• setup connection with IB's TWS
• handle inbound market data
• log if trading signal is triggered
• setup configuration of instruments in config file
• store market data, to do feature testing, backtesting and/or parameter optimization later
• write script to translate the bot's logs into pretty human readable report
• develop a mock TWS server to test bot during off hours, backtesting, scenarios, etc
• start running live
• end-of-day script that produce report and backup data (S3?)
• sort out timezones situation
• improve daily report
• add scaled and lined up graph with stats
• host to Amazon AWS
• move report hosting from github to S3
• refactor and consolidate report scripts (Jinja templating, etc)
• add summary stats to aggregated report: biggest winner and loser, PnL ($ & %)
• carve out signal module and move to github
• build user-friendly backtesting module
• optimize backtesting module
• add max spread condition
• sort out issue with live vs backtest
• add minimum price rules to recoil strat
• optimize gridsearch (run-time wise)
• split bot and research code
• ensure report works when no signal
• perform grid search on parameters for strategy optimization
• carve off and abstract strategies to be plug-and-play
• run automatically without intervention (update config + run)
• add 'since' (instead of 'as-of') strategy
• differentiate long and short signal
• handle next valid order ID
• Refactor gridsearch
• Run another gridsearch
• code in exits (create contract objects??)
• fix y-axis of volume in reports' graph
• develop position management system
• one-click provisioning of server
• move IB TWS from windows to linux machine (t2.small)
