The name of this project is the best I have ever given. In the past, I always named my projects exactly what they did, but this time, NAIVE tells you nothing about trading. The name has a few meanings, the fact that I am naive, even a naive system can profit and keep things straightforward. I created this project in mid-2023…
This may look like a sudden and random pursuit of mine started last year. However, I had this in mind quite a while ago. My father has been a trader for over 20 years now, and he kept discussing the market and everything. I guess I was influenced by this unknowingly, and I understand the power of programming.
Another catalyst was the burst of AI, I was scared that the day I was so cautious about had finally come. However, I was overreacting at that moment. Sure, AI is amazing, but crazier things are yet to be seen. Very quickly, we may see something more astonishing.
Anyway, my shift towards trading was a successful move because I can rely less on programming which is my dominant income source. I already owned a tiny business since 2017 thanks to Apple & Google for my mobile app. This can be a great opportunity to expand my business as a sole trader. Another thing I may try is teaching both programming languages and spoken languages, but more on this later.
May was busy for me… Many had happened, but I let them go.
In June, I will continue with Project NAIVE and start yet another wave of deep learning. I had many findings since March and can’t wait to try them out. Whether this project is profitable or not, that’s not the goal. I simply want to try something like this for a long time. This project will be lifelong, and you always get interesting or weird new ideas from nowhere. This is what makes the market fine.
When the system is ready, I will just let it run and see how it goes. What’s great about being in Australia is that the market doesn’t affect your regular life. Even if I want to keep checking my positions, I physically cannot because of the time difference. The market starts from 11:30 PM or even 1:30 AM during daylight saving. It isn’t feasible to stay awake at night just to do nothing. People need to SLEEP.
Ultimately, it is something nice to have. I cannot intervene in the system directly but can update when the market is closed. One day, I may just forget about it and be shocked at how profitable it is. LOL, maybe in my dreams.
