Overview
What it is
A long-running engineering experiment around market data, signals, automation, and the discipline required to test a strategy without confusing a compelling chart for evidence.
The interesting part
The challenge
The difficult part is not placing an order. It is creating repeatable rules, controlling risk, handling unreliable data, and separating a genuine signal from noise or overfitting.
Selected work
What I built
- Created a custom algorithm intended to identify possible twelve-hour momentum events.
- Built automated buy and sell execution with explicit state and failure handling.
- Developed supporting tooling for observing decisions, reviewing behavior, and iterating on the strategy.
Result
Outcome
The project remains an experiment rather than a product claim. It continues to be a useful test bed for data pipelines, automation, and skeptical evaluation.
