Right now I have one of (or the?) fastest HFT bot on gdax -- I define "fastest" as being on average the first bot to re place maker orders at best when the price moves. With 1 being the first order in line it's currently averaging 1.39 on price changes -- so it gets a ton of matches.

The bot uses a NN for predicting the price. I've been working on it for 3 months and so far the bot is profitable.

If anyone out there is interested in this space I'm looking for a partner. Also open to business offers.

The whole pipeline (data collection, data processing, trading bot, backtesting, model training, etc.) is built on golang, aws, and training with keras.
