micro-updates on what I keep myself busy with right now. normally belongs to social media but fuck social media.

  • developing building blocks of strategies: the definitions of range, trending leg, liquidity pool

    —

    — ,
    • building tools: is/oos testing + walk-forward analysis
    • incorporating historical databento data
    • seeking alpha

    —

    — ,

  • developing backengine: for now various tooling, while trying to have a simple 5m engulfing candle scalping strategy work

    —

    — ,
    • building a Claude + Alpaca environment to test, refine, and deploy options trading strategies
    • possibly expanding into futures algo trading
    • feeling like a boy with a new toy

    —

    — ,
    • can now trade options and simplest swing trades with Claude
    • day trading futures still better manually

    —

    — ,
    • finishing up an article. wrestling with graphics and diagrams — my least favorite part of it.
    • wondering how the markets are going to open for globex tonight. after friday’s almost 5% drop, nasdaq will either chop the whole monday (minor chance) or pull an even bigger drop (historical data).

    —

  • wondering if I need to get myself another custom 65% keyb. nah, I probably don’t.

    —

  • planning 24y anniversary dinner with Yulka. can’t believe we’ve been together that long. time is an illusion. ready to tolerate a restaurant for her.

    —

    • writing an ai project instructions to improve my article review process
    • adjusting position sizing for the trading algo, reshuffling accounts
    • wondering if I should take my guitar in for a service since I can’t for the life of me figure out why my new Seymour Duncan JB/Jazz Rails set does not work in the middle position
