Shocking how far ahead Claude Code is from Codex on the CLI front.

With Claude Code I created an agent that spawns 5 copies of itself branching git worktrees from main branch using subagents so no context leaks into their instructions. The agent will every 60 seconds analyze the performance of each of the copies which run for about 40 minutes answering the question "what would you do different?". After they finish the task, the parent will update the .claude/ files enhancing itself…

you can have it build an execution engine that interfaces with any broker with minimal effort.

how do you have it build a "trading strategy"? it's like asking it to draw you the "best picture".

it will ask you so many questions you end up building the thing yourself.

if you do get something, given that you didn't write it and might not understand how to interpret the data its using - how will you know whether it's trading alpha or trading risk?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Where is 263 GB database of every stock quote and options trade in the past 4 years?

https://massive.com/docs/flat-files/quickstart I use TimescaleDB which is fast with the compression. People say there are better but I don’t think I can fit another year of data on my disk drive either or

Compression doesn't really explain the whole picture...

Where'd you get the data itself? You sense I suppose everyone's skepticism here.

Let us perform a thought experiment. You do this. Many others, enthusiastic about both LLMs, and stocks/options, have similar ideas. Do these trading strategies interfere with each other? Does this group of people leveraging Claude for trading end up doing better in the market than those not? What are your benchmarks for success, say, a year into it? Do you have a specific edge in mind which you can leverage, that others cannot?

This is where I’m at now with getting Claude to iterate over a problem. https://github.com/adam-s/intercept?tab=readme-ov-file#the-s...

I can care less about scraping and web automation and I will likely never use that application.

I am interested in solving a certain class of problems and getting Claude to build a proxy API for any website is very similar to getting Claude to find alpha. That loop starts with Claude finding academic research, recreating it, doing statistical analysis, refining, the agent updating itself, and iterate.

Claude building proxy JSON api for any website and building trading strategies is the same problem with the same class of bugs.

Wait, why do we need chat sheets for this like it's (gasp!) a programming language, tool or IDE?

it's almost like if the thing is not intelligent at all and just another abstraction on top of what we already had.

"AGI" is not what you think it is.

Their superior skills with LLMs will give them an edge, of course. Yes, I've met people who think like this lol

Agent mania is a subset of AI mania, it's interesting to see which it is that makes a person crack
