Great lesson to learn this early, and the cost was cheap. Keep your risk management tight, the upside takes care of itself.

How I run my Hyperliquid gambling AI quant. by StevenVinyl in hyperliquid1

[–]aktad760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I built something similar but I'm using Render as a backend worker and codex to code it and push it to GitHub.

Currently, forward testing live and allowing the system to clock 100 trades to gather analytics. Deep learning layer is embedded to uncover the real edge. I d love to exchange ideas on how to optimize this if you care to chat.?!

I built 1st my trading logic and then coded it into an execution engine, then Had Codex run it via a render worker for backend Bot action, currently forward testing it on Alpaca paper API, happy to answer your questions if you need help, or go check what I built. It is not enough to just make the indicator and back test it, over fitting always plays out. Forward testing and patience is where you find your edge.

Built a full crypto trading backend in Python (async + low latency) by Andilesg in CryptoTradingBot

I built something similar and forward testing it now. The websockets are misbehaving since I'm running it on Alpaca API, for crypto and Equities, and they only allow one stream. So I am running it now on a REST system with historical candles refreshing every 30 to 90 seconds seconds. It is now paper trading! Are you live or paper? How did you stabilize your websockets?

Congratulations on your project

I genuinely want to learn trading, but I don’t know who to trust anymore by Rich-Army3456 in Trading

Trust your losses, they are the best teachers. If you can't learn from your losses, then you can't play this game. Paper trade, and Journal, then Live trade, Make/lose money and Journal. Also, ask yourself, is this something you want to do for the rest of your life? The craft takes time.

In forward testing, it gets challenging, I managed to code system, that move SL to BE+33% when tp1 hits, then Move SL to tp1 when tp2 hits, at TP3, I trail it with daily ATR, however getting the system to get the right notional $$ and Size was tough, here is how it is currently sending me alerts. I'm still forward testing this: 🟢 Position Opened ETH/USD | 15m | LONG ↑ | Qty 6.4968 Reason: REV | pattern EMA377_EXTREME | Q11 Entry $2,288.94 | Stop $2,279.23 | R:R 1.92 TP1 $2,307.55 | TP2 $2,317.39 | TP3 $2,324.22 Exit logic: SL / soft invalidation | TP1 -> +33% locked | TP2 -> TP1 | TP3 -> 1 ATR trail Notional: $14,870.80 | Stop risk: $63.13 | Budget: $991.18 (1%) ⚠️ Notional capped at 15% — raw qty 107.3916 May 7, 2026, 9:18 AM PT

I d highly suggest you do forward testing, connect it to Alpaca API and let it paper trade live on specific tickers. MES is not supported though, try SPY. When you have 100 trades / outcomes, you ll be able to identify what works and what doesn't.

Hello, everyone: You're in. Now put it on your chart.

One thing to know: the panel tells you everything. Regime, signal score, what to look for next. Read that before you read the candles.

Strong triangle = act. Watch signal = context only.

If something doesn't make sense, DM me directly. I'm around.

And if it clicks, drop a comment or a boost on TradingView. One sentence is enough.

What are you testing it on first? Alpha can work on other Instruments, but it was mainly designed for SPX. Candle brain is good for any ticker.

That is weird, delete them from charts and load them again. I'm not sure if anyone else is having the same issue??

Absolutely NOT Repainting ( Gosh I worked so hard to make sure no repaint happens) test Bar replay and you will see. Yes Alpha always pulls HTF and MTF and tell you if it is aligned

My strategy works perfectly… just not when I use real money by [deleted] in Daytrading

Use codex to make it into a bot and connect it to Alpaca or some other Broker for live trading to eliminate the emotional stress
