Occam - Current Priorities:
Gunna run through exciting things but also user complaints and what we can do to improve.
Firstly - things users aren't happy about.
1. Inconsistency in simulations
Whilst I do like to think there has been a vast improvement over the last few weeks, there are still ocassions where simulations significantly over perform actual users results, it leads to dissastification when actually running the platform, here's how I can improve it:
> Add platform fees to be included in all trade simulations
> Currently, the signal MCAP is being used as gospel. This should be changed to 'Actual Entry MCAP' which takes a TWAP from the first few blocks post entry to apply some pessimisim.
2. Metrics Health
They are too inconsistent. Frequently in the past they have died for a few days, contain results that don't make sense, or simply just don't work.
It is a monstrous task in itself, managing the health of 100+ different metrics and it'll be a task to improve this - but it's doable. Everything is always doable.
An immediate solution I propose, is some kind of tag on the metric if we are detecting an unhealthy data pipeline on it currently, or is currently dead.
Alongside a status page to also reflect these in a list so it is clear.
However, it doesn't solve the consistency problem for currently running algorithms.
For that, the uptime & data health for this really needs to improve and that is acknolwedged as a full priority, though may require a bit of time.
--------------
So, before I go onto the flashy things I think it's worth commenting on how the business should be ran.
I largely agree that before we can run, we must learn to walk.
And all the above are the key things that must be fixed for us to be able to run properly.
But equally, early days of a project being live are super important to continue momentum and sustain reason to hold the token and deliver marketing features.
Crypto is an eyeball game, and that must be sustained for us to even exist.
Newer features, e.g Anchormode - help in that.
There is a pool of users consistently DMing requesting featues like this.
And another pool looking for the sustainable foundations.
We will do our best to balance the both.
--------------
Next; Momentum Features:
1. AnchorMode
You all know what this is by now and probably just want to see results & it's release - here's our status.
We are currently running and testing hundreds of different configurations in finding things that are consistent in it's profitability amongst many different time tranches amongst many different algorithms.
This is taking slightly longer than I hoped, but the quality will be worth it in building it out much further than initially specced.
Please bare with me here whilst we finish off the system for AnchorMode to adapt & provide the best settings based off of our analysis on the algorithms you're running it on.
2. FOMO
Early days but we're looking at implementing a large chunk of metrics built around FOMO for you to build your algorithms and AutoTrade from.
Analysing their thesis, which profile has shared the thesis, their performance, who's entered in with them etc etc
Though, this will only be delivered should we see it has a positive impact & the data pipelines can be done with 100% health so you can trust it's accuracy.
3. Robinhood
Simply put - another chain, more volume, more opportunity at profitability, better platform volume, better buybacks into
$OCCAM, more eyeballs onto the business.
--------------
Tldr; so much going on, every hour of the week.
Important to acknowledge consistency & accuracy even more, whilst also keeping business & attention momentum going with flashy features.
All is being done, one step in front of the other.
All with the timeline of ASAP in mind, no slowing down.
