Not really for an automatic trading algorithm. Write once, use for quite a while. Say a week of work (40 hours) for returns say 1/10th of holding is still quite worth it. Both of those numbers are quite conservative.

Depending on the automated strategy, they can dramatically reduce risk though. That has value well beyond the simple return of buy and hold, where if you don't time the sell perfectly, it's all useless. I think that's the big

Yeah, good catch, I didn't consider that. But still, what type of algorithm will see such an increase in number of requests during the crash times but not during any others? Based on what I've seen, the number of requests needed t

The learning method is really quite naive, I'll put it that way. The algorithm I chose is designed to be risk averse and crash resistant. The learning method and algorithm are orthogonal/separate, and what learning you pair with w

Personally, I'm not fully, though I'm sure there are methods. Realistically, right now the naive solution is working just fine, which is just identifying market trends. Because so much is bots, it inherently learns the trends of b

The GDAX API has a pretty low rate limit. The bots should be running 24/7, so the "cause" depends on your point of view I guess: if the increased human traffic is what kills the service, or if the existence of the constant bo

As someone using machine learning to identify the patterns of bots on GDAX and riding the waves accordingly, I can say this is certainly happening. It's not just one bot though. There is huge money right now in crypto markets, both ill

Autocorrect is a huge feature for most users, myself included. I have bad typing, and it's often much faster than looking something up in the dictionary. For every miscorrect it get's dozens right.

Yeah, all of that's fair. I would do the same as you, but my old one was on its last legs. In the end, I spent $150 on adapters and have been good to go on my personal setup since, traveling and at home. I'm sure this is a lot big

True, but that worse processor and -2 USB-C ports that I would never use thanks to having to have a hub anyways saves $500. Enough to upgrade the processor to an i7. > Plus it's still a little more expensive than the previous base m

Ethereum: - June 13th: $380 - July 17th: $185 - August 31st: $389 - December 16th: $700+ 50% or more swings are all too common. I doubt this is the end. While I would love to see the crash happen sooner than later, I think the percentage of

You don't have to get the touch bar, FYI. Most CS people I know opt to go without it and miss pretty much nothing. I agree with the pain of USB-C, but one hub for home and one mobile adapter can solve all that. It's not as bad as

The split value is in theory but didn't seem to follow in practice. Anyone can create a fork, and the market will not be that efficient, even in the long run. I don't think the metaphor works for that reason. Simply, forking makes

Future actions do not excuse past ones. A right and a wrong don't cancel out, they both exist. I have noticed small improvements with the introduction of tipping and I'm sure it will get better, but that's not very hard to do

The problem with easy replace is what a lot of old phones had - a drop and the battery comes flying out too. Obviously, this has gotten a lot better since then, but I think there is an advantage in design for daily use for not having batter

This highlights something incredibly important. There's a very stark age line in people using touch screens by default. I TA an intro CS course, and I've noticed the line creep. It's somewhere between those born in 1998 and 2
