Machine learning in trading: theory, models, practice and algo-trading - page 315

 

What you call machine learning is essentially automatic selection of system parameters. I increase the value of A, it gets worse. I decrease it.

There are two reasons why this method is appropriate:

1. I know exactly what happens, how and why, but I don't have time to track the parameters.

2. I absolutely do not understand and do not intend to understand what is going on, but I know how to write code.

It is possible to get rich only in the first case, but practically 100% of applicants fall under the second one.

2. I absolutely do not understand and do not intend to understand what is going on, but I can write code.

You can get rich only in the first case, but almost 100% of applicants fall under the second one.

Golden words!

I'll tell more, with rare exceptions (a couple hundred people all over the globe), the skills in programming is anti-correlated with profit on the exchange, that is, the better a man can write code, the more badly he trades. This is the law.

I'll say more, with few exceptions (a couple hundred people all over the world), programming skills are anti-correlated with profits on the exchange, that is, the better a dude can write code, the shittier he trades. This is the law.


Not about that!

You can be very good at programming, but bad at trading, or vice versa. I am talking about how to make good programs. Those that make money.

Here I completely agree with you. What's the use of me working in MO, if I trade like a chicken with my paw. Trader and programmer are completely different professions....

Are you saying that you are a programmer and you are trading with your hands?

In other words, what's the use of fumbling if you can't apply it?

I agree.... I trade with my hands, hence the problems. I am already thinking of writing a robot......

So go ahead. Give out your diagnosis!!!! Listening carefully....

You can be very good at programming, but bad at trading; you can be the other way around.

Yes, it's either that or this, but not both at the same time.

Alexei Tarabanov:
I'm talking about how to make good programs. Profitable.

You need at least three people - manager, trader and software developer, a cohesive team, the manager must practice team-building, the trader must average, and the developer must use design peters everywhere and even if one practices pair programming, then it will be good.
