There's a guy on youtube that already does this shit. You didn't have to code it yourself.

if someone is good at day trading, why do you think they're gonna spend their time making stupid ass youtube videos to teach the masses their strategies and secrets?

you don't own the code you have not at least instructed to be generated yourself. you would not know what to do with someone else's project. a dumb fucking retard like you would probably just ask claude to make him money.

you also need actual data for confirming results instead of blindly trusting faggots selling their courses and to optimize the params.

the project was not a waste but I don't know where to pick up better trade ideas if this one has no value. I feel like the Buffet fags were right and nothing beats buy-and-hold in the age of AI

$200 and a weekend is a pretty good deal to avoid losing a lot of money from a bad strategy

Trading is an activity for fools.

Honestly? Yes.
You're competing with math wizards that work on strategies for years and still mostly get modest returns if any at all. The ones the hit it big will never share what worked for them and you can be certain it took them way more than a weekend and $200 worth of data.
Just buy and hold.

I recently ran a bunch of tests on huge datasets too on every strategy I've experimented with that I thought was good, and none of them produce any meaningful profit. These are systems I've traded with and not some youtube/course slop that I thought gave an edge.

All trading systems are a scam. The only real edge that exists is in the execution of the human trader that depends on things the system can't automatically detect, which is impossible to define and test for.
