That's interesting....although I have nothing to contribute to this thread, except being a lurker :) I would like to know more about workings of JMA and the improvements done on it.....any links?
Jack:
Thanks....you have given me an alternate viewpoint...and frankly, I find that I have nothing more to say....or to put forward...
...off with integrity and rose colored glasses....or not? well its a moral issue, maybe not a real one...
Ciao!

Jack:
So you are saying that an operator "way past integrity" (damn...I like that phrase!), but operating effectively, using larger resources than majority of the market, should be allowed to dictate/corner the market, as legilators will always be lagging.
You are saying until such an...
Yes, I believe that these flash orders/quote stuffing are one of the major issues that need to be put a stop to. I don't think that there could be any genuine support for them.
I believe these orders are sort of feelers....to check the market pulse...to check where ask/bid LIMITS are...to...
I understood some of what you said. I guess I am yet to arrive ;-)
However, you have not addressed the evolution of dark pools....so they use algos to minimize the impact on market, but here entire new toolsets are being created for bulk algos, ones which will never be reflected on the...
I apologize, if it seems so.
I am an ardent admirer of what Marketcetera is trying to do. As an open source project however, its target market is irrelevant. If I can deploy it....its for me :D Its as simple as that.
But it does seem that the meltdown came at the wrong time for them. Had...
I am a newbie....and I have a question...
Exchanges were built to bring in transparency....Dark Pools were subsequently built to circumvent that...
HFT has a cause, greater efficiency....but isn't submitting hundreds of thousands of orders just to find market pressure points or other algo...
I am a noob too. Tinkering with Amibroker & IB.
Reversion to mean is only thing I know about a bit and various MAs are the only tools I use sometimes with filters like MACD & RSI.
But I get my tail cut off in whipsaws many times.... filtering out those periods ruins best entries too...
How much of reinventing the wheel is required in Tradelink? What I mean is that many open source softwares (one of the best examples marketcetera....one with very good foundations) doesn't have basic indicators......such an issue could have been solved with a calling interface to TAlib or...
@Chronos
I am a newbie....just playing with Amibroker & TWS api and wondering what the optimum elegant solution should be...was just thinking that order execution should be forked over to a new thread which should report back....
You have given me a whole new perspective...my thanks...
I have been recently evaluating Marketcetera for deployment in my company compared to some other proprietary tools and got links from this thread about some other open source tools to check out.
Marketcetera does not seem to support FX as yet. Another problem is their lack of out of box...
