Eugen Soloviov
Trading-systems engineer
Trading-systems engineer building bots since 2017: cross-exchange arbitrage (connected up to 30 venues), cointegration-based pairs arbitrage across spot and futures, scalping, news and sentiment-driven strategies, trend algorithms, and portfolio management and balancing algorithms. Also builds sub-millisecond order execution, big-data warehouses, backtesting engines, AI agents, and trading interfaces (incl. open-source profitmaker.cc). Stack: JS/TS, Python, Rust/Zig/Go, DevOps, backend, frontend, architecture.

Model Pruning for Low-Latency Trading Inference
Magnitude and structured pruning, the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis, movement pruning, distillation and 2:4 sparsity — the methods behind shrinking a trading model, and what still has to be measured before any of it ships.
Updating the Volume Curve Intraday: Does Adaptive Forecasting Actually Help?
Our VWAP article shipped a static, weekly-refit volume curve and called the forecaster the weakest link. This is the follow-up: a Bayesian intraday updater run against the same 500-parent BTCUSDT harness, with the IS delta conditioned on realized curve error.
Koopman Operators and DMD: Do Market Modes Survive Out-of-Sample?
Dynamic Mode Decomposition fits a linear operator to nonlinear market dynamics. The only question that matters: do the fitted modes persist from one window to the next, and does the rolling spectral radius lead realised volatility? Here is the measurement protocol and the code to run it.
Knowledge Distillation: Compressing Trading Models for Low-Latency Deployment
The blog's standing answer to the accuracy-vs-latency tension is a two-stage fast/slow split. Distillation is a different answer: train one small model to mimic the ensemble. The KD loss, temperature, born-again nets, early exits for a variable latency budget, and the distill-to-FPGA pipeline — plus the measurements that would decide whether it beats the two-stage split.
The Other Way a Regression Lies: Endogeneity, 2SLS, and the Gamma Calibration Problem
Selection bias in the search is not the only way a regression fools you. When the regressor is correlated with the error, more data makes the estimate more confidently wrong. Instrumental variables applied to the one endogeneity problem this blog has already left open: permanent impact from net taker flow.
Hawkes Processes for Order Arrival and Market Event Modeling
Fitting a self-exciting point process to real crypto trade tape: where the three numbers (mu, alpha, beta) come from, how to estimate the branching ratio n, whether the exponential kernel survives a goodness-of-fit test, and how much n moves when you change the estimation window.
Hamiltonian Neural Networks: Does a Financial System Conserve Anything?
Hamiltonian Neural Networks are provably stable — but stability is worthless if the conserved quantity does not exist. Learning a scalar H via autograd, symplectic integration, and the falsification test that decides whether a financial (q, p) pair is canonical at all.
Toda-Yamamoto vs Differenced Granger: Does the BTC Lead-Lag Survive?
Granger causality on crypto prices done two ways — differenced returns and Toda-Yamamoto on levels — with a correct Wald implementation, an effective-N corrected causality matrix, and a rolling-stability test of whether the lag is tradeable at all.
Processos Gaussianos para Modelagem Não Paramétrica de Preços
Projeto de kernel para séries temporais financeiras - rugosidade Matern, composição periódica local, misturas espectrais - e a probabilidade marginal como um regularizador que não precisa de conjunto de validação. Além da lista honesta do que ainda precisa ser medido antes que qualquer coisa seja negociável.
Operador Neural de Fourier para Modelagem Financeira Baseada em PDE
O aprendizado do operador mapeia espaços funcionais inteiros, não pontos – como o Operador Neural de Fourier parametriza um operador de solução PDE no espaço de frequência, o que ele compra para o preço das opções e quais de suas reivindicações ainda precisam ser medidas em hardware real.
Um contexto de dia inteiro supera um contexto de dez minutos? Atenção Flash e a questão do comprimento da sequência
Flash Attention torna um contexto de negociação de 23.400 etapas computacionalmente livre - lado a lado, softmax online e um limite IO de N ^ 2 d ^ 2 / M. Se esse contexto mais longo torna o modelo melhor é uma questão separada e deve ser medida, não afirmada.
Métodos Ensemble: Combinando Alunos Fracos para um Alfa Robusto
Este blog não abordou três coisas sobre conjuntos de negociação: por que o termo de covariância - e não a contagem de modelos - domina o erro de conjunto, como o empilhamento funciona como uma camada de combinação de sinais com meta-recursos fora de dobra e se a compensação de rotatividade em muitos sinais realmente reduz o custo de execução.
