It might cost a lot over the long term, is ineffective, slow<\/strong> <strong>and thwarts your learning<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A freelance algorithmic trading developer is someone who codes your trading idea for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless your freelancer is beside you 24 hours 7 days a week, relying on a freelancer to be a successful algorithmic trader is a very bad idea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are much better off learning to code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disadvantages of hiring a freelance algorithmic trading developer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are 4 reasons why I don&#8217;t recommend them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Cost<\/li><li>Effectiveness<\/li><li>Speed<\/li><li>Learning&nbsp; <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cost<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost for hiring is usually low at the start of the project, but every little change costs more money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you build and test your strategy, you learn new things and will make many tweaks to your robot. Every tweak costs money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, you need to be constantly developing new ideas. New ideas mean more costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These monies add up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Effectiveness&nbsp; <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outsourcing  process is usually slow and miscommunications might derail the project.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This ineffectiveness is especially prevalent as you might not be able to think from a coder\u2019s point of view. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, you will request for things that are hard to implement, give instructions that you think are clear but are not, or expect to pay pittance for a mammoth task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Example 1 &#8211; Things that are hard to implement<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Client wants a trading robot that learns from the past support and resistance lines and trade in the future based on those learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Support and resistance lines are subjective. They are easy for a trader to draw but difficult for a machine to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Example 2 &#8211; Unclear instructions<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Client wants a trading robot to buy on the dip, but only on the large dips after a bullish breakout, and close the trade after the rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sorry but computers read logic and numbers. The freelancer can&#8217;t code the above without clearly defining what &#8220;dips&#8221;, &#8220;large dips&#8221; and &#8220;bullish breakout&#8221; mean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A possible way to phrase the above in a quantitative way is: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I want a trading robot that buys 1 lot when the ask price falls below the 20-day low and when the 20-day moving average is higher than the 40-day moving average. Close the trade when the ask price crosses the 20-day moving average from the bottom.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Example 3 &#8211; Difference in expectations<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Client wants a robot that reads the news and fires a trade instantly depending on how bullish or bearish the news is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What a client expects to pay: $50 and wants it done in a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is required: $20 million and a team of top computer and AI scientists.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/algotrading101.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/XKCD-ai-comic-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16328\" width=\"267\" height=\"448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/algotrading101.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/XKCD-ai-comic-1.jpg 533w, https:\/\/algotrading101.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/XKCD-ai-comic-1-179x300.jpg 179w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\" \/><figcaption>Credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/xkcd.com\/1425\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">XKCD<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Speed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today&#8217;s markets are getting more sophisticated and changing at an increasing pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to adapt and move fast as an algorithmic trader. Something that could be done in 5 minutes will take 3 days if you rely on a freelancer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your freelancer is not only serving you, but other clients too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A change that I, as a coder, can make in 5 minutes, will probably take you 15 minutes to put in words as instructions, 1 day for the freelancer to read and reply you to clarify the details, 1 day for you to respond to that email and agree to the additional charges, 1 day for him to make the changes, 1 day for you to review, 1 day for him to make further edits etc&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, a 5 minutes task will take 4 days to implement if you hire a freelancer. 4 days is 96 hours, which is 5760 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you learn coding, you will be able to progress 1152 times faster (5760 minutes vs 5 minutes), give or take. Okay, if you factor in sleep and eating time etc, you should still be progressing at least 10 times faster if you code your own robot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t learn much when you outsource. Hiring a freelancer doesn\u2019t help you improve on trading knowledge and mental models. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t learn about your strategy or asset class, how to think quantitatively or what is possible in the algorithmic trading field. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your coding skills won\u2019t improve too (duh!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After outsourcing, you&#8217;ll still feel like you get stuck technically at every turn and feel lost and hopeless (can&#8217;t install this, can&#8217;t run the code etc). I&#8217;m sure you know this frustrating feeling when you first started learning algorithmic trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might give up due to lack of progress and momentum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only does the market move fast, the skills required for trading evolve quickly too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you still trading by overlaying indicators? I don&#8217;t see long term successful traders trade on layers of indicators alone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traders are now moving to acquire alternative data or trading exotic and less regulated markets that have more opportunities. You won&#8217;t get to this stage if you are sitting at home waiting for your freelancer to reply the email you sent last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to learn how to learn fast and effectively to succeed. You can&#8217;t do that by hiring a algorithmic trading freelance developer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advantages of hiring a freelance algorithmic trading developer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alright, gloom and doom aside, there are plus points to hiring a freelance algorithmic trading developer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>You can hire them to design a basic strategy and use that as a template for further modifications<\/li><li>You can also ask freelancers for help for specific coding issues<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both of the above will hasten your learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to hire freelance developers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, if you do want to hire, here are some steps to guide you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1) Decide the type of strategy\/asset class you want\nto trade.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have no idea, then spend more time learning about strategies first: &#8220;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"4 Algorithmic Trading Strategies that Work (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/algotrading101.com\/learn\/4-algorithmic-trading-strategies-that-work-in-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\">4 Algorithmic Trading Strategies that Work<\/a>&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to be absolutely sure what you want to trade, just find something interesting and run with it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2) Find brokers that offer the products you want.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are looking to trade US stocks, then look for brokers that offer that. See what algorithmic trading functionalities they offer. Email their support desks if you need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3) Examine the software used by the broker <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out if their software allows automated trading (do they allow API access etc). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If yes, then you can look for a freelancer that specialises in that software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that some brokers\u2019 software allows automated trade execution but not backtesting and analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3a) If the software they offer only allows trading execution, then you might have to use additional software\/coding languages for backtesting\/analysis.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some software allows both live trading and analysis, others only allow the former.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you just need your freelancer to do trading strategy analysis, then the trading software is not that important at this stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look for freelancers with financial data science skills instead. Common data science programming languages are Python, R and MATLAB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might need to pay or provide the data required for the analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4) Be clear and ask questions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you know what you want, great. Be clear and tell your freelancer what you need in a quantitative manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are unsure, tell your freelancer what&#8217;s your end goal and ask what&#8217;s the best way to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my experience, as both a client and freelance coder, it is best to outsource small clear projects. A big chunky project is likely to face hiccups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where to hire freelance algorithmic trading developers?&nbsp;<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/Upwork.com\" target=\"_blank\">Upwork.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"freelancer.com (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/freelancer.com\" target=\"_blank\">freelancer.com<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/peopleperhour.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"peopleperhour.com (opens in a new tab)\">peopleperhour.com<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"fiverr.com (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/fiverr.com\" target=\"_blank\">fiverr.com<\/a> are good places to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to spot good freelance algorithmic trading developers? <\/strong>A good freelancer is one who asks questions about what you need, proposes possible solutions to your problems, is not a yes-man and does not submit template proposals when bidding for your projects. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_334\" class=\"pvc_stats total_only  \" data-element-id=\"334\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/algotrading101.com\/learn\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p>Should I Hire an Algorithmic Trading Freelance Developer?
