Some minor, but really neat secrets of the Game Gear Micro.

https://game.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/interview/1277947.html
This comes from an interview with Yousuke Okunari from Sega and M2 staff members in a Game Watch article. The interview's in Japanese, but the really interesting stuff can be easily read via Google Translate. The most interesting stuff:
Other random details:
For what's essentially a novelty toy that isn't leaving Japan, M2 sure did go above and beyond here, as far as emulation and features are concerned.

Vivox Proximity voice chat
https://preview.redd.it/abyc6obsea531.png?width=948&format=png&auto=webp&s=9ff2290b8e108503dac940c7691fd8e78c9320b3
We added Vivox proximity voice chat to the game. Now you can talk with your fellow citizens about the latest news, in town debates or just barter with them directly. The chat is based on proximity, so you’ll only hear people that are near to you. Of course, you can also disable the voice chat completely or mute specific players. With that, we also introduced a new face animation for people talking.

Reworked controls for vehicles

On popular request we have improved and redesigned the controls for the excavators and skid steers and made sure they are explained understandably. The excavator got a new UI toolbar, you can look around freely in both skidsteer and excavator now, the skidsteer tool is now activated by default when you mount it and we changed how the general controls work. They also should work much better than before for mining purposes, though they still need some further polish.

Performance
Demo video https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EhzRYzZvCyR5GJHY9CGsvesuh8TuSiA7/view

Being well aware of the performance problems we have done a lot of work to improve the matter. Starting with this update you should see highly increased performance in chunkloading, especially for faster computers, so driving with a truck should no longer make you fall through the world. We also fixed several potential causes for memory leaks and performance should no longer degrade as much over time as it did in the prior version. We also improved performance when loading the minimap, claiming land and closing the map while it is still loading. We still have quite a way to go, which we’ll do in the next update 8.3 and all the updates thereafter.

Improvements

FUNHAUS 2017 SUBREDDIT SURVEY RESULTS

FUNHAUS SUBREDDIT SURVEY RESULTS 2017

Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lvo5RF2I5te6YP97hqNAzKSgwQiXNX3ap20Hf7IqZTg/edit?usp=sharing
Last year 2201 of you filled out the survey, this year the number has more than 2x that amount. Thanks you guys for participating and some of you for sharing (forsakenvow and anyone else). Also thanks for the feedback and guiding me with respect to some of the questions.
The results below could be a good indicator for the sub as a whole, I've outlined the major percentages.

Q1.01: What is your age range?

51.2% are between 20-24 27.0% are between 15-19 16.7% are between 25-29 03.8% are between 30-34 
Not that surprising, since Funhaus has said they skew older. Some groups might be underestimated/overestimated because of a couple of trolls.

Q1.02: Gender

87.7% are Male 9.20% are Female 0.80% are Transgender 0.80% are Non Binary 1.20% are other 
Again, not much of a surprise here. From last year, it seems like a decrease in female percentage (10.3% last year).

Q1.03: Sexuality

83.4% are Straight 10.2% are Bisexual 02.6% are Homosexual 02.3% are Other 01.5% are Queer 
Last year we had 2.1% of respondents being homosexual. Maybe James "Alpha Gay" Willems had an effect on the population. Also there are more people answering as Bisexual than last year.

Q1.04: Country

53.8% are from USA 13.4% are from the UK (Includes made up countries like Scotland and Wales) 06.0% are Australian 08.1% are Canadian (Thank Elyse for the increase) **And we have 2 North Korean fans! That's half as many from last year! Uhoh, what happened to the other 2?** 

Q2.01: Do you mainly watch Funhaus (as opposed to other channels)?

84.7% said Yes 15.3% said No 
Not really indicative of the whole since its only for the Funhaus subreddit. Maybe the other portion of the population watch more of other channels.

Q2.02: When did you start watching?

51.0% started from launch 05.5% started 1 week after launch 11.3% started within a month after launch 18.6% started within a year of the launch 13.6% started a year from launch 
Last year 64.7% watched from launch, there is a possibility that there are a lot of newer fans

Q2.03: Favourite Show?

20.5% said Openhaus 27.6% said Demo Disk 06.9% said Dude Soup 14.4% said Random Gameplay 06.5% said Wheelhaus 04.2% said Twits & Crits 
Not a surprise, this sub loves the openhaus and demo disk. Looks like Dude Soup is losing popularity and from the 2 GTA videos we get on Thursday, 4.8% prefer the Race/death match ones versus the mission ones. Also, I fucked up. I should have included Google Trends, which 40 of you entered (and is probably underestimated because Other isn't always the best option). I'm sorry guys there are a lot of series and I'll have to do better to stay on top of them!

Q2.04: What is your favourite series?

22% liked Hitman 3.9% liked WWE 3.1% liked Golf and Minigolf related videos 2.9% liked Drunk Gameplay (which is a series, I guess?) 2.2% liked FAKK (2.2% also liked FAKK) 1.3% liked Overwatch 1.3% liked Raven's Cry and most of you answered N/A and non FH series (like Chaser) 
Seems like Hitman is a classic. There was a bit of confusion in the answers but I guess I should have specified better.

Q2.05 What is your Favourite RT/AH show FH has been involved in?

22.6% chose ELR 20.8% chose LP Network collaborations 16.4% chose Off Topic 17.0% chose Other (Mostly On The Spot) 
I fucked up here too, should have had On The Spot. Sorry guys. Looks like ELR is the king. I thought it was super fun too.

Q2.06: Where do you mainly watch?

86% on Youtube 14% on RT Site 
Seems like a bit of growth on the RT site side (last year 10% of respondents watched on RT)

Q2.07: Are you a RT First Member?

62.3% say No 32.4% say Yes 05.3% say Yes (On Trial Version) 
Last year 24% were First Members and 2.5% were on a trial version. Thank Twits and Crits and the Post Show!

Q2.08: Do you watch the livestreams?

76.9% say No 23.1% say Yes 
Little bit of an increase from last year. Not much.

Q2.09: Favourite Current Personality

29.6% for Elyse 22.4% for James 19.0% for Adam 13.7% for Bruce 9.5% for Lawrence 
Elyse usurped James as the most popular current member. Of course, Benson would be number one so the question actually asked who the 2nd favourite was but I didn't type that in. Oops.

Q2.10: Favourite of all past/present members (Some people might have used to pick 2nd fav)

22.2% for James 21.5% for Elyse 18.0% for Adam 11.5% for Bruce 10.6% for Joel 
The numbers got weird here, I guess some people used this to pick their 2nd fav like they did last year. Also, Elyse lost her lead because I guess between the two, a lot of her votes went to the more feminine one (kidding! love you Joel). Pretty much a decrease in everyone due to nostalgia. Seems like people also missed Joel more than Spoole (4.6%).

Q2.11: Which Editor's do you want to see more of in productions?

#1 Peake #2 Don #3 Jacob 
The rest of the editors: Omar, Bones, Jon, and Dan all had about 1/3 of respondents wish to see more of them. I allowed more than one selection, but I wonder what would happen if people had to choose.

Q2.12: What Social Media Platform do you use to follow FH?

Nothing too surprising. most of you follow their personal channels, Reddit accounts, Twitter and then the other stuff like Instagram, snapchat, etc. 
This might have been a useless question as well.

Q2.13: Who would you watch if they (or were to) stream?:

Nothing too surprising. The Willems, Kovic, Bruce, and Lawrence have a big following. 
It seems like most of you would like to watch Elyse and Matt Peake each do a solo stream. People also would love if Don streamed.

Q2.14: Were you a fan of IG?

46.9% say Yes 28.8% say they watched some, not a regular fan 24.3% say No 
Last year over 50% were IG fans, seems like it could be new fans (I erroneously said that old fans were leaving)

Q2.15: Do you watch other RT productions?

49.7% say Yes (Some) 28.6% say Yes (Most) 17.3% say No 4.4% sat Yes (All) 
Seems like there was an increase in RT views, but I feel like the question might be a bit silly now considering the increased amount of content RT puts out.

Q2.16: What other RT related channels do you watch?

77.0% watch Main Channel (RT) 64.6% watch LP 64.5% watch AH 56.3% watch Slow Mo Guys 30.9% watch The Know 22.7% watch RvB 04.8% watch Screw Attack 00.9% watch Game Kids 
Seems like RT viewership has gone up, Know Watchers are half what they used to be (understandable) and AH/LP watchers have decreased (also understandable).

Q2.17: What LP Network Channels do you watch?

79.4% watch Cow Chop 17.4% watch Kinda Funny 17.1% watch Game Attack 06.6% watch The Creatures 
Seems like a Cow Chop collaboration could be good for the channel. The humour is a bit different so it'd be interesting to see.

Q2.18: Who would you like to see Funhaus collab with?

17.5% ask for more Cow Chop (On Amazon show or Google Trends/Demo Disk) 06.0% ask for more Suptic 05.0% ask for more Rahul Kohli 03.7% ask for more Game Grumps (Demo Disk or Google Trends) 02.6% ask for more AH 02.0% ask for H3H3 
Other frequent names are Cr1tikal, Dunkey, Obama, Joel, Kinda Funny, Mega64, Sark. It got a bit tough when people put in multiple names, but it seems like Cow Chop, Suptic, and Kohli are the most popular.

Q3.01: Do you play video games?

97.1% say Yes 02.9% say No 

Q3.02: How many hours/week do you game?

22.5% say 6-10 17.5% say 0-5 18.6% say 11-15 14.6% say 16-20 09.0% say 21-25 

Q3.03: What platforms do you game on

78.5% play on PC 37.3% play on PS4 30.2% play on Xbox One 20.5% play on NDS/3DS 13.0% play on Xbox 360 10.3% play on Switch 09.6% play on PS3 08.0% play on Wii U 05.1% play on Other 04.4% play on Wii 
I might just get rid of this section, or at least the last question where I ask what people own. I don't know if its useful information.

Suggested improvements for 2018.

Please let me know of any and I will use them for next year if I choose to hold the survey again. 

THANK YOU ALL FOR PARTICIPATING

The era of artificial intelligence: how robots manage capital

The era of artificial intelligence: how robots manage capital
Interview with Alexander Tatarsky, creator of the quantum fund
How well do you know artificial intelligence? Perhaps you have never heard of it, or maybe it’s quite the opposite and robots are already managing your capital.
We were able to interview Alexander Tatarsky — an experienced trader, co-founder and financial director of the Mercury Foundation — a fund that manages capital through A.I.! Alexander introduced us to the concept of his organization and explained the unique idea behind the project.

https://preview.redd.it/bulvn62tuw021.jpg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7c6357c83fe7c7afd904a8e9718447801fbdc8a1
Alexander, why did you start trading? How did you start and why did you decide to choose this particular field?
Many people know that the Chinese word “crisis” consists of two hieroglyphs. One means “danger”, and the other one — “opportunity.” I considered a global financial crisis of 2008 an opportunity. That’s when I began my professional career in the financial markets. Before those events, I was always very interested in economics (thanks to my economic education!) and financial markets, but I focused on 2 aspects: first is financial markets as an instrument of global management of peoples and their well-being, second — financial markets as an example of the fundamental laws of nature. I always wanted to get closer to understanding the essence of these processes.
However, until 2008, I was just a curious observer. I read books, watched major events, learned to compare facts. I was running a business that had nothing to do with the markets. The events of 2008 encouraged me to make my first profitable deals. And then I realized that this field is not only about self-development and curiosity — it could also become a source of permanent income. With the right approach, this income can be much higher than in other sectors of the economy. So the choice was made.
What were the reasons for creating an Investment Foundation managed by artificial intelligence?
Anyone who is professionally engaged in money management considers automation at some point. Computers are much more efficient than human when it comes to assets management. Robots are taking over, so it was a logical step for us. From the very beginning, we realized the inferiority of the ready-made solutions on the market and did not even consider using other people’s services. We could use the A.I, and we did. It was actually not even a question, it’s like asking an artist — why are you painting? Because we are the best at managing money.
What is the market share (in particular, on cryptocurrency market) of the investment funds (including funds managed by artificial intelligence) and how do you handle the demand?
If we talk about traditional financial markets, then, according to the latest data, the share of investment funds in the total volume of transactions amounts to 70%. At the same time, quantum funds account for at least 27% of all transactions on US exchanges. As for the cryptocurrency market, they are so riddled with fraud and unrealized projects that we have long since ceased to care about the competitors.
There are many ordinary funds, but 80% of them close in a year and 95% of them — in three. We do not consider them competitors, as we are focused on long-term work. All their clients will eventually come to us. In long-term, the manual traders do not stand a chance against the robot.
Are there any companies similar to yours in the world?
Yes, sure. In our industry, only a few succeeded in achieving the degree of automation that we have. The most successful of our colleagues use qualitatively different algorithms that still require regular manual testing and customization. In most cases, those “algorithm factories” constantly have to adapt to the new market conditions. Our algorithms require human participation only at the development stage. Simply put, in most cases, operators with remote controls always follow their robots, but our robot can walk on its own.
The market offers a huge number of different robots that promise to increase your capital in Forex, binary options, cryptocurrency. How are you different from them? Is it possible to earn money with such robots?
Yes, certainly. If you are good at trading and investing. If you have clear money management rules backed by math. If not, you can only lose. And robots have one more limitation — they cannot bring you the profit all the time. Such robots offer a huge number of strategies, half of which is profitable, and the other half is not. Because a person is ultimately responsible for choosing strategies. That is, it is not the robot that makes the decisions, but the user who sets the trading rules. In some cases, it helps to earn quickly, and in others — to lose quickly. Such robots do not guarantee earnings, they only ensure fast trading. We have a radically different approach. Bruce Lee said: “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who had practiced one kick 10,000 times”. Therefore, instead of ten thousand strategies, we have been developing only one strategy for several years.
The robots you are talking about are the first level. There are many of them and to me they are useless. Among our competitors, there are funds that trade in traditional markets using second-level robots. There are not many of them, but they all deliver consistently good results. One of the leaders in our industry is the Medallion Foundation, created by Renaissance Technologies. For several decades, their mathematical model has been continuously multiplying their capital.
We consistently implement the same model of asset management, completely removing a person from decision-making process. Development will take a few more years, but even now, our robot is already trading at the professional level. The robot needs a person only for controlling and learning new functions.
Some believe that technical analysis does not apply to cryptocurrency, what do you think about this statement?
I actually do not care; it is rather a question of how competent is the person who said this. If it works for you, you can use it. I think you will agree that a professional can play even on one string, and the amateur can find a thousand reasons to give up. The only thing I can do is ask in return — what can the market offer instead of technical analysis? Intuitive news trading? Fundamental analysis? Neural network?
Technical analysis is a complex discipline and it takes a lot of time and mental strength to fully master it. It could take a trader 10 years to learn it. Not everyone succeeds, so technical analysis does not work for everyone.
I favor a more specific approach: if it doesn’t work for someone, they should figure out why, because it is working for us quite well.
Where does your Foundation operate?
We advertise ourselves as a global foundation. In today’s world, good business has to be global. Among our clients are representatives of the Russian Federation, the European Union, Great Britain and China. We continue to expand our reach. As for trade, over the next 6 months we will be able to manage capital on all largest exchanges of the world.
Why is there a minimum deposit amount of $ 10,000?
There are several reasons. First, we need funds to maintain client accounts. We do not charge a monthly fee, only a percentage of the profits. Therefore, the size of the deposit has a lower limit.
Second, $10k is not much for our target audience. It also acts as a filter that shows the solvency and how serious the intentions of a potential client are. We do not target the mass market and do not deal with dumping. On the contrary, we provide long-term, high-quality services for those who can afford it.
Third, the robot independently manages risks and simultaneously controls all portfolios. We don’t like it if someone can’t enter the position because the share calculated for him by the robot is not allowed on the exchange due to restrictions.
Are there any differences in the management of different amounts of investment? If yes, what are they and are there any similarities in the management of investments of one quantitative segment?
Our job is to describe all the differences with strict mathematical formulas and test them thousands of times under all possible conditions. Therefore, there is no big difference for us between a 5 mln purchase or 5k purchase. Everything is described, tested, calculated, everything works.
Differences in the management of large capital are even more drastic. The psychological factor in this case becomes critical. The same trader managing a demo account or a million dollar account will behave like two completely different people and make fundamentally different decisions. Our task is to completely eliminate the human factor from the money management process.
What are the chances for new instruments to get into the Foundation’s portfolio? What is the basis of the selection of certain tools? Are there any common priority tools for different segments of investors?
Any promising liquid instrument can be included in the portfolio of the Foundation, and the choice depends on many factors. The robot evaluates and filters the instrument on the basis of special algorithms and determines the share of an asset in the portfolio based on the results of the evaluation. All decisions must be mathematically justified, taking into account the analysis of the maximum possible amount of data. The more data on the instrument we have, the higher the quality of the decisions made and the share of the instrument in the portfolio. The choice does not depend on the category of investor. If the instrument is promising and liquid, all our clients will get profit.
Can you tell more about the terms of settlements between the Foundations and investors?
If someone in our market guarantees you a good profit and even specifies when you could get it, then I in turn guarantee that this is a fraud. We are most interested in customer profits, as this is the only way to offset the costs of managing his account. Imagine the following situation:
The new client opened a 10k deposit and a month later, he had a total of 12k in his account. At the beginning of next month, we will ask you to transfer us 1k as a fee. 11k remains on his account, but a month later, suppose, unsuccessful deals were made and there is 10k on his account again. In this case, we do not require any payments until the deposit exceeds 11k.
Suppose a month later he has 12k again. Then we will charge 50% of the difference between 11k and 12k, i.e. $500. The fact that the entire team of our foundation has long transferred the management of all its assets to our robot could also count as a guarantee. We have a direct motivation to make trading as successful as possible. We do not use the services of other funds or managers. And the second fact is that the portfolios of all clients, including our personal ones, are managed simultaneously.
Can you share the success stories of the Foundation?
We want to implement a demo account for this purpose. We plan to fill it with transactions and statistics from 2017, copied from real accounts, but without disclosing personal data. The demo-account will include a history of the average client from the beginning of 2017.
It will explain how the robot trades and what profit you can expect from it.
Do you believe that private investors, to some extent, are competitors to investment funds? What, in your opinion, is it more efficient and profitable: being a private investor or investing with funds?
No, we consider them not competitors, but clients. The vast majority of our clients already have experience in investing. Beginners often think they are the smartest, that they don’t need to pay someone 50% of the income when they can easily buy and sell themselves. I admit that in the short run a private investor can earn more than a robot — but definitely not over a long period. The robot ensures a stable result day after day, year after year, while people are prone to stress, illness and psychological weakness.
Also, funds, compared with private investors, have more compelling ratio of risk and return. At some time, a private investor may gain the same profit as a fund. However, the fund will achieve the same profit with much less risk. My money is controlled by a robot, although I believe in my capabilities as a trader.
Does the Foundation have an affiliate program?
Yes, we have an affiliate program, and at the same time, we are interested in collaborating with specialists for mutually beneficial cooperation. For example, we could consider providing service for the service for really good experts in design, advertising and marketing. If you have such specialists, let them send me their proposals and CVs. See contact details on our website.
What kind of future do you see for ordinary investment funds and funds like the Mercury Foundation?
It is clear to me that the share of funds managed by robots will grow steadily. Most likely, in a couple of decades only old-timers will manage money manually.
Robotization applies to all spheres of life and investment has already come into play. For example, the head of Japan’s Government Pension Investment Fund — the world’s largest pension fund — believes that artificial intelligence will soon completely replace asset managers. And I fully agree with him.
And the largest hedge fund Bridgewater Associates is developing a decision-making algorithm that can replace all management personnel over time.
How do you look at the cryptocurrency market from a global perspective? Will the Bitcoin climb to 20,000$ again? And what will happen to the altcoins?
If we talk about the long term prospect, like 3–5–7–10 years, then I’ll say that today we see the early stage of the cryptocurrency market. Over time, its capitalization will be measured in trillions of dollars. The best projects of this field will become an integral part of our lives. Many of them will become new Google, Facebook, Apple and Amazon.
However, this will happen gradually. In order to become a mature sector of the economy, this market will have to go through many challenges. It will face issues of legislative regulation and technical problems. The scaling and bandwidth issues of most networks are still relevant, as well as legal issues. Most states are just beginning to explore the risks and opportunities associated with these technologies. And the promotion of such technologies is still very dependent on states and supranational bodies. If we talk about the short and medium terms, the prospects are not very bright.
I think that in the near future the bitcoin will certainly not reach the 20,000$ mark. We are witnessing the strongest bear market and must act accordingly. The time for positive medium-term forecasts has not yet come. The industry was severely overcrowded in 2017. There was too much hot money, many economically unfeasible projects and excessively high expectations. The market will need time to stabilize and consolidate. Most likely, we are in for a rather complicated and dangerous period of instability in the market. Obviously, this will be accompanied by some cleansing of the market from weak, incompetent and unclaimed participants.
This is a necessary stage on the path towards development. I think that 80% of altcoins known to us will depreciate and disappear in the next year or two for objective reasons. It will be a time of natural selection. However, strong players will only strengthen their positions in the market. Unfortunately, there will not be many of them. Therefore, in the near future, all investors will need to take a good care of the management of their portfolios. Despite the rather grim short-term and medium-term expectations, there will be some positive developments on the market. Some cryptocurrencies are likely to exceed their all-time peaks next year. And some will just look stronger than the market. This will be enough to generate profitability even under such difficult conditions. Therefore, the main task for the near future is to manage risks in a competent and very conservative manner and select the best ones on the market for investments.
From a professional point of view, what would you wish to partners of our club?
Depends on their goals. If they invest for the sake of emotions, then I wish them good luck and health. If they do it to earn money, I advise you to consult with professionals. This applies not only to investments, but also to any area of life. If you want the task to be solved as accurately as possible — always contact the best professionals available. And always keep learning. Your knowledge is your most reliable asset.
What books would you recommend for beginner traders?
If you decide that you are ready to turn trading into your profession, then start eagerly exploring everything available to you. Everything about financial markets, about macroeconomics, about psychology, about analysis and forecasting. Do not forget that money management skills play a huge role here. Ralph Vince will help you figure it out. Even if your analysis of the markets is very good, you will lose everything eventually if your money management skills are subpar. Now is a great time to learn, you have hundreds and thousands of books available on all aspects of this profession. Someone will enjoy the works of John J. Murphy or Jack Schwager, someone will learn from William D. Gann or Robert Prechter. And remember: knowledge is more important than capital!
We thank Alexander for such a detailed story about the Foundation, as well as for his sincere desire to share his opinions and forecasts. If you want to entrust the management of your funds to the Mercury Foundation, type “I want to invest in the Mercury Foundation” in the personal messages of the group.

ExpertOption Review

Compared to other binary options brokers out in the market, ExpertOption is relatively new but is starting to gain traction among established traders. As a trading platform, the website is under the supervision of the Russian FMMRC, with the license number TSRF RU 0395 AA Vv0084.
We reviewed this trading platform, and based on the initial data and experience that we have collected, we can say that we are satisfied with the results. Our initial thoughts is that this trading platform can work for beginners, or those who want to start small in trading.

ExpertOption Trading Software

The user interface is easy to understand, and provides guidance to traders on how to perform the trades. The platform also provides choices when it comes to assets like indices, currency pairs and commodities like crude oil and gold. The only concern here is that traders are only offered short term expiry times. There is also an app that can be downloaded on iOS, and an app for Android devices are expected to follow.
As a broker, ExpertOption is known to deliver a number of promising features. But one should keep in mind that the type of services that can be enjoyed will depend on the type of account opened with the website. There are four different types of accounts that customers can consider. Each account has its own set of features and benefits, and we recommend that the interested trader should check each option and the features that come with it.
One of the things that you will notice with the platform is the comprehensive explanation of the bonus terms, and this can be read in the website’s Terms section. These bonuses are subject to x50 turnover before the said amount can be withdrawn. Also, the operator gives its members the opportunity to reverse the bonus, but this can be done before placing any trade after collecting the bonus. With ExpertOption, anyone can start small with its $1 minimum trade. This minimal entry fee can help new traders test the market before pushing ahead with large deposits and trades.

Popular Features

The platform used on the website is developed primarily by ExpertOption, which is in contrast with the other trading platforms that make use of the software designed by others. The proprietary software is easy to understand, and can work for both the new traders and experienced ones. The software is loaded with features that can allow traders to complete technical tasks, which can then boost profits and streamline online transactions. Here are other top features and tools that you can enjoy as a member of ExpertOption.
  1. Presence of a Demo Account. There’s a demo account available, and this does not require a download. As soon as you register an account, you will be provided access to this demo account with $1,000 in virtual money. When we tested the demo account, we found out that the account features larger-than-usual profit figures, which is a bad thing since it is conditioning the minds of the traders that they can profit big-time with this platform. We see this as a marketing ploy yo motivate traders to trade real money.
  2. Access to training and educational materials. Just like other trading platforms, ExpertOption also gives its members access to helpful resources that can be used for training. These resources and tools are posted on the site’s Education section. The materials that are contained here can help the beginners get a better understanding of the market and trades. You can also find a Glossary, where the important terms and technical words are explained.
  3. Mobile trading also available. There is a mobile trading platform too which can help traders complete the trades in seconds. The app is available on the Google Play Store or the Apple Store. The app can be downloaded to your iOS or Android phones.

Our Concerns

As a new player in the market, ExpertOption faces some tough challenges. For example, many traders see the platform as untested with no solid experience to speak of. When we tested and reviewed the platform, we are also concerned by its inexperience in handling trades. To help the management improve their services, we have listed some of the things that can be improved on the website.

Jack of all trades, Master of none tips?

TL;DR: I had no idea that it'd be this long or that it took 4 hours to type(ADD for you :P). Below is last 4 years journey into programming as a profession with a bunch of unlucky breaks along the way. I've developed a wide range(mostly by circumstance rather than choice) of dev/IT skills but none of them feel strong enough for me to land a regular dev/IT job. I lack relevant degree and the roles that I do get pay min wage for me to do a vast amount of things on my own, I'm in my thirties and want to change that, advice?
Adobe AIFlash - ActionScript on mobile platforms Bit of a background. Sunk myself into a bunch of debt studying for something I was interested(art/design related) in but didn't really have much work opportunities in my country at the time. After graduating(2012) and job hunting for about 8 months, my job at the time(4 years in), I got a call from Learning and Development department about a small flash game I made when I started at the company(I had been doing light programming with flash mostly as a hobby since 2004). So they brought me on to do an e-learning project, I had been playing with Starling(GPU accelerated) which made Adobe AIR on mobiles actually viable. Over the span of a year I learnt a bunch and optimized the app pretty well, going as far as to improve the bitmap font renderer to chunk paragraph of texts effectively when scrolling(ok, performance with flash was still pretty poor in some areas even with the GPU :p), I had tried to push heavy text content to be delivered by PDFs but management was against it. That work benefited since I modified the parser to include symbols/images or interactive content within the text document(all loaded externally for easy edits without compilation by staff, built a basic template engine with some pooling). Anyway, this was all under the table and once it was done to the point of proving itself as successful in field tests I was given the boot ha.
Decided if I can't get hired for what I'm qualified in, I'll get out of my job(actual one without the flash dev) and make my hobby into a career. Welp, thanks to Steve Jobs flash dev demand had really gone downhill(probably a good thing for me).
Exploring new territory - Software Testing Got into a short course that was on software testing, it was poorly taught, I was confused about one thing and told I was wrong, mocked by tutor and students, later to find out through leading industry professionals that were regulars in a google group, that I was actually the one who was right.... That course then had some "test" with little information to assist us that you'd expect on the job(couldn't get answers to any basic questions) to test and find bugs on some poor quality foreign website(supposedly actual free/paid work for the tutors clients/friends). It had gotten to a point I saw no value in it, left the course to teach myself online. Passed the ISTQB exam, went to meetup groups, wasn't really digging the career path(job hunt wise, there wasn't much opportunities based on the piece of paper and basic skills I had, most were after mid/senior or some other complimentary skill). During meetups automated testing sounded interesting though. Overall course was not worth 2k it was charging(didn't pay this though as was government funded initiative due to shortage in software testers....right).
Exploring new territory - C# Tried another short course, this one offered free entry with basic programming skills on the basis you'd make payments towards $5k once you secured a job through the education provider. Sounded great, time to learn C#! Again ran into some quality issues, the tutor who was a Senior dev made multiple poor choices that I questioned, I lost interest/faith once we got to the "group" project at the end, I didn't participate beyond reviewing the code by students and advising on where things could be improved. There was a voluntary project for a real company doing a presentation at a TEDx event, it even had a small 3 figure payment on completion. Three other students also volunteered and I was made lead. I had never touched HTML/JS/CSS before beyond viewing source of pages when I was young. The project involved tweening tweets on a big display in realtime and doing some colour transitions(radial gradient BG) based on colour associated to the hashtag paired with the event tag, and a few other features. I had a good idea how to handle that and confident due to my design studies so took the role none of the other devs wanted, assigned two to the backend and another to a simple bootstrap UI for the iPad(feature dropped as they were unable to deliver declining any help I offered). One of the backend devs did a PHP implementation but dropped out for personal reasons halfway through, the other student tried their best and got some assistance via the tutor to reimplement in C# with SQL(we had to support replays with a timescale for speakers to see how their talk was received.), I assisted where I could but was rather swamped on my end with several unexpected issues that cropped up. I ended up pulling an 80 hour week including being flown to the city the event was held at to provide on-call support.... which was required as someones tweet crashed the database!). At one point I had to quickly make a change to the site with no access to a computer nearby, I FTP'd to the webserver and edited the files on my slow 4 year old android phone. Overall great success, but I found myself really enjoying web dev over C# and microsoft technologies. The class all thought I'd be the first to get a job, I was probably one of the last :)
Self teaching myself web development I spent the next year and a half learning as much as I could about web development, unemployed I would often wake up and read until it was time to sleep, trying out some coding(though not as much as I probably should have done), most of the time it was building an understanding of various topics, analysis paralysis with the abundance of choice which was numbing compared to my ActionScript/Flash days and forming opinions to settle on and learn more about based on my own interests, what I believed/understood to be worth the time or was in demand by employers(didn't buy into PHP or AngularJS despite their job demand), I got into Node.JS and ES6. I wanted to play with Vagrant and Docker, graph databases like Neo4j, NoSQL like MongoDB, different frontend frameworks and tools(as well as the ones with node.js like express/koa, gulp, phantomjs, webpack, etc), template engines, mapbox(similar to google maps), ansible/salt and more. I figured I'd start with something small like doing the backend of the TEDx project with NodeJS and Mongo instead.
Job hunting Often when opportunities presented themselves however, I'd completely drop what I'm doing/learning and try to make the most of those(income or job application tests). Most employers through HR or agencies would turn me down due to no related degree, I'd be told I am not passionate or serious about a career as a developer. The growing gap in employment surely wasn't helping either! I had some success with an application/interview spanning over 2 months for a large company with a web department. I had made it down to the final 5 candidates, my technical test didn't pan out the best, I completely understood the answers the ended up wanting but was having difficulty arriving their based on what they were saying and expecting me to say. This was for a position that would take 3 hours to get their via transport with a mandatory 8am start. I figured if I could land the role I'd be able to move nearby in a month or so. Declined but offered an internship for 3 months to develop a dashboard to track metrics and produce a report. I asked some questions such as will I be responsible for the whole development, can I make my own choices on tech or can we leverage existing solutions instead of from scratch, would I have a mentosupervisor that I can get guidance from if needed). I was told if I have to ask questions like that I'm not right for the job and lost my chance at the internship..
Take a break from web studies/job-searching doing Lua game mods and some Python Little disheartened after the long job hunt and study getting no where, I didn't seem able to compete. I took a break from it all and started creating mods for a popular FPS co-op game. I also created a basic level editor earlier that year that imported the game data(JSON) into Maya(3D content program) with Python, then adjust it or import your own additions and export via Python to Lua that my Lua mod would import and allow for custom levels or other fun spawning prefabs. I decided to take on a challenge and do what no one else had luck with, increasing the max amount of players permitted in a networked level. I probably spent far too much time on that, got something tangible by December, and later in 2016 spent all 4 days of my easter weekend finishing it up for release, it was very popular within the community. Guides, discussions and youtube video's appeared for a while....but this work didn't seem like it'd help with securing a job in where I had put my efforts.
Transitioned from Windows to Linux full time After new years, my laptop running windows 8.1 wouldn't boot, the bootloader corrupted. Turns out it was due to fastboot feature having a random chance to cause that, I spent about 2 days trying to troubleshoot it with my phone browser. The solutions I came across were of no help, I booted into a live CD of linux and backed up what files I could to an external drive. Might as well get back into linux I thought so time to install Ubuntu and see what's changed since 2008. Lots of fun problems to solve, from installers with UEFI compatibility issues(had to learn to change this in BIOS), to installers giving me a black screen because my GTX960m didn't yet have proper support in Nouveau. Not long in I learn about QEMU/KVM for virtualizing Windows on top of linux with near native performance (93-98%) with full access to the GPU via passthrough. Sounds fun, so I learn a bunch and write notes, but there is quite a bit of difficulty following the various sources where some information is useful but others not, decide I might as well convert my notes into a decent markdown blogpost to help others out. By the end of it I had switched to Arch Linux and learnt that despite all other hardware meeting requirements, the mobile GPU writes to the Intel iGPU framebuffer. Accomplishing this at the time was not going to happen :( Continued use of linux especially with Arch involved quite a bit of maintenance and learning.
4 years since initial graduation got my first official dev job at a startup The guy I developed the TEDx project for reached out to me offering work at his Startup. Hell yeah a job, my bank account will finally see something positive :) Unfortunately it wasn't doing web development, but there were two devs working there already and I get paid to code fun IoT/home automation project stuff! Got a computer purchased at local store for me to put together and use that very day. Set it up to run Arch like I have at home, was comfortable in it now and it seemed pretty good for doing dev work on. Those two other devs didn't stick around for long, one was still doing CompSci at uni, they had been working on a Xamarin app to control the various devices in the office with, but kept running into bizarre issues. I didn't know Xamarin or C# well but pitched in where I could, some problems that troubled him were a breeze for me to solve. The other one was a recent graduate doing web development on contract, "cool!" I thought. Unfortunately neither knew how to use git, or familiar with Agile practices, nor cared much for documentation.. I was confused why the web developer used plain CSS and jQuery with all their code in a single JS file. Their HTML was based off some bootstrap template with heavy copy/paste instead of a templated languaged that would avoid the DRYness....little did I know I'd have to later do some maintenance on this without being authorized to fix it since it was functionally working to management and not worth time to refactor for future maintenance work.
Saved company a bunch of money While working there, I learnt a proprietary solution we were using, wrote documentation for it for future developers, multiple times I tried to communicate problems with that vendors software and better alternatives available while being told "deal with it, it's the best in the industry"(without any backing statistics/tests). It wasn't until the issues become glaringly obvious and the high costs to go forward with it(we were on an evaluation license) that management listened to the voice of reason. I did some research so I could back up my claims and presented a very popular and actively developed plus sponsored open source project. I spent time getting familiar with it and how to set it up, what drawbacks/limitations might exist(some features needed work but I believed I could contribute what was needed to get it on par), documenting and being sure that it was a solid replacement among the many other benefits it had going for it over the proprietary vendor solution.
Making tech choices On top of that, I picked up React-Native and Redux which was great to work with using ES6, as a solo developer with what I assume was not an ordinary workload being able to share the same codebase for both iOS and Android(plus any other supported platforms) was a great boon, the performance and dev features/speed were great compared to my other options. The choice also mixed great with my NodeJS background I had been building up prior to the job. I felt I made the right choice, setup some backend services to communicate with the larger open source project with our own additions over websockets to the mobile app. I designed the MVP app similar to my e-learning app from previous work but using JSON instead of YAML, and the JSON was generated/cached based on DB queries. The design gave a modulaflexible UI that adapted between phone and tablet.
Getting familiar with embedded IoT dev with C After that we had a business opportunity to pursue. An electronics engineer reverse engineered some products communication protocol, providing serial connection details and hex codes. It was my job to put together some hardware(Arduino) that would eavesdrop on that communication to the devices touchpad controller and allow us to control the device via the Arduino. I enjoyed learning about some protocols like InfraRed in an earlier project but this was a step up for me, I had never worked with C and struggled with the lack of features I take for granted with scripting/dynamic languages. Parsing the binary/hex output into packets and verifying/identifying them and responding with the correct timing was the biggest hurdle for me. I only had one UART serial connection to work with, having to manually switch between listen/send, with limited buffer for the bytes as well as not blocking the device from updating it's controller and keeping that controller responsive while still being able to inject our own instructions as if we were the controller or device providing updates. Debugging I had no idea how to go about, this was hardware, not what I'm used to where I have breakpoints in code and can view the current state. I did naive debugging with text logging via serial, but this was a bad idea since processing that affected timing causing more bugs! :D It was semi viable in some situations as long as the string was minimal, error codes instead of descriptions or long values.
Feelings of success I got that embedded IoT project to work as we wanted in the end, being controlled by the NodeJS server or mobile phone app, we demo'd the product to the company that owns/sells the device product and they loved it and were amazed at what we achieved. This was a client with big money and international business. I know my code wasn't great but I learnt this and pulled it off in a reasonably short time, I felt proud of this milestone, a company like that being so impressed and seeing value in what I had done almost entirely by myself(didn't have the reverse engineering chops yet). So this was going to go ahead, I enjoyed the project and wanted to learn more so I read up a bunch on MCUs and SBCs, sensors and the like to get a good feel what is out there, what we could do with them, flexible designs for a product so we could provide a similar service for other companies. Management wasn't too happy with their sole developer being distracted by such education efforts and wanted me to focus on other tasks(I did a bunch of this after work in spare time as it really interested me, side note I have a problem where I get rather consumed with what I work on/learn, I'll chalk it up to my ADD). I had done my job creating the MVP, negotiations were to go ahead, so I'm moved back to the core product.
Craving to learn more Management wants to begin beta testing on some hardware they're ordering(small headless servers), anyone(company members only at present) beta testing the product will have to fork out a few hundred for this themselves. I state we could totally test on considerably cheaper hardware with SBCs like Pi's, CHIP($9) or Pine64($29) for example...get the usual no stay out of it. Week or so later hardware arrives.
Linux, filesystems, automation and network installs My next task is to install an OS onto these machines that have no monitor output or keyboard/mouse. Automated PXE install(never actually done it before) sounds good, problem is the network availability from these machines were unreliable on boot. Ran into a few issues, but after learning about PXE(which turned out not to be viable), I came across iPXE. We got a new batch of machines, these newer models BIOS didn't support iPXE like the older ones....burned iPXE image to USB, got a serial console setup and chainloaded the kernel and initial ramdisk over an http server via ipxe script. Had issues with Debian/preseed/drivers but openSUSE went pretty well(planned to later use AutoYast with Ansible to automate the whole thing and get it all in git for traceability). BTRFS on a small SSD though(openSUSE default partition) wasn't a good idea as I soon found myself running out of space, thankfully I had been reading up on the various filesystems with pros/cons prior, especially on BTRFS knowing that was the default and how it's quite different from the usual ones(read about it often on news blogs I follow for years). Dealt with the issue but had some other problems that seemed BTRFS specific with Docker(deploying projects with Docker for the benefits it brings), decided initially I'll stick to what I'm most familiar with EXT4 and repartitioned. Documented, investigated, filed issues along the way.
Burnout, "developers are a dime a dozen", am I cut out for this professionally During that job I had stressed myself into a burnout, I've left out many other things especially on those that I looked into heavily but didn't quite get time to implement, such as CI/CD systems for mobile apps(all planned out and decided on), dev machines(zsh with dot files and package list to install, arch and osx, mostly planned out in anticipation for new devs we were going to bring on a while back), additional projects and protocols to be clued up on, project management processes/workflow(again for new devs that didn't end up happening). I felt this was stretching myself very thin, that I wasn't getting the opportunity to grow in any particularly area for my career, I was okay in various areas and understood things well, but my coding was not to the quality/speed I'd like, I was forgetting things that I'd have to relearn. I complained to management at one point I felt this was unrealistic to expect a developer to cover so many areas(web dev, mobile dev, embedded, sysadmin/devop, design/tech decisions(architecture?), etc) as common place, and task them to frequently switch between these areas/contexts. I was told "Developers are a dime a dozen". I disagreed that anyone sane would be doing all these things for minimum wage(I did like the freedom of development choices and growing my skills, no one else wanted to hire me to code, what's a bit of sanity? ), it was becoming a problem, I didn't sign up for all of this, and thought I'd finally have other developers to work with, maybe even learn from.
Resignation. Where to now I resigned from that job after a meeting revealed how little I was valued(among other things), despite my honest belief that without my efforts they would not have been able to afford the talent needed to achieve where they are today. But now I'm back to the job hunt with an obvious lack of good reference from the company I spent half a year at. I feel I have a broad range of skills, not many employers will be interested as they advertise for more honed skillsets... I might be perfect for a startup, but I'm not fond of the chances going through previous experiences again. Do I try to promote my range of dev/IT skills or do I spend time unemployed until I'm good enough for a junior role in one skillset such as web dev? I'm in my thirties now and would like to earn more than minimum wage doing what I love.
