Good point, I’ll review this, but last time I looked at it, an enterprise account had redistribution rights. I also own a lot of the data anyway, so I would be able to provide that with no issues.

Free Unlimited Stock/Finance API

Hey everyone,I have an investing app, so I am paying (quite a bit) for a subscription to get financial data for the app. While building this, I always wished that I could have free access to this information. I would love to provide this information as an API for free, but I wanted to know what sorts of info people would want. Ideally, I would only like to create a few endpoints so it’s easier...

Re:Quadrupled My Investment Using AI Model on Wednesday July 20, 2022 @03:28PM (#32170920)
I created an investing app for the iOS App Store. There is a lot of features on the app but I am really proud of the direction AI that I created using Turicreate and Tensorflow.

When I first created this, I wanted to test how accurate the AI would be, so I back tested it using historical stock data. When I got the results, I was super skeptical because it seemed way too good to be true.

The AI provides a confidence percentage and when this is high, the AI predicts the directions stock will move with 90%+ accuracy.

I decided to invest $200 in short term options using the Predictions, and I am now up to $800 within a week.

It’s just a start, but I thought it was cool enough to share!

No worries! To train the model I utilized Turicreate and tensorflow.

Okay give me like 30 minutes!

Because the repo is private rn. I can create a public one with just that section of the code though, if you wanted to check it out!

I trained my own machine learning model to predict the direction a stock would move the next day using a few things like past prices, volumes, EPS, historical profits, etc.

To check it’s accuracy I generated a prediction for everyday for the past year. Then I checked to see if the price went up from the previous day and I also check if that’s what the model predicted. For some crazy reason, the AI is predicting the movement of some stocks at 90%+ for high confidences (GOOG, AMZN, etc.).

I feel like my math is wrong somewhere but I am not sure. The app that has this is called Hubble Investing for iOS. If anyone checks the app out, let me know the email used, and I can give a free premium account to inspect the AI outcome.

I can also link to a GitHub repo, if anyone wants to check my math. I just feel like it’s not possible to have an AI that predicts so accurately!

This is seriously so sick!
