I really hate people who charge obscene amounts of money for courses:

At a minimum, you would need an account that is 33.333 times greater than the amount you paid for the course, to make the cost equal to 10% of what you have allocated for risk (30%); if you're going to start more than 10% down, that's nuts.

Are you marketing this course to people who have an account size of $39,900? probably not.

Do you care that the people spending $1197 to learn how to trade trendlines probably only have $4800 to $9800 that they can risk? no.

What you get are people who believe that if they just take the course that the money will take care of itself;
no course is going to solve your problems, that's not how it works [-X

You have to manage your risk, including the risk of people convincing you to give them your money, and you have to consistently apply time-tested ideas, of which there are thousands available on the internet for free.

Just look at all of the cuckolds on this forum paying for courses and mentorships; are they profitable? I rest my case :lol:

People often ask, "I'm not profitable, what am I doing wrong". . .

the same gd-thing you did the other day, again today :lol:

You're so focused on what other people are doing (allegedly doing) that you undervalue what is working for you specifically.

I think she presents the course in a bikini so factor that into the worth it cost :)

I get it.
Trying to learn something just from the internet is not easy and some people are exploiting that.
It's not easy to find out who is legit and who is making stuff up if you have zero knowledge in the first place.

What people should know when they start their online search to learn something, is that the internet is one big advertisment platform.
Nearly everyone online is trying to get your money, it's the nature of the beast.
I feel that especially the internet generation often believes stuff "because it's online" or worse: "because google says so".

I understand all of that.

What I don't understand is that people spend money on stuff that is freely available.
That's stupid.
And no money in the world will magically solve the things you are doing wrong in trading.
Only you can solve that.

or....


maybe a psychology course.....after all I am a teacher... :smt043

We see the same thing.

We know just as much about the future as anyone else (fk-all).

So what is different between us?

Price either breaks out and closes higher or breaks out and reverses. . .
there is a story here.

Read the story, minimize risk, maximize reward; that's all that you are doing here.

Should I charge you a thousand fking dollars? maybe :lol: but I'd rather just see that you are happy, healthy, and successful.

Just 584 pages to go :lol:

I had my book spiral-bound, at UPS, and they did the worst job #-o
next time I think I'll just do it myself.

Well colour me surprised, I didn’t realise you were interested in coding let alone tackling Haskell!

What tipped the balance in favour of Haskell compared to say F#, clojure or Ocaml?

I started with LISP.

I have dabbled with Clojure.

I've paid way too much money to a school to learn Python.

I've looked into F#, personally didn't like it.

I've never touched Ocaml or Scala.

I have just started learning Haskell, but
it's like an ultra-compact Python(ish) langague with lazy evaluation and the ability to create custom operators as well as do other fancy things.

We are living in a world where not knowing how to utilize computers will leave you unable to compete, it is something that you have to do.

I would eventually like to dabble in machine learning, but that is still a few years away.

Does functional programming resonate more with you than OO or procedural?

I love lisp from an architecture perspective, but get tired of slinging maps around and working inside out all the time.

When I code algos I tend to want the kind of type safety that only statically typed languages offer.. if I pull something off a distributed queue (usually nats.io) I want to k ow with certainty that it’s a Tick or a Heartbeat or a TradeConfirmation and not have to poke and prod a data structure to be sure.

I found Java OK for that but needlessly tedious (and maybe it was me but I tended towards over-engineering my solutions). Kotlin was an excellent all round experience, but I kept going back to python for the lightness and quick prototyping it offered.

Python has made extensive inroads into the data science domain, so there was plenty of ML library integrations (which are often written in Fortran).

If I wanted to do research then Python or R would be my go to languages; if I needed to do real-time ML work (as opposed to training a model offline and then simply calling it at runtime) then I’d probably be heavily constrained by whichever trading system I was invested in (eg C++, .Net, maybe Java) and the libraries I needed.

FWIW you can do custom operators in python when you get into the meta classes but in classic python style the code ends up looking ugly.

I haven’t used Haskell for anything real but there are some impressive projects written in it… I’ve never felt I had a sufficient grasp of the comp sci concepts behind the features to leverage it properly.

It would be great to hear how you go with it!
