I wonder if you and I are working on the same thing. ;)

I'm building infrastructure that I'm hoping will be needed to complete the Stockfighter trading puzzles.

(Hoping, because it's entirely possible that I will be lied too far less than the documentation leads me to believe, and I won't need all of this sanity checking.)



Good visualization is super helpful. The current levels don't require that much infrastructure. The level descriptions do deceive a little - just figure your own ways to the winning conditions.

(I finished level 6. Now building a limit order book in golang for the heck of it)


Urrgh. I should have put up a "Be dreadfully careful with your replies, lest they maybe contain spoilers." warning.

Mea culpa. :P


Zero spoilers in my replies, I think. The order book has nothing to do with winning the levels, just for fun.


For these sorts of things, I'm unreasonably sensitive to spoilers. The assertion that the current levels don't require that much infrastructure is on the spoilery side of the edge of spoiler territory for me.

Like I said, there was no way you could have known, as I didn't mention my opinions on spoilers. So, no worries. :)


Sort of.

Stockfighter is great and serves as a great introduction to the field. However I am building something aimed for "the real world".

The system will, after being backtested, trade Bitcoin and small amounts of $ & € to learn.
