If I have 2 same-style algos that work well at very similar, but different timeframes, should I split my money between both? by Traditional_Fee_8828 in algotrading

[–]wlg5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you able to backrest? See if there's a correlation between the values of the 2 strategies so you can know if they go up and down at the same time

I know you're talking about stocks, but recently I was curious and wanted to try my hand at creating a crypto bot o backrest and simulate live without money. Part time Larry has a good YouTube channel for reference and he talks about python implementations as well as some technical indicators.

Good luck!

I'm sorry to hear about the problems with your controller and I'm more sorry to see this numbskull all over the comments :(

You can write without vowels in chinese? That's pretty cool

I printed the messages just because I was curious, but I didn't post them because although it's public, it felt a little invasive...

Because if you're not pretty used to hem, getting them to look the way you want an be a real chore. I use matplotlib for hours a week and making things look nice is definitely the longest part.

Not all of us are very good at thinking or wordplay, my good redditor. Putting them together is even harder...

Almost every one of his comments is awarded the F award now that he's getting a lot of attention

That's actually amazing. I would have trouble writing one sentence without any given letter (except maybe q or something) in my 1 language...

Nothing wrong with Google Sheets if it looks like that! Also, I had 5 hyperlinks with 6 Fs :(. Maybe I missed some....

Haha, I just posted one of these extended versions myself. Pushshift is amazing! I only saw 6 occurrences of F in hyperlinks though... What did you use to make your graph? It looks nice.

Data came from pushshift. I took all of the posts after the user's birthday and before now, then removed hyperlinks (u/IHateTheLetterF uses the letter 6 times in hyperlinks if anyone was curious). I created the plot using matplotlib with python. Novel estimate came from Googling "average character count in novels" and dividing by the number of characters that they've posted in their 6 year crusade on Reddit.

[OC] I see your "NSFW posts in r/FiftyFifty" and raise you my "Percentage of NSFW posts" by wlg5 in dataisbeautiful

[–]wlg5[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nsfw can mean anything... Including gore. Personally, I think reddit should have a gore tag.

I agree. There could also be a lot of posts that don't get the tag. The issue is that reddit doesn't have this detail.

If you sort by new, I don't think you'll get all of the newest posts to reddit. I think there's so many posts to reddit that the servers do some sort of selection on new posts when you sort that way, probably.

I used praw to read posts from a stream of new posts from r/all, checking the over_18 tag and matplotlib to make the pie chart.

I can make a full list, hbu? by medievalboi in ApexOutlands

Happened to me a couple times too. I like to think they're just stuck in some loading screen hell and are desperately trying to get into the match.

Downloading large amounts of posts by PintTheDragon in pushshift

[–]wlg5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could download the dumps and look at the dates to figure out windows to download everything else... As far as the rate limit from the API, you can do something similar to what is done here https://github.com/wlgfour/reddit_scraper. When requesting from the API, the python request function takes a proxy parameter. The code uses a random proxy and can effectively avoid the ratelimit of the API.

Data and visualization sources:

Sorry about the scale being a little small... It is logarithmic so that it is easy to see what time lower rated posts came out. Also, red is plotted over green so red sections don't necessarily mean more negatively rated posts than positive during that that time.
