I had a stock/forex trading phase years ago and I wanted to know whether I could automate a good trading strategy (my strategy was terrible) and maybe get it to run on a live account.
Unfortunately, It’s not exactly possible to do all of this with India & its regulations. I was eventually able to get a model to train on forex & stock market data (with a LOT of help from a good friend). Even managed to test the model and have it plot some graphs and what not.
I lost interest after realizing I can’t
really explore this concept further with more freedom till I move out of the country.
I’ll be revisiting this soon perhaps... :)
Context
I was exploring stock & forex trading as a random area of interest when I found out it's possible to automate trading strategies programmatically.
Approach
Python scripts in a Jupyter Notebook with pre existing ML libraries from scikit-learn were used to train & test the model with a mock trading strategy. Data was plotted and graphs were created for Learning performance, Test performance & data fit.
Outcome
Explored ML until I discovered that India has regulations against trading and what I was trying to develop isn't feasible in production. But a fun concept was still tested out & a deeper understanding of data science & machine learning was acquired.
