40% returns seems like a lot. Your quote, "FX.Machine builds profitable trading strategies by learning from historical data", is true for most of the strategies. What makes your strategy different? I would think that many people have tried both statistical and machine learning methods. I do not hear about any 40% returns from them. Your claim of 40% returns makes me doubt your testing strategy. Your forward test shows only 7.9% increase till now. There are a whole set of backward tests missing and a lot of information missing to consider your strategy seriously. For example, how is the risk being measured? Is it drawdown, Sharpe ratio etc?

What do you offer a candidate to work for you for 2 weeks? I am assuming most of the candidates already have a fulltime job.

As far as I know, it should be capable of these.

Well, it borrows a lot from python, has lisp-like macros, and has pretty good FFI to C. I don't think it has any network building or game libraries. There might be some web packages. It is mainly geared towards scientific computing.

Are there any web developers who cannot write HTML tables? I do not see any point for the "Tablr".
