A Trade Order Executor for Reducing Transaction Costs
In the previous weeks, we developod a barebone order executor:
and then developed a more stable MetaAPI SDK brokerage service class:
We are happy to announce our more advanced positional order executor:
Next week, we will use the trade logs generated and build a order executor dashboard using streamlit to analyze our execution performance & data. This will have finished our quant tool engineering series.
Since this newsletter is all about me being candid and honest with my community of readers, to reflect back on the last 3 months:
In the last 3 months, there were significant changes in the way our newsletter evolved in terms of the depth and sophistication we assumed in part from our readers. WE INTEND TO continue in this direction and don’t intend on `dumbing’ down the content as we progress. Our hope is that beginner readers DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED by the more difficult content in recent months and find it within themselves to start from the earlier content, which is significantly easier to absorb and implement. We believe the content we now put forward is now more suitable for a mature audience of both professional/institutional traders and technically skilled amateur hobbyists, of which is a good part of the representation of our readers. To be frank, I am excited to move on from the engineering and dev part of the discussion to the market research portion - writing tens of thousands of lines of code within weeks to months can be quite the tax - and a switch up in gear is in order.
