ABOUT ME

8 years Exp. |Trading | Backend | Blockchain | Python and PineScript

https://satwikkansal.xyz

I have been freelancing since 2k17. I love the process of turning ideas into code, and you can count on me for writing good quality code.

Aside from freelancing, I've authored a popular developer project called "What the f*ck Python?", and I've developed multiple courses & tutorials for many companies including IBM, Packt, Educative and others. Presently, I'm working on a book on Python for O'Reilly.

My areas of expertise include Backend System, Automated Trading Systems, and Decentralized Applications (a.k.a Dapps on the blockchain). I've worked with a few startups in the past (including a couple of my own), helping me learn how to build products in a fast yet cost-effective way.

I try to actively engage with Open Source organizations and occasionally write looong tutorials on specific technical topics. Luckily, some of my works were trending on HackerNews, Github, Newsletters, and Podcasts like PythonBytes, PythonWeekly, DataElixir, and more.

If there's an interesting opportunity to discuss, please drop me a message, I usually get back to messages in a day. Always excited to work on cool projects :)

I have developed several trading strategies using Python and Pine Script (Tradingview's scripting language). I have experience collecting data, and writing backtests to figure out the optimal strategies. I have intermediate level familiarity with day-trading concepts, so I can convert most strategies into code easily. I'm fluent with margin trading concepts and derivatives.
