for backtesting - zipline reloaded - is event based. It is very slow for optimization.
vectorbt - vector optimization - optimize the parameters. optimize - entry and exit parameters, number of ticks. useful for single-asset or spread strategies (i.e. refiner crack spread).
make more $.
The initial primary key setup is important. As this sets up the search parameters.
It's not just 'quiet quitting'. Austin defunded their police force by 30%. Morale dropped significantly and there is now a shortage of police.
After-all, who wants to work in a city where they are not wanted and actively hated.
Homicide is up 70% and violent crime is up. Police response times are 30% longer.
Just an FYI... housing prices are expected to drop 12% in the near term.
And what about basic necessities like food? China can only meet 65% of it’s food needs.
China is completely vulnerable and dependent on the west, in a way that Russia is not.

Even our poor people have cars.
We all benefit and even our pets have a higher quality of life than most people in the third world.
Comparison Shopping. ex. safest small suvs.
Yard landscaping - ex. with yard size of 30 feet by 22 feet, how many cubic feet of mulch, do I need at 4 inch depth.
Buy cars in cities. Sell in rural areas.
US crypto exchanges vs African crypto exchanges.
Import/Export - ex import swimwear from Colombia. Sell in the US.
buy clearance after holiday items from box retailers, sell on amazon.
Most companies I've worked for, using R&D credits. Have a timesheet tracker... tracking actual hours of R&D work. That sounds more critical now.
And authoritarians running roughshod over us all…
regardless of effectiveness and outright harm by their ‘solutions’.
We are just moving up the abstraction hierarchy.
Can you imagine assembly coders and their fears of C making them obsolete.
There is no end to the demand for software. And the demand for smart and competent ppl to create solutions. With the tools at hand.
Move along folks, nothing to see here ;)
It’s always productive people that have to pay more to government. For less.
And government has zero accountability. Zero motivation to use our money efficiently. 600+ foreign military bases… $200 hammers…
Justify more government wastefulness… before taking my earned money.
Parents are tired of these educators not teaching the basics. And indoctrinating their kids.
I finally hit pay dirt by just joining a startup with VC funding. And it only took 4 years to get a payoff. My recommendation, for the best odds of success. Join an existing startup with equity.. at least 1%. You want to be an owner. A capitalist. It is vital to have equity. If you're going to work... work at a company with equity.
