    Any experience with Cyborg Trading?

    Xtrader22, I can answer 2 out of your 3 questions. Stability is great...you are VERY unlikely to have any crashes or failed executions with this product. Speed is also great. It does what you and I can't and it's capable of doing it on 50+ products at once if that's what you want. I've...

    The Sexiest Customizable Algo!

    Not a good idea under your current fee structure. If it costs you $3.50 to move 1000 shares and you only get paid $2.50 at best to provide liquidity you are screwed. You need a prop rate.

    The Sexiest Customizable Algo!

    Interesting.....I've been using your spreader but have never seen “the shake”. Is there a way to have each leg of my spread run it's own shake? Not sure I wanna do that....as I could see things getting out of balance quickly but interested nonetheless. Maybe there is a way to re-balance...

    Making my use of stops more methodical and effective

    If your problem is simply discipline then use some gray box software to automate your stops. I use something that automatically sets my stop the second I get my position. It will trail and punch out based on whatever criteria I select when building my rules....can include volume, level size, %...

    Easy Pairs Trading Scalping Strategy

    This is exactly why I have less than 10 posts in 5 yrs. PM's are the only way to have an intelligent conversation it seems. A quick browse of your last 20 posts is very telling. You bounce from topic to topic hating on everything and everyone. Perhaps it's time someone got a...

    Easy Pairs Trading Scalping Strategy

    Wow....loads of hate on here! Not sure if anyone here is actually a cyborg user but I am so I feel the need to make a few points. First off, we all know there is no such thing as risk-free trading. It's a concept that never has and never will exist....despite me wishing upon it everynight...

    Funniest thing ever seen at a prop firm

    Watched a guy lose his shit one day after taking a hit...was screaming with spit flying everywhere and hanging off his chin. He was beating his keyboard so hard he ended up falling out of his chair. He still had his keyboard in his hand so he started to smash it upwards against the bottom of...

    Strong economy means more oil needed

    Anyone see that guy in the states who found a way to ignite Salt Water? The technology is currently a net energy loss but it's interesting all the same. Imagine filling up at the beach.......
