Over these past two years I have done a stock market analytics project. My original proposal was to make an app to track stock market data and make easy to read, anyone can read, just friendly stock advice via an iPhone application. However I think I encountered some roadblocks on various aspects, but I was able to overcome all but the iPhone app. I did not have any collaboration with anyone on my project, any help was strictly from me either asking for help or people bringing up new ideas for me. Overall I think that made this project maybe a bit harder at times but overall I think it worked well as then I was able to be in control and control how the the data was analyzed. My project leaves behind a lot of ideas for people who want to get involved in business but also tech. I think some areas people could expand upon is foreign currency, and how to better manipulate data for ones advantage. These project ideas can span from anything for use for a good cause or a bad, all depending on how they use it. I can see this project being picked up by someone who also just wants to learn how the stock market works and the ins and outs of trading and trying to figure out in a controlled environment how their predictions hold up against a computer simulated one, and then against the real market. The world is controlled by data and this project is just one of many that can be used to better understand big data and how to break it down. Overall my year in ISR I feel was rather successful as I was able to fully learn R-Programming (a statistical reasoning and big data program) as well as run a somewhat basic app to predict the stock market based off of the moving avgs and time in between slopes. Also I was able to connect one raspberry pi running my R-Program to another that ran my database. However the one issues I did have was the iPhone app part. Possibly that issue could have been from not wanting to deal with iOS development or laziness but overall I think it was not necessary in the end for my goals, but rather a side addition to try and take it to a wider margin of people. In all I feel like I accomplished a lot these past two years and I hope that someone takes my place in doing a project revolving around economics as it is a key part of our society that is rather fascinating, which is more important than any technology, science, entertainment, or anything except for government.

Today I mostly worked on my final project for math as well as finish up some of my weblogs. Since it is our last day of class and I have already presented, as well as more or less feeling accomplished with my project, I figured I should probably get other work out of the way as the quarter ends in just about a day or two.

Today I had my final presentation. Overall I think it went well, however it is strange thinking that this is my 4th and final presentation ever on this project. I went over what I did this semester which includes finishing up the R-Programming server and setting up the database to store and connect so that I can get the information either. then I went over the Trump Twitter Bot which was quite a fun side project.

This week I spent time working on my presentation for the final presentation. I thought my presentation was going to be on Wednesday but we had to reschedule it to next week due to Ms. Pettey's having meetings on Monday and Wednesday. So now I will be going on Wednesday of next week.

Today I went through my presentation to make sure it will look ok for next week Monday when I present. Overall I think I am ready for my presentation and will be ready for it on Monday.

Today I learned that my presentation was not today. Which is kinda nice as now I have more time to prepare for my presentation that will be next Monday. Since I completed my presentation for today now that its next week. I decided to use the extra time to help study for my AP Comp Gov test which is tomorrow morning.

Today I worked on finishing up my presentation for next class. I think I will be ready to present next class however my presentation really needs to be updated from the last one and I need to remove some slides as they are no longer relevant.

This week I looked at a variety of things ranging from missile systems, to why on our projects and how to incorporate it onto our projects. Also I looked into the differences of Ponzi schemes and Pyramid schemes. Overall since it is towards the end it will all be about our presentations and how to present it and why we are doing the project we are.

Today we were working on our projects presentation. I think I am going to recycle most of my old project presentation but with a lot more updates to it. Also I am trying to figure out how to incorporate the Why into my presentation. Also hopefully I will remember and be able to bring in the Raspberry Pi with the actual code on it as well as the one with my database on it.

Today we kinda didn't do much as AP's are going on and most of our class is in an AP. So today we kinda dabbled in VR and the games in VR, as well as talking about missile systems and various military systems that our government runs.

Today I was looking into missile systems and other ballistic defense systems as I find it interesting as to how they function and work. I was looking at it was quasi-related to my project, since there was a lot of news on various missile defense systems like THAAD. It all relates since as we see rising threats around North Korea and Syria amongst other escalating events (thought I doubt it will cause anything catastrophic), various Weapons Manufacturers and Defense contractors that are public on the market will see a rise in their stock prices. I always also had an interest in military and technology, though not as much in offensive capabilities as they seem oversaturated in the market but rather the defense system and other bionics that can help Troops, Civilians, and other targets stay alive longer in combat scenarios.

This week I went over my presentation Why, to state why I wanted to do my stock market project and figure out how to better base our presentations and why people should care about our presentations. Then i was at BIIFs for tennis.

Today I was at Tennis for Individual BIIFs

Today we went over the why of our project and why we want to do our projects. In addition to this we went over the presentation part of our projects and how the rubric for our presentation is going to be laid out.

Today i worked on

This week has been an interesting week within the stock market as the full scale of the week has seen a bit of disasters such as the Pepsi Commercial and the United airlines issues, also we have our the market reacting very different and rather more worried about the US bombings in Afghanistan on ISIS than I would think. The market as a whole seems to be decreasing whereas in times like during the Bush Administration when this took place I think the market actually rose.

Today I looked at the markets as they were reacting to United Airlines in addition to the MOAB the United States Dropped on the ISIS tunnels during the week. Overall the whole market seems to have reacted negatively to this news which aside from United seems a bit weird and off. United lost somewhere around 800 million of their market share after the video was released. Top one is Dow Jones

Today I found a github rep with a trump stock bot that is compilable on linux and will trade a sell stocks based on Trumps Tweet. In order to use it you have to give it a twitter account and a account for a specific stock trading app (I forget the name) and then you can run it normally or run its benchmarking tools to see how it would have preformed in the past. (Based off of his old tweets).

Today I was just scrolling through the newsfeed on bloomberg to see all the happening over the past week or so and looking for different market applicable news stories that may influence the market. Overall there is a lot of information on their source and a lot of rather interesting articles. While maybe not the most productive it was a relaxing break and very interesting stories.

This week was relatively random as we had a major event on Thursday night that altered a lot of markets and could potential lead to a either major increase or decrease in stocks depending on financial advisors sentiment towards the Trump administration and how much they trust them in a wartime event. I also was looking into how the Trump Stock bot analysis's the twitter feed and how it comes to the conclusions it does and acts upon them instantaneously.
