I was playing around on cash app and spent a few dollars on the stocks there. I got bored of it eventually, but it got me thinking that there has to bots for this already.
I want a bot that I can give a dollars worth of stock. If that dollar’s worth rises by two cents, I want it sell a cent, and put the other cent into a pool for the next dollars worth of stock.
This has to have been done before, I just never learned anything about it.
There is a lot of analytics that happen with HFT also I would say there hardware would prioritise low latency parts to shave nanoseconds off any trade.
FPGA, gigantic in memory caches, and ten gig fiber back channel connections to the exchange server in the next rack over.
We are hopelessly outclassed.
