Website is built with NextJs. The models are all built with NodeJs--custom backtester framework, and the execution framework and data fetchers are also in Node and leverage a few open source libraries and currently only works with Interacti

Interesting, the figure does seem quite low to me. Boglehead passive investing has worked really well for the past dozen years. I expect the next 10-15 to be much more challenging given the extremely high starting valuations and end of the

My bot was in full time development for more than 3 months before I started trading live with it, I had traded manually previously for 15+ years, and I was highly confident the bot was better than me. Why not put money into it? The executio

I do have the habit of talking in plural form. The site was built by my wife and I together, but I built 100% of the models myself. I did work on this full time for over 2 years before recently starting a new job. Now, I've got the mod

Healthy skepticism is warranted and welcome of course! My account is currently at 1.4M. Taxes and living costs are taken out regularly. I'm not giving anyone access to the source of the models, only the output signals and trade history

Alphahub looks interesting, but their algorithms are quite different from mine. Theirs are picking individual stocks and sending out a signal at a regular frequency, every day, telling you what they think will be the best performing for tha

Definitely, that's why I have API access to signals as part of the Gold Plan. I think there are several ideal users: 1. Active investors who like to pick individual stocks and want to know when is a good time to hedge for beta for macr

I've thought about this a lot, and to answer 100% honestly, I'm not sure I always will, but for now: 1. These are not HFT models. They trade once every 2-4 weeks on average. They scale to billions in capital, so selling them does

One of the worst things I've noticed recently about Google Search is how it is very anti-startup because of the concept of the Google Sandbox, an essentially arbitrary length of time they put a huge negative penalty on your site to try

This looks cool, I signed up. I may have to employ this in my algotrading pipeline. I've collected historical data from 100s of different indicators and I'm currently using a largely heuristic approach with some light ML on subset

I would file as sole proprietor on schedule C. Write off all expenses, then you'll be taxed on excess profit at your ordinary income rate. Put most of the extra money into ETFs to save for retirement. It sounds like a lot of money now,

Comparing Rails to Express is not apples to apples. You should compare Rails to something like Next.js that has a lot of the magic and plumbing taken care of for you on both the front end and the back end. I agree that for side projects, un

Well that's a major cherry-pick. How about we use a neutral start point such as TWTR IPO date? Since Nov. 8, 2013, TWTR is up 16.8% and has paid 0 dividends. Meanwhile, SPX is up 162% since then, plus it has paid a dividend of an addit

I should have said it's a representative aristocracy for the shareholders, as when you do get a vote, your vote is obviously weighted by how many shares you have and not equally. However, whether you have 1 share or 100,000 shares of p

Neither is Facebook or Amazon. In fact, all three have already been moved from tech sector and into communications / consumer discretionary by economists. Google, Microsoft and Apple still qualify as tech for now.
