The best algorithmic developers aren't just programmers - they're traders who code.
I develop and code custom trading strategies, automation tools and custom software across multiple platforms and languages, including TradingView (Pine Script), MetaTrader 5 (MQL5), Python and other modern development frameworks.
Looking for a quantitative developer role.
I can turn trading strategies into fully functional systems.
Extensive experience with Linux (Gentoo, Debian) and Unix systems (FreeBSD, OpenBSD)
I’m available for projects.
You can ask for me directly in the Freelance section.
How Observation Changes Outcomes :
In quantum mechanics, when light (or electrons) passes through two slits, it creates an interference pattern on the screen behind them.
Each particle seems to go through both slits at once, existing in a super position of all possible paths and the resulting pattern reflects the probabilities of where the particle could land.
If you try to measure which slit the particle goes through, the interference pattern disappears.
Observing the particle forces it into a definite state - it goes through one slit or the other.
The act of measurement collapses the wave function and fundamentally changes the outcome.
Before you check a trade, it’s in super position.
From a statistical perspective, your trade has a probability of winning or losing based on your system but you don’t yet know the outcome.
The trade is evolving naturally, just like a quantum system.
The moment you look at it, your observation collapses the “trade wave function” into a definite state - good or bad, winning or losing.
That observation triggers an emotional reaction — stress, fear, or overconfidence—which can cause you to break your plan, over-leverage, or revenge trade.
Just like in quantum mechanics, the act of measurement affects the system.
If you hadn’t looked, the system would have continued evolving naturally and you would have followed your plan without emotional interference.
This analogy mirrors the quantum concept perfectly - observation changes the outcome, not because the market changed, but because your interaction with it changed your behavior.
In other words, checking too often destroys the natural probabilistic outcome of your system, just like measuring the slit destroys the interference pattern.
The trade itself hasn’t changed; your observation changed how you interact with it, which changes the outcome.
Final Thoughts:
Traders, you know what I’m talking about — in a demo, you can leave your strategy untouched for days, weeks, even months.
The moment it goes live, you start checking too often, micromanaging your trades, and suddenly your observation is affecting the outcome

Markov Matrix -
Interesting fact about this setup is that the Markov system doesn’t actually execute any trades.
It simply watches the market, analyses the price action, and produces a trading signal.
That signal is saved to a JSON file, which the EA then reads.
So the setup is basically:
Live chart → Markov analysis → JSON signal → Demo EA → Demo trade
You’re therefore using the live market (real account but with zero funds) to generate the decisions, but the bot is executing those decisions on a demo account.
It’s a pretty neat way of forward-testing the strategy in real market conditions before allowing the EA to trade a live account.

Bitcoin — how many of you actually saw this coming?
Did you see it coming, or were you just following the narrative?
All those YouTube shills telling you to dump your BC holdings, the endless Bitcoin hype, and the nonsense coming from Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy.
How many of you were actually thinking for yourselves rather than listening to the latest narrative being pushed at you? .
The market behaviour suggests large, well-capitalised participants were responsible for a significant part of the move.

Matrix -
Most of you are so caught up in the trading “Matrix” that you’ve forgotten how to think independently.
Every day it’s the same routine—economic calendars, FXStreet, news releases and analysts telling you what to expect.
But where is the original thought?
At some point, you have to stop following the crowd and start questioning the narrative.
Real thinking means looking beyond the obvious, challenging what everyone else accepts and forming your own view.

Thought of the day - “You’re blocking my sunlight.”
There’s an old story about Alexander the Great meeting Diogenes, who reportedly lived in a barrel.
Diogenes wasn't known for politely agreeing with powerful people.
He used humour, sarcasm and confrontation to expose what he considered hypocrisy.
Alexander asked if there was anything he could do for him.
Diogenes simply told him to move because he was blocking the sunlight.
That story feels pretty relevant here -
Some of these so-called “traders” and sellers spend their time pushing scams, selling bullshit and pretending to be something they're not.
They don't add anything of value — they just get in the way of people who are actually trying to learn, build and trade.
So to the scammers and fake sellers -
Move. You're blocking the sun.
I don’t care about someone’s colour, background, or faith.
What matters to me is their character and how they treat others.
But if someone deliberately spreads lies, manipulates people, or behaves narcissistically, I will despise that person

Once people see who you really are, the image you created of yourself can’t hold up anymore. You can try to be something you’re not, but eventually your true character will reveal itself.

I have a lot of respect and admiration for the Russian and Iranian people, and especially for the Palestinians. Some of the most honourable, genuine and respectful people I’ve come across.

Markov Matrix -
EURCAD Model Update —
Cycle 30 just finished and the system is currently holding EURCAD.
The higher timeframes are mostly bearish, with D1 and M15 showing strong downtrends, while H4 and M5 are neutral.
However, the model detected significant canary drift on EURCAD, with a KL divergence of 6.305 and 40.5% model disagreement.
Because of that, the system automatically reduced exposure by 50%, taking the position allocation from 0.165 down to 0.082, with a final multiplier of 10%.
Current status is NEUTRAL / NORMAL RISK / HOLD with a trend score of 36.73%.
So for now, the model isn't confident enough to push the trade.
It's reducing risk and waiting for the market/model alignment to improve.

Markov Matrix - Secret Hold feature -
Trade Management
Close trades only on the magic number the EA is attached to.
This allows us to follow the trend while dropping losses immediately as soon as the Hold signal comes in — which means no trade.
Its been coded directly into the bot to close on hold.
Markov just sends the signal. buy. sell or hold

It has a hold feature for when the signal switches off.
I use the signal switching off to close the trades, so it effectively acts as a dynamic SL and TP.

Hedging Strategy Update:
No open trades. No signal at the moment — waiting for the next setup.
If things get really messy, I’ll share the results, but we may need to wait through next week’s trading to properly assess how it performs

To understand mankind, one must know philosophy.
To understand computer security, one must know how to hack.
To understand trading, one must know geopolitics.

Fact -
Ever wonder why Pakistan is involved in negotiations with Iran, hosting and encouraging talks.
The new alliance recently between Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, and Pakistan is not a move against Iran.
More than likely, we’re watching geopolitics being reshaped in real time, partly in response to what many see as the failures of U.S. policy in the region.
I’ve heard claims that as much as 90% of Pakistan’s fuel comes from illegally smuggled Iranian oil, so there are clearly significant economic interests at stake.

Testing out a new technique using the Bull Bear EA for a (hedging strategy).
Going well so far.
First time I've played with the idea – and truthfully, it's just as hard to get an edge as any other strategy.
You don't hedge at the same time of course, that would be a mess.
So it takes real skill and a solid understanding of exactly what you're doing.

For a trading bot, the interesting part is how the hedge is triggered. That's where the actual strategy lives.

The bottom line - Billionaires
They do not care about you, your children, or your grandchildren.
They care about their balance sheets.
Every billionaire is a political, economic, and environmental threat to every ordinary person on this planet.
Here's how it actually works -
The FBI runs Silicon Valley – they own the backdoors, the data taps, the surveillance infrastructure.
Every tech giant answers to them when the pressure's on.
The White House owns the FBI.
The Director serves at the President's pleasure.
The Bureau does what the administration wants – weaponize investigations, bury scandals, protect allies, destroy enemies.
And the Zionists – the Israeli lobby, the neocons, the mega-donors, the intelligence links – they own the White House.
No president gets in or stays in without their blessing.
Policy on Iran, Palestine, military aid – non-negotiable.
They set the foreign policy, they fund the campaigns, they control the narrative.

In the movie, James Bond was MI6, but of course, they’re nothing like the character. Bond had a certain sense of honour, integrity, and decency that made him different.
