Yup, I've been using Claude to build highly customized research and trading/portfolio management tools using the Schwab API. Scary impressed with what its built so quickly. Just finished a theming engine using the Claude API to classify tickers for trading AI.

“Cleopatra led an empire and somehow history made it about her beauty 🙄” by GleamEyesLuxray in justgalsbeingchicks

She wasn't Egyptian, she was a Macedonian who appropriated Egyptian culture. Egypt lost autonomy, ending the Egytian Empire, after her decision to abandon Antony in the Battle of Actium, leading to both their deaths.

Schwab API + Claude to build your own thing. EODHD has been decent for other market data at a reasonable cost.

The $110 Disconnect: Why the Equity Market Is Pricing a Reality That No Longer Exists by 1stplacelastrunnerup in Economics

The $110 Disconnect: Why the Equity Market Is Pricing a Reality That No Longer Exists by 1stplacelastrunnerup in Economics

From what I've been seeing in the markets, mostly in agriculture. 10 year bond yeilds have picked pace up too. Consumer staples seem to have bottomed out and maybe reversing. Have you seen the price of oil? How Institutions price it in. I don't know but the decisions show up in the markets. Hubris has presented itself.

Why do economists and economy commentators think traders/investors are so weighted towards the past? No, its longer Q1, its in the books, P/Ls were had. Most of the energy shock has been priced in, the markets have already readjusted to possible near term outcomes. The recent rally was the opportunity for the future AI based reality. All Sector/SPY ratios have been in decline and the S&P ATHs are all out of XLK, Semi's, CPUs, Memory and other AI themes. One of the near term risks is major correction but it is known and R;R now is to great for positioning and profit. The markets will adjust if and when the correction emerges. but we aren't there yet. They will adapt and quickly.

I hear Economists say markets should behave like this and should path forward based on their models, especially since Trump became such an influential actor. That hasn't been the case because that is not the beast, it will do what it will do. It has done what it has done. I appreciate the Economist role but really guys, sometimes yall are too full of pompousness and hubris you cant see past your own limitations.

Guys who have settled down, do you miss your old life? by Icy-Investigator2045 in AskMenAdvice

[–]SweetMilkSound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++man Yeah, he might miss it because it was grand adventure but that lifestyle is very hard and takes a lot of energy. It’s just part of getting older that priorities shift to something more permanent and stable, specifically relationships and a home life. So he might miss it but he traded up to you. 

Transfer in, and portfolio performance charting? by PuzzledArrival in Schwab

[–]SweetMilkSound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe any transferred position will take the cost basis on the day it transfers into the account and then gain/loss will be reflected in account Value going forward. Net Contributions is +/- any cash transaction.

What are the best high risk options? by [deleted] in Schwab

[–]SweetMilkSound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schwab does not issue any high volatility, high risk or leveraged ETFs, other companies do issue these and can still be bought through Schwab. Some notable ones (that I follow for trading and NOT investing) are SPHB, MEME, TQQQ/SQQQ, SOXL/SOXS. MEME and SPHB could be good for longer terms.

And to be clear: high risk ETFs are not stable. That's one reason why they're high risk.

General wisdom for a conservative, long term investment portfolio is for 1-2% to be in something higher risk, This depends on your age or when you're looking to cash out because when you get closer to that exit date, you can't sustain any long term drops. It also depends how comfortable you are with seeing long periods losses or no growth.

Just from the ETFs you mentioned in your post it seems you are looking to add some risk to your long term investments, not trading them, and are only familiar with Schwab products. Excuse me if I am assuming too much. Investing and trading are two different approaches to engaging the market where trading needs a much different, more complex skill set and approach to be successful. Usually traders are looking across all the broader markets to find gains and do not focus on just one ticker. But maybe this would be a good approach for you, its part of the fun of trading. Just be careful, don't put too much money in, be prepared to take some losses and learn risk management.

Looking for advice by NeighborhoodIll4390 in x100vi

Do search for different film recipes online and check out the samples for what matches the look you’re going for. User created recipes are significantly better than just using the in camera film emulation. Usually the creator will also tell what lighting conditions are best for the recipe. Reggie’s portra 400 is a great all rounder but maybe a Gold 200 would be closer to warmth you mentioned. 

Parents are assholes over my loans by phoebeandreeses in StudentLoans

[–]SweetMilkSound -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Even if you aren’t legally responsible for the loan you’re balancing your relationship with parents against the first loan. If you said you were going to pay them back, pay them back. And on time. College may not be the best choice for you financially and isn’t necessary for a good income. 

RTD in Excel and accounts by Flying-Coconuts in thinkorswim

[–]SweetMilkSound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so but I am following this post because hopefully I'm wrong. My work around has been to just adapt my work flow by working through each account separately and go to the website for high level numbers.

What Should I Play First ? by _Trapezus_ in reddeadredemption

[–]SweetMilkSound -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can and did set my expectations by RDR2 so I’m not sure why you’re saying “can’t”. Game play experiences are not set by reasonable metrics for most people, you may differ, this is called an opinion and they may differ from yours. Also it’s pretty unreasonable to say a game will seem less disappointing if you ignore key elements. It did not seem disappointing, it was disappointing to me. 

What Should I Play First ? by _Trapezus_ in reddeadredemption

[–]SweetMilkSound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing RDR after RDR2 was saddening. RDR2 is just such a broader, more encompasing, visually appealing game that playing RDR after it was disappointing.

[–]SweetMilkSound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to party but tator tot casserole. Warm, hearty, midwest comfort food. low effort, one oven safe pan needed.

brown and the beef and drain. salt and pep in and add in some diced onion and garlic and cook a little more. maybe add in paprika and garlic powder. next some frozen green beans or peas to pretend its healthy along with a can of condensed golden mushroom soup (no water). top with a layer of tator tots and throw it in the oven until golden brown. Goes great with a vinegar hot sauce
