Are you having much success with it? What platform are you using? I've wanted to do something similar in Rust.

Or if your bot is just _finding_ the pairs now but not trading, is there a platform you plan to use?

Also curious about the platform you're using, because I was kind of dissuaded from using Alpaca when I learned about the good old pattern day trading rule. Are you trading with > 25k in whatever platform you use, or do you have a limited number of trades you execute to stay away from PDT?

Why can't companies that claim to use AI as part of their product actually explain how exactly they are using some kind of AI problem solving strategy? The FAQ says nothing about how AI is used, yet AI seems to be the main thrust of the marketing for this product.

When "Powered by AI" doesn't come with any further details, my first instinct is suspicion. I'm sure developers and people involved in startups that might want to use this would love to learn a little about the details behind the AI at work here.

Do you think monads, functors, recursion, and immutability (just to take a few staples of functional programming) are easier for a beginner to wrap their head around than loops, re-using variables, etc?

I would be surprised if, using a sample group of say 100 beginner programmers, the majority found Haskell easier to learn and write beginner stuff in than JavaScript, python, or insert-primarily-imperative-language-here.
