Description

Hey Qlib community! 🚀

I'm using Qlib for strategy development and running a $100,000 live portfolio with Alpaca API. Here are my Feb 2026 results:

🏆 REAL RESULTS
Metric Value
Portfolio Value $100,512.31
Daily Profit +$512.31 (+0.51%)
Win Rate 67% (6/9 positions green)
Max Drawdown -2.1%
💎 Top Trades
  • META: +6.7% (AI advertising explosion)
  • AAPL: +4.6% (cash flow powerhouse)
  • NVDA: +2.3% (AI infrastructure)
📈 The Strategy

Warsh Fed era: overweight AI + cash-flow stocks expecting bear steepening yield curve.

💡 What I'm Offering

I'm trading live with Alpaca API and making consistent profits. I want to share my signals:

  • $5/month for daily trading signals
  • Risk management framework included
  • Real-time portfolio updates
  • Qlib-optimized strategies
💳 Payment
🎯 Why Trust Me?
  • Real money, not backtests
  • Qlib-verified strategies
  • Daily performance updates
  • Proven results

Would love to hear from other Qlib users doing live trading!
