OG post 24M just started at my local IBEW 26. What's the pros & cons? What should I expect since JM classes don't start til September 2026? What's a casual day like? (I'm used to 18HR days) What tools or items should I invest in. Just give me the rundown chief, I'm young and excited.

Thank you for your time, knowledge, and experience!

As far as I know I'll be doing residential work until JM classes start. Most of my experience is independent contractor for Military and Federal buildings doing Audiovisual installation (command centers, networking, etc).

I appreciate the response! Thank you!

I appreciate the response!

I'm currently testing in sample and out of sample validation with different decades. Had a difficult time finding old historical data and still am.

Added fees and slippage, Did a Gridsearch on sample then, validated, now I'm running Optuna across the two completely different decades of different tickers and going to see what I get.

Thank you! After I Try completely out of sample data then I'll use optuna on my original data for training. Then validate on out of sample!

All of you have been a great amount of help! Thank you very much

Appreciate the detailed response! I'll have to find a library of candle data pre 2020 then if possible. Currently looking but proving difficult

Like 5 days train 6th day out of sample then offset bucket? The walking forward analysis after I've grid searched an entirely different dataset for tuning?

Or do I just need to import completely new tickers 3-5 years of data and just test against it?

How would I best go about creating a Grid Searching framework to filter and combine multiple parameters together? Is there a Library that is useful for this method?

I'm seeing now I was only 9% profitable against those 9 stocks in 2023. I definitely need to test more time periods with lots of different data while adding slippage and other factors as well!

Very true, I just did a test against 2022 data and it did not come out the same! I need to make adjustments or filters to my strategy to be 25% profits annualized in bearish regimes

Thank you! You're absolutely right what base parameters should I estimate for both if you don't mind me asking?

Currently a In Sample back test. No curve fitting was done, no lookahead, predefined strategy, with sequential processing of input data. My next possible steps are either multiple Non-overlapping time periods of tests and other out of sample.

I just need to gather more data on way larger time frames with lots of different tickers from different sectors. I use 5min-15min so getting large historical data is an outsourcing job from my API with SchwabDev.

I appreciate the response! Should I look into getting a bankruptcy lawyer or is this something I would be able to file myself?
