  • Tradebot.
    • Read a bit more about backtrader, both for general strategies and specific backtrader syntax.
    • Robin-stocks has a ton of useful information. http://www.robin-stocks.com/en/latest/functions.html#getting-stock-information. Basically everything that's available about your account, holdings, and the entire public market.
    • Added the full capability to transact remotely. Can login, view all account data, buy, sell, market, limit, etc. Closed the ticket. https://gitlab.com/bmahlstedt-group/tradebot/issues/2.
    • Wrote the backtester components.
      • Starting money.
      • Quantity to buy.
      • How and when to buy.
      • How and when to sell.
      • Commission.
      • Online ingestion of yahoo finance data, current and historical.
      • Reporting of portfolio performance: gross profit and % change.
    • The buy/sell triggers right now are very simple, using basic analytics on the past couple days' closing price. I'm off to the indicators section next, using SMA and then more complicated models.
  • A single AA battery has 2000-3000 mAh, about the same as a phone battery.
  • Lost both FF games and got 1.5 in sbsc.
  • The columns in the user table for email prefs were non-nullable but had no defaults, so registration was broken.
  • FF moves. 4 for ESPN, 5 for Yahoo. Lotta bye weeks.
  • Under armour dropped 18%, under investigation for fluffing sales numbers.
  • Muse again today. Lots to go through. Solid.
  • Gonna try vegan protein powder again, from peas and brown rice instead of whey isolates.
    • Bought Orgain. $12/lb, similar to my standard Optimum Nutrition bin.
    • More carbs (all fiber). Slightly higher fat (couple grams). Slighly lower protein (couple grams).
  • Bought sesame and chia seeds.
  • Apple donated 2.5B (FB and Google made similar smaller donations) to make bay area housing less insane.
  • Edge is the new Microsoft browser (RIP Explorer), and it launches Jan 15. It's built off of Chromium, Google open-source Chrome. Weird.
  • Transferred 10k from BOA to Robinhood for the tradebot to experiment with.
  • Other options besides GTC: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/timeinforce.asp.
