<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578881 by <a href="/recipes/users/4172570/">FB36</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/math/">math</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/mathematics/">mathematics</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/simulation/">simulation</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/stock/">stock</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/stock_market/">stock_market</a>). </p> <p>It simulates an automated trading strategy against a simulated stock.</p> <p>I think the results are interesting. It seems number of wins are always higher than number of losses but average amount of loss is also always higher than average amount of win! </p>

Revision 3. </p> <p>This recipe is solely due to the programming of Corey Goldberg (<a href="mailto:corey@goldb.org">corey@goldb.org</a>). The only thing I did to it was make it into a class. I thought that by uploading it here that more people would come across it and more people could use it. It is really good. It gives you stock information.</p>
