategies codified from my experience in quantitative investing and software development. All categorized into a short menu. These models (algo-investors as I call them) serve different purposes, some just remove the stress and emotion of maintaining a portfolio (automated rebalancing, etc), some seek to capitalize on binary events (like elections or regulation changes), some seek to minimize volatility, some seek to "beat the market" (leveraged modules, hedge fund trackers), and some are just fun (wallstreetsbets sentiment tracker). These results DO account for slippage, and many are showing actual live results (not just backtests). This is a highly regulated environment (I'm US-based), so you can't deposit your money in these, but I've been using them myself for a few years. Cheers

Cool! Would be interesting to move around on the charts. Curious how these did in 2020 specifically.

  Nice to keep in mind!

If you don't mind me asking: what % of your portfolio do you keep in these yourself? Curious how much you trust them ;)

  I tend to be on the riskier side, so if it isn't in my 401k it's in these ;). I do keep some cash for emergencies and stock from my company too! 1 in particular (the Double Leveraged In & Out) has quantitative papers written about it with backtests of its performance all the way to 1928! Like all risky investing, I only invest what I can afford to lose here. Hope that helps!

Hey, you might remember me from earlier. I posted some feedback on your startup the last time I suppose and I found it as I was going though my old comments. I just wanted to check up on how the startup is coming along. I'm still in the waitlist for now since I just signed up for the platform, is there any demo I could look at in regards to how this platform going to work?
