Yes just make sure to inverse every trade they suggest and also make sure to stay out of MU

No because there isn't much to automate.

I takes me about 40 hours to do proper DD on a company. It depends if I know the sector well, if not then even more. The actual trade is just hitting the sell/buy button.

That's once in a month.

I don't think I could ever automate the DD process.

You can come up with good AI and amazing algos but at the end of the day, a doctor knows more about the ill person just by looking at him/her for a few seconds, I feel like it's the same with trading/investing.

If I automate the valuation, I lose the connection to a company and its numbers. Another example would be insider transactions, there is a difference how you evaluate insider trading, it depends on the company and its market cap, the sector, and the management.

I don't even know how I could ever come up with good indicators for those issues.

Now there are also people who use TA, that's your clientele.

How do you sync your laptops ? I've tried that a few times but I always missed something.

No but I don't have to be good because 90% of all software is stupid CRUD.

So basically the demand for native IOS devs is shrinking based on point 3?

I could not find any indicators in their quarterly report. I didn't believe that someone would buy AMD.

I did not just short sell it instantly but I waited for news, once I realised that I was right, I shorted them and also made profit.

I believe in the company and I think that this stock will be much more worth in a few years but those absurd gains were just panic buyers and once they realised that they were wrong they started panic selling. Great week for me

"random"

Sure in emergency situations and that's a bad thing no doubt about that but that's not the general assumption.

Yea totally !

But I had a very interesting situation once. I asked one of my clients if it's ok for him, if I move to Croatia for some time, he tried to convince me that it's his right to pay less since I don't need as much as in Austria.

So I assume that he basically thought: "you don't need that money since everything else is cheaper and you earn more than the average person in Croatia"

I mean if you think about it, the average salary in Romania is like 450 Euro's ? Now imagine a dev living in Romania with 4k Euro's each month, working for a company in Germany.

I'm not saying that they are right, all I'm saying is that I understand their thinking process ( even if it's totally BS )

They next issues: probably taxes, there is a reason why we got hourly rates like 90/hour, our taxes are killer, if you have good rates, you can be sure that you will lose 50% on taxes, while in other countries it's not like that.

Compared to Romania ( low flat rate 16% tax ), this is insane[0].

Long story short, they try to figure out the cost of living and based on that, that's what you get.

I thought about my comment and also yours, you made think about why I wrote this.

I probably want other readers to remind that they should not blindly trust recommendations from HN.

Edit: If everyone agree's on something, new readers will more likely accept the fact that this book is worth buying, but if a few say the opposite, the reader has to evaluate before buying.

I once bought the book 'garry kasparov - how life imitates chess' because of HN reviews, It was probably the worst book I've ever read, full of obvious things.
