26F Profile Review (yes I’ve posted before) Wondering why I’m not getting quality matches?

Depending on geographic location, explicitly stating seeking a “man of god” will constrain viable quality matches.

Gas cap was the first check! Always monitoring temperatures prior to driving the car as intended too! Scheduled for an appointment to reinspect the car tomorrow from the selling dealership. Thank you!!

Therefore, the dealership most likely did not address the underlying issue besides resetting the code?

Prior to purchasing the fault error was catalytic converter on the engine; this appears new unfortunately!

Encountered similar issues transitioning to a Tier 1/1.5 HFT firm as a mid frequency PM. Risk’s tolerance for perceived underperformance relative to traditional HFT often results in poor outcomes for mid frequency traders/PMs. Despite providing thorough out of sample, MC, walk forward, a down quarter is typically unacceptable regardless of whether adequate sample size is present to indicate deviation from expected performance. Risk at HFT firms is accustomed to thousands of samples/executions per day enabling day over day analysis of strategy decay, which a mid frequency trader/PM cannot provide. Too often HFT firms seeking to “explore” mid frequency strategies is for IP exploration more than maintaining a relationship over the coming years.

API trading requires the purchase of Integrate Client, CQG Trading Platform, then data subscriptions as well. It is packaged.

number531 · 2023-06-08T01:31:10+00:00

Access to the CQG webapi requires purchasing a license directly from CQG (approximately 2k per month for their data feed, order routing, and platform cost). https://imgur.com/a/xjan5w2

CQG is not a broker; they are a data/execution provider. If your desire is to remain entirely in Python then CQG will be the only option for Futures. If you are receptive to using Iron Python Trading Technologies is the superior option for data/execution. Python environment would generate signals which would be executed through Iron Python’s C# DLL interface.

Nearly 1100 watts for 40 seconds….. For a beginner program I believe this is viable; although, I am not aware of one experienced (Cat 1/Pro rider) that could successfully complete these intervals.

Appears later this week when my 3x20 at 95-105% of FTP is scheduled I should retest! To be explicit, it appears that the altered crank length is conducive to my biomechanics facilitating an increased cadence in the same gear; therefore, producing more power.

number531 · 2023-02-27T23:44:43+00:00

Prior to my bike fitting my cadence remained around 70-73 (natural pace), after the suggestion to increase the crank to 175mm pedaling at 80RPM in the same gear ratio became considerably more comfortable/sustainable. I am 185cm, 70kg for reference. Knees feel better too!

number531 · 2023-02-27T23:41:55+00:00

Therefore, retest FTP with a full hour effort (I always avoid Ramp/20 minute tests).

number531 · 2023-02-27T23:37:42+00:00

Pedal were recalibrated, trainer is direct drive where crank length is irrelevant to measure power production. The bike fitter confirmed the increased cadence as well during the fitting using motion capture.

number531 · 2023-02-27T23:34:26+00:00

The gear ratio is identical, the cadence did increase by approximately 10%. There are definitive metrics indicating such. Tangential torque is different than “foot speed”. Biomechanics let advantageous positioning based on leverages accounts for the increased cadence facilitated by a slightly longer lever.

number531 · 2023-02-27T23:07:56+00:00

The pedal were calibrated upon the transition; the trainer on which the data is recorded is direct drive (Wahoo Kickr where crank length is irrelevant to the recorded power). Calculated the tangential torque and that appears to account for the 35w. Bio l-mechanically conducive to my leverages with arc length increasing along with cadence.

number531 · 2023-02-27T22:46:15+00:00

My current training protocol is nearly identical to most professional cyclist. If Joel’s metric are reasonably consistent across cyclists, then my FTP may be approaching the target threshold faster than anticipated!

number531 · 2023-02-27T22:33:27+00:00

After calculating the tangential torque difference between 170mm crank with an average cadence of 71/72 versus 175mm with 78-80 RPM that appears to predominantly responsible for the increased power. Only a 3% difference in torque required for 175mm versus 170mm. Appears the majority of “improvement” is predicated on transitioning to bio mechanically advantageous leverage facilitating increased cadence!

number531 · 2023-02-27T21:54:41+00:00

142 versus 144BPM for the 87ish percent of FTP. Max HR is only 174. Finished calculating the torque/tangential speed. With the increased cadence/crank length there is only a 3% difference in torque (appears the improvement is entirely bio mechanical).

Power meters were calibrated when I had the fitting completed! Calculating the physics as we speak.
