Lean VS soundfingerprinting

6.) You cant maximize position size of spread options strategies, LEAN always assumes naked margin first and ON THE NEXT DATA FRAME - you get your reg-t margin for spreads. https://github.com/QuantConnect/Lean/issues/5693 We're running into 2 years of this issue being reported.

Thanks. I will check it out. Can you point me to the right part of the codebase I should be looking at? I know it must be somewhere here - https://github.com/QuantConnect/Lean

They have nice documentation on their website for how to download/import external data, though. They even have GitHub examples that pull data from Dropbox.

Here is an example https://github.com/QuantConnect/Lean/blob/master/Algorithm.Python/DropboxUniverseSelectionAlgorithm.py

There's also the open-source lean.io stuff by QuantConnect which looks decent and comes with data. It's pretty inexpensive too.

I can plot OHCL lines, I can plot OHCL scatter points on the chart, why can't I plot candles? It's just those scatter points put together. This thing has been going on for 8 YEARS.

Here's a link to one of the strategy examples from the QC team that does this -- loading a universe from an external source. https://github.com/QuantConnect/Lean/blob/master/Algorithm.Python/DropboxCoarseFineAlgorithm.py

Started 10 years ago as an open-source project, building an algorithm for audio fingerprinting. Added a commercial offering, selling storage built specifically for audio fingerprints, targeting enterprise customers. Since the offering was too technical (it's hard to sell solutions to problems that are too narrow and domain-specific), pivoted to more "business-oriented problems". This last year's pivot is a chance to finally grow. Running a business in single-player mode is, at times, too stressful. Aside from the technical part, which I very much enjoy, I need to wear marketing, sales, and customer support hats.

The OP said elsewhere they are using this[1] library, which allows you to specify minimum seconds to match, so you'd presumably set it to match 20 seconds or whatever minimum length podcast commercials usually are.

Most other audio fingerprinting libraries I've seen allow you to specify min/max time, as well.

HTH.

My goal for the next year is just to work fewer hours. Covid pushed my work habit to the extreme, and I need to rebalance.

1. Read more books, less social media/news.

2. Spend more time with my friends. I haven't seen some of them IRL for more than a year.

3. Exercise more, play tennis with my daughter, spend quality time with my kids.

4. Spend more time with my parents. They've become visibly older in the last years, an observation that scares me.

5. Focus more on marketing for the businesses that I've bootstrapped. All the shiny new features that are developed are not as important as getting more people to use your product.

6. Promote open-source project to 1k GitHub stars[1]. I know it isn't very meaningful, but it's just nice to receive a bit of recognition from the community.

7. Enjoy life, don't stress about all the little things that happen along the way.

Happy new year!
