I've developed a bot that's reasonably effective at playing the market (based upon my testing against historical market data). I want to actually deploy said bot but can't seem to find an api to pull market data and/or actually make trades. I mean I've found some but their fees are obscene. I would play crypto but my bot isn't effective against crypto. What are my options?

If Mexican and Canadian tariffs are activated on Sunday, will we see a big crash on Monday?

I think DeepSeek and its deployment is a calculated market manipulation of the US stock market specifically including NVDA and other AI stocks as 1) it’s released on a weekend before the Monday trading; 2) certain news and SNS started praising it bitching other US AI co everywhere even without verifying its shortcoming and its service terms; 3) it’s made by a hedge fund in China; 4) that Chinese HF apparently obtained restricted NVDA chips for its training, if they did have some training; 5) it just so happened the week prior “The $125 put expiring on February 19, 2025, saw a significant open interest increase by 18.51K contracts, indicating increased bearish sentiment.” ( https://www.ainvest.com/news/whale-moves-nvda-125-put-soars-vix-50-call-sees-major-increase-250110104f8b588030e399aa/ )

I've been thinking about buying some Bluesky stocks thinking it might gain value over time as people are moving away from X. What do you guys think?

Fuck this.

I've lost thousands these past couple of weeks thanks to agent orange here who's been threatening Taiwan with all sorts of bullshit. This has affected the whole chip market, which in turn affected the EV market and other computer hardware manufacturers.

Already, the EV market wasn't doing so well due to lack of enthusiasm from consumers who can barely afford a shelter over their head, let alone a good damn electric car at the price they're selling them. This also affect the EV battery industry and everything related.

My ETFs we performing poorly already, so on to of this with the chip industry stocks tanking, I decided to sell everything.

Instead I'm going to invest in SAP which seems to be doing well and I think they announced they were going to enter the travel industry with a new platform? And their stocks are going strong.

Oh and it looks like its up another 50% ah.

Its going to be one of "those" days tomorrow.
