Cycle 4, stage 4 (month 2), day 8:
I have completed all the required infrastructure to implement a new trading system component in my system. It has been more complicated than I hope but I have finally completed writing this part...
I was about to take over the remaining tasks to bring this project to completion only to find out my server misbehaving. I have just found out the issue. An Internal General error coming from the exchange in a new situation never seen before by my client... It is fascinating the number of different ways that things can go wrong...
I try to figure out how my journal is perceived by others... Talking about fixing bugs constantly may give the impression that I am lousy dev... far from it. Creating a trading client is possibly the hardest task that I have never tackle before... I have basically played to a Wack-A-Mole game for essentially 2-3 years...
As an interesting sidenote, my legacy market making model is making more profits than usual... If the past is indicative to what is to come... Such observation did always precede some big market major move... as if big investors were more sloppy in their trading because they are in a hurry to reach their position...
It is going to be interesting to look back at this entry a week from now...
