Infrastructure
The Platform Stack
Three integrated systems form the closed loop from research to execution. No gaps, no manual handoffs, no room for discretionary override.
Layer 01
floppydisk.cc
Model Storage & Lineage
Every proprietary algorithm lives on floppydisk.cc with full version history, parameter snapshots, and deployment metadata. Models are immutable once promoted to production — changes require a new version with independent backtesting validation.
Visit floppydisk.cc →- Git-style version control for strategy parameters and signal logic
- Immutable production snapshots with cryptographic checksums
- Cross-reference to backtest runs on general.exchange
- Role-based access: research, validation, deployment tiers
Layer 02
general.exchange
Research & Backtesting
The institutional validation layer between research idea and live capital. general.exchange provides tick-level historical data, realistic transaction cost modeling, and walk-forward analysis frameworks that every model must pass before deployment.
Visit general.exchange →- Tick-level backtesting across equities, futures, and options
- Walk-forward and out-of-sample validation frameworks
- Slippage and market impact modeling calibrated to IB fills
- Automated regression testing on model parameter changes
Layer 03
Interactive Brokers
Execution & Settlement
All live orders route through Interactive Brokers with institutional connectivity. Real-time position, margin, and P&L data feeds directly into the firm terminal. Fill reconciliation runs continuously against expected model signals.
- Sub-second order routing for equities and derivatives
- Real-time margin and exposure monitoring
- Automated fill reconciliation against model signals
- Multi-account structure for strategy-level P&L attribution
