Show HN: Cappio – stock research that isn't overwhelming

Roughly what I was saying. I don't actually think all forms of analysis don't work, and I currently run a strategy I do think works. Note the strategy involves no web design or pretty colored boxes. I run it like this:

    $ python compute_trades.py

Then I manually enter the results into my broker.

However, you are correct that I believe accurately communicating dubious information is nothing more than duping credible idiots with pretty web design.

Out of curiosity, where does your script get data (prices and whatever else)?

Quandl for now, but fairly soon I'll be collecting realtime prices from interactive brokers.

(My strategies generally run on a daily basis, so daily data is good enough for that. But soon I'm going to switch to a full algo strategy, which will require realtime data to backtest.)
