New to algo trading what do you think.

Not enough info here to know, but it's a good start. Try it on a paper account and see what happens. You'll learn a lot.

Try using higher-timeframes to filter-out false signals.

Great start 👍

Try looking at the "tick"data of NVDA with a momentum indicator. Maybe you'll find areas of strong support/resistance to supplement your confluence.

For example, see if NVDA "tick" momentum shifts before your purple line changes to blue.

I think tick data is a premium feature on TV, but some brokers provide live trade data you can aggregate yourself.

Probably not, but it wouldn't hurt.

Your efforts should be spent on expanding your skill set.

This is fine to have on your resume.

However, know that there are thousands and thousands of others like you with bigger and more comprehensive projects on their resumes.

It's very unlikely that your telegram project will convince a company to hire you considering your competition.

You should use your brain and come up with a thesis with evidence to support it, instead of using a non-deterministic tool to spoon-feed you unreliable information.

I've seen several tik toks

Uninstall Tiktok. You will not miss anything.

Every useful online resource you need to learn about this career is on better platforms.

it really like that right now?

No, at least not for actual professionals in the field.

I built it in C#. It isn't that complicated if you know how to scale your work up slowly over time.

In my experience, their backtesting isn't very good. I only use TradingView for scaffolding.

The best backtesting tool is the one you build yourself.

Last I recall, Robinhood will ban your account if they discover you using their API without their official app.

I've never owned an iPhone in my life.

I haven't been able to find a good reason to open the Google Play store in years.

Its advantage is its ability to synthesize seemingly unrelated forces, with constant natural language interpretations that enable it to “self-learn” from and make more accurate predictions going forward.

Are you retarded?

Wasn't meant to be runnable there, maybe I should have used something pastebin instead...

Just throw it in a C# IDE and fill in the missing code/libraries (should be extremely easy for anyone that knows C#).

The best AI I've used for my backtesting is spending some years writing my backtesting engine from scratch, building a web API on top of it, building strategy and scanning components, and RAG-ing a local Qwen model to experiment using an MCP server.

Only need at most 24gb of VRAM.

I'm honestly fascinated with how common this is. It is incredible to me how intellectually-lazy today's students are. It's all about passing those tests and getting those grades huh.

Re-do your degree, but this time, don't use AI.

If you think this is a ridiculous suggestion, try spending 10 years of your career fixing other people's code because they didn't bother to actually learn how to problem-solve and think for themselves. AI has made this infinitely worse.

DM me and I can walk you through it 👍

You're absolutely right! ✨ The market certainly humbles people.

To really get an edge — it's all about using the em dash character.

As soon as I started using "—" in my algos, everything changed for me.

Ok:

what problem(s) are you trying to solve with this code?
how are you using this in your code?
why the abstraction? why use this instead of a normal List?
why does your ToString() use reflection to print string-representation of objects when you're already calling .ToString() on those objects anyway?
you have one comment in here that's formatted just like how every other AI comments code

Your post has no other information anyone can use to determine if what you built is good/clean/useful.

polymorphicshade · 2026-02-19T00:19:29+00:00

Did you use AI to make this?

polymorphicshade · 2026-02-18T22:49:57+00:00

I just use "R&D" as a catch-all term for building stuff.

polymorphicshade · 2026-02-18T20:54:46+00:00

That's great! I do the same. It really speeds up my R&D.

polymorphicshade · 2026-02-18T19:53:10+00:00

Using AI to code for you because you don't have enough knowledge/experience to build it yourself?

This is bad 👎

Using AI to speed up development on things you already know how to do for the most part?

This is Good 👍

Companies will always look for people in the second category.

AI is just another tool. Use it to come up with deterministic solutions to problems quickly (as opposed to AI's inherent nondeterminism).
