    New York leaders wrote an open letter to Jeff Bezos asking him to bring Amazon HQ2 back to Queens

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 06:21 AM PST

    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/03/01/new-york-leaders-publish-open-letter-asking-amazon-hq2-to-come-back.html

    Around 40 union leaders, local officials and business owners asked Amazon to reconsider New York for its HQ2 in an open letter published as a full-page ad in The New York Times.

    The Times reported that Cuomo has been reaching out to Amazon executives, including CEO Jeff Bezos, about reconsidering its plans in the city.

    Amazon has yet to show signs that it's willing to rethink its decision.

    I'm sharing my Google Sheets Stock Tracker

    Posted: 28 Feb 2019 09:17 PM PST

    A few weeks ago, I shared my Excel Stock Tracker with Excel's new "stock features" on it. Unfortunately, there were a lot of people who couldn't use it due to MSFT's different Excel platforms (Student and older versions couldn't use it).

    Today I'm sharing my Google Sheets Stock Tracker. I must say I like this one better.

    The original ideas came from a Canadian Cannabis Stock Tracker that I got somewhere on Reddit. Sorry, I can't find the original post that had it in it.

    A question about ADR stocks

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 03:46 AM PST

    I live in Europe and own a few stocks listed in the US as ADR stocks (Chinese companies).

    A friend of mine said owning ADR stocks is much riskier than owning a stock directly. He also mentioned taxes and the dividends was a hassle. Now I've owned them for about 1-2 years and everything has worked fine. My positions are small though, under 1000 euros.

    For a person living in Europe, is owning an ADR stock listed in the US much different than say owning Apple?

    HOW I USE THIS:

    1) All the stocks identified in the table are qualified as "BUY" opportunities.

    2) I focus in the column "Success Rate(3m)" which shows the precision of the agents in the last 3 calendar months. I personally feel most comfortable with Rates 0.8 or higher.

    3) Then, I see the number in "Tx(3m)" which represents the number of transactions that the agents predicted for this stock in the last 3 months. I prefer stocks that have had at least two transactions during this period.

    4) Finally, I look at Growth(3m), if the agents have had a considerable growth (>5% in 3 months) then I follow that trade.

    5) If a row in the table is colored green then it means that stock has been on the rise today so I purchase it immediately in order to ride the wave up. On the other hand, if the row is colored red, then I wait out until very close to market close to purchase the stock and let the price bottom out before climbing up again tomorrow.

    6) After I purchase the stocks, I ALWAYS set a stop loss order at -2.5% from my buying price valid for the day. I think this is good hygiene, no matter how confident I am of my system, I still want to make sure that my losses are capped. I update this stop loss order every day.

    BACKGROUND

    I am not a financier or economist. I am electrical engineer with equal passion in artificial intelligence and financial markets. For the past 2 years I have been working on a system that would make short term predictions of stocks. The system is rather complex, I use multiple layers which include: Convolutional Neural Networks, LSTMs and Genetic Algorithms. All bulked together produce an output like in this image. The way to interpret the image is a follows: Symbol and Date columns are self explanatory, Quorum refers to autonomous agents that decide whether to BUY/NOT BUY or SELL/HOLD a stock. Each symbol has 9 agents, and the Quorum column, counts the number of agents that recommend Buy, Selling or Holding the stock. The "Not Owned" column means: if you don't own this stock then you should … The "Owned" column means: if you own this stock you should HOLD or SELL. The column "Growth(1 Year)" refers to what what has been the growth of this system of Agents in the past calendar year. The column "Tx(1Yr)" shows the number of full transactions that these agents recommended in the last calendar year. "Factor" is just the division of Growth divided by Transactions to get the average growth per transaction. Finally "Success Rate" shows how successful these agents have been in their recommendations in the past calendar year, success 1 means 100% successful, 0.5 means 50% successful, and so on.

    Many people have been curious about the actual process that the system follows, so here it is: for every symbol (600 stocks are analyzed daily), we get the full stock data (open,close,high,low,volume) for the past 4 months. Each stock is associated with another set of "lookalike" stocks as well as major ETF's. This initial dataset is run through a convolutional layer that extracts an undisclosed number of features. These features are then passed onto a recurrent neural network (LSTM) where sequences and patterns are extracted. The LSTM then spits out probabilities for the likelihood that this stock will have a positive, negative and neutral tendency in the next N days. These probabilities are then fed to a genetic evolution system (GES). This system essentially checks the predictions for the past N days and compares them with reality, following that the systems knows which predictions are performing the best. Once the system knows which stocks are being simulated the best, then the system automatically finds which of these best performing stocks have the biggest potential for the next few days. The system does not output explanations, unfortunately us humans are not capable of understanding (or visualizing) a problem of this dimensionality, for example the LSTM part alone works with over 10 million dimensions, not features but dimensions.

    So I bought some Nintendo stock.

    Posted: 01 Mar 2019 10:55 AM PST

    Not too much, just 4 shares. I do plan on dumping a few hundred into it in the next few weeks. Seeing as though I'm new to this and that I only have about 1.2k in Marijuana stocks, thought I should diversify. What do y'all think about Nintendo?
