Cycle #8, day 1:
If OF efficiency is proportional to the amount of dreaming that it is inducing, it works vey well.
I did plenty of dreaming again last night.
Update:
The big feature that I said to have started to work on 2 days ago is painful to work on...
My mind is shrouded in complexity and uncertainties about the details of the mechanics of how it will work.
I have narrowed down the uncertainties to only 2 classes by writing the aspects that were crystal clear. Not much remains to be done to complete.
but something that I don't have now is clarity on how to achieve what remains to be done. I'll probably take a break from this task for today and wait tomorrow moring when my mind is going to be fresh and alert.
Update 2:
Things are feeling better. Instead of attempting to write code directly, I have started to write down the various scenarios that could result inside the functions that have to be modified and also what is possible to happen by calling the new functions. IOW, I'm writing the design of this new feature. This tremendously help. I feel like I'm going to succeed this engineering prowess very soon...
Update 3:
Something that I have just realized is that I have been so absorbed into developing this new feature that I forgot to worry about the lack of trading from my system.
This week has been extremely quiet in terms of trading. Beside few false positives, my system didn't see any opportunities. It is funny but I have identified a new market indicator. It is the CPU usage by my server. It has been at around 4-5% for the last few days. It means that it does receive not much market updates from the exchange. This is in opposition to the 12-15% CPU usage that I have seen last week-end...
It is kinda sad because I feel like I'll have the time to install 2 big features one on top of the other without having the chance to have tested the first one by itself. In a way, it is a bit scary but I will adapt to whatever happens...
