// 001 — Introduction
Merging Algorithmic Finance with Creative Engineering.
Im Yahya Ahmad a 13 year old IGCSE student from the UK. Lifelong coder and programmer bridging the gap between technology and the world of finance who's always looking for the next academic challenge.
// 002 — Selected_Work
One of the projects I'm currently working on.
Stock_Predictor
A Python-based model predicting short-term price action on FTSE 100 tickers using historical volatility and momentum signals. My first serious merge of finance + code.
Retail investors don't have the same predictive tooling as institutions. I want to know how close I can get with open data and a teenager's budget (zero).
Pull historical OHLCV data, engineer momentum and volatility features, train a small LSTM to forecast next-day directional bias. Currently iterating on feature selection.
v0.3 — backtest harness working. Next: integrate news-sentiment as a feature.
