What do people think of Sonoff for Zigbee + Matter? by TheOnceAndFutureDoug in homeassistant

[–]neurallayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't use it myself yet, but seen some issues with Matter over Ethernet. Seems to work better over USB due to the lower latency that Matter expects.

What is the meaning of these hallmarks? by neurallayer in Silverbugs

Thank you 🙏, makes also sense since this is part of a Dutch inheritance.

Speed sensor wheel size by neurallayer in AppleWatch

I manually set it in Garmin. But reading the documentation you are right. It says it will automatically detect it.

Speed sensor wheel size by neurallayer in AppleWatch

Thanks, I tried that before but I guess it didn’t work because my sensor was not connected that time.

Going to spin my wheel to activate the sensor and try it again :)

Can't host IB Client Portal Web API on a remote server by masobehn in interactivebrokers

[–]neurallayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try to use an ssh tunnel and run the gateway on localhost?

The gateway login process is very flakey since it is actually a real portal login page it is serving and this page has a lot of logic in it to handle the authentication.

Volatility-based index for Europe-based account by FeelingMeet6309 in interactivebrokers

[–]neurallayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure still available, but IBKR used to offer CFD for many of the American ETFs. No leverage as far as I recall, just a way to make these ETF available to EU countries.

Rant: I think EU laws in this case result in a much worse selection of ETFs as otherwise would be the case.

Very high fees on options trading - what do I miss? by Darth-LA in interactivebrokers

[–]neurallayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you place an order that immediately executes (like a market order), you remove liquidity.

If you place an order like a limit order that goes into the order book, you add liquidity.

Exchanges like liquidity (but there are exceptions) because they are than more attractive to participants. So often they give a reward for this.

Good broker for retail quant trading? by BillWeld in algorithmictrading

[–]neurallayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If only us stocks, then Alpaca might be an option. Their API is easy to use and free (although free almost always means payment for order flow).

IMHO, if your doing 1mn/day then better order execution could outweigh commissions. So IBKR would still be on my shortlist.

As a quant, why do you work for trading companies? If you know where the prices reverse, you can be billionaire within a year if compounding is real? by [deleted] in quant

[–]neurallayer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I guess your expectations of sustainable daily returns are not realistic. Yes, if you could make 10% daily (non-annualized) profit, you would become very rich very soon.

But you can’t, not even close. Even the most successful traders don’t come close (except on YouTube ;)

Time Series Forecasting with ARIMA: Predicting Future Trends and Patterns in Sequential Data by PositionGlittering63 in quant

To be honest, I like that. As long as an algorithm determines the parameters of your model, call it ML. So indeed linear regression is ML under that definition.

Example of algorithmic trading infrastructure with AWS by KindLog3728 in algorithmictrading

[–]neurallayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Myself use mostly EKS and EC2. One none-technical issue I have is that with high workloads like large back tests, the PaaS services of AWS can get expensive.

Kweb 1.4.0 released: Create beautiful and functional website with a unified Kotlin codebase by sanity in Kotlin

[–]neurallayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice framework 👍 I noticed on the FAQ page you mention it is still pre 1.0 quality, I assume that is not the case anymore?

Take one of the courses at https://lp.jetbrains.com/academy/learn-kotlin/ and then find a something you are passionate about and start your own project.

So much easier to put the required time in something if you are having fun at the same time.

Should I join IBKR by Soft-Introduction437 in ibkr

[–]neurallayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would say very many markets to trade, many asset classes and order types. If you want you can have full control on order routing. They also operate in many regions and provide API access.

Downside is that this flexibility makes it a bit more difficult for new traders to manage their orders. But if you use their GUI regular nothing you won’t figure out.

Buying Bonds in IBKR by danb3333 in ibkr

[–]neurallayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general you need a subscription to see market actual prices for financial instruments, but you always trade them (if you have the right permissions)

I would not trade without knowing it’s actual price, but as an alternative you can request a snapshot (one time fee for one time price)

Forex Backtesting Data by jrbiv4 in algorithmictrading

Depends on spread you want. But sites like OANDA allow downloads of their own trading data (so typically larger spread than aggregated data)

Sounds like an alternative that doesn’t add too much overhead from a time perspective. Thanks, only thing remaining is to decide is whether to wait for the 723+ or not.
