Account for overhead

Open SubstandardZeal opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I'm not exactly sure how this would work but it seems to me it's not worth buying/selling if the price is within abs(quantile - 50%) < overhead

Insugar Trading is most useful when going for the long-term achievements (Liquid/Gaseous assets), and by this point you should have enough grandmas that the overhead does not matter.

In any case, Insugar Trading does not autobuy/sell; it only displays information. How would you change the display to account for overhead? Do you have any specific example?

I was thinking don't make the quantile bold if it's within the overhead. But I might have the math wrong on that

I think I'll add the option to not bold if it is within the minimum/maximum quantiles; for example, by default, it wouldn't make it bold if it is in the middle quartiles. Then, if you wish, you can manually adjust your quantiles according to the overhead.

The overhead is based on the value not the quantile, and should be accounted for there. Something like only bolding when interestingness>50% and value is within sqrt(1+overhead).
