1. Thanks for bringing this valuable knowledge!
   
   Can you import external datas from Forex pairs, and play with it? -Even if Quantopian doesn't have the datas at this point in time.
2. so i assume you buy at that October when it's -3?
3. Getting error with "bac_sentiment = blaze.compute(bac_sentiment)":
   
   NotImplementedErrorTraceback (most recent call last)
   <ipython-input-18-7d23f0338992> in <module>()
   --> 1 bac_sentiment = blaze.compute(bac_sentiment)
   
   /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/multipledispatch/dispatcher.pyc in _call_(self, *args, **kwargs)
   159 raise NotImplementedError(
   160 'Could not find signature for %s: <%s>' %
   --> 161 (self.name, str_signature(types)))
   162 self._cache[types] = func
   163 try:
   
   NotImplementedError: Could not find signature for compute: <DataFrame>
4. suppose I just want a simple moving average to run for a while year, how would I instruct the IDE to only make purchases or shorts when such conditions are met, I don't want it to be running everyday, or even making purchases everyday
5. getting following error ... trying blaze
   
   In [23]:
   
   import blaze
   In [24]:
   
   bac_sentiment = blaze.compute(bac_sentiment)
   type(bac_sentiment)

6. What is the keyboard shortcut to run a cell?
7. Thanks for videos! Did you take part in open source projects?
8. great content in these videos. I have a question tho, Quantopian is ment to be run only on their webpage? can I run it as a python app on a windows/linux shell?
   
   thanks for sharing!
