Guess I've spent at least fifty hours writing some code which will eventually become some automated stock trading software. I've found some really awesome trading instruments, and possibly some algorithms too. I need to do further testing, and I'm sure there are confusing bugs everywhere, but thus far it looks like this might be profitable:
The green lines are my top algorithms so far, the reds are the best-performing instruments. I'm pretty sure that a 80,000% yearly interest is just a little bit much and due to some sorry-ass bugs, but the 300% I had set as a minimum is sure to be exceeded. If I can get a big enough profit, I don't care about the Sharpe ratio or risk. In a few weeks I'll know more.
