I tried my hand at algorithmic trading. It was an interesting experience because I have no experience with stocks, only trying it with digital currencies as a possible platform to eventually move to my portfolio. I found that the bot was ju

I think this is really cool. A trendy buzzword tech may bring more people to the polls, and the unforgable blockchain technology seems to have a use case here. I wonder how they prevent people from making multiple accounts. The fact that ge

You would be right if the stock prices actually 1:1 tracked business success. The reality is that they do not. The are an approximation of future growth, and that adds a great deal of uncertainty, sometimes enough to even make your anecdote

I am on a roll. This article plays this out like poor investor lost his money in a market downturn. My view is this; they are trading derivatives. This is known to be very risky. It just goes to show how a shiny education was hired, when in

I have not read the article but let met give a reality check. Innovation has stopped around Mysql 5.0 which supported binary logs and multi master replication. What features have actually been developed after this version that is useful? Js
