I built an entire osx app around it… in the end it's just a kind of momentum outperformance tracker, but it's really in the details on when to exit, max positions, etc. that it gets really good. I still wonder if my code is correct though, cause it seems waaaay too good to be true haha.

I've been down that path! Long duration outperformers. You can optimize by severely limiting max positions, acceleration, etc… I had crazy results (also in backtesting > no hindsight!, but yahoo data and also no updated selection). I'm holding out for valuations in general to come down first though.

DO NOT overestimate financial markets. It's mostly short-term earnings, buybacks, arbitrage or simply placing bets. Structural decay of market integrity, long term risks of democratic standards, inequality growth risks, leverage, valuations … no one acts on that stuff. When Lambo?

Victorian man here might have a point. Efficiency, productivity. To what end? Though I'd say balance is key here since there's really no need to romanticize the past. But maybe we went a bit too far? Therefore some question what work is for if it's not for a grand vision of beauty on a human scale?
