    2560 x 1080 vs 3440 x 1440 on a 34 inch monitor for trading

    I'm a fan of the 38" Ultrawide 3840x1600 - just that little bit more real estate to work with, but I do also have a 27" flat monitor rotated (so 1440 x 2560) for those "long" page documents - both Nano IPS panels from LG. When you first get the ultrawide monitors, charts seem a little distorted...

    How do you graduate at 18?

    Yes - my bad. Yes you are completely correct. I probably shouldn't try and do this on a Friday night (my time!). To correct my figures on the basis of: AUD 1.754 - 2.139/litre range (average 2.015/litre across dozens of stations) Should be: USD 1.193 - 1.4545/litre (based upon AUDUSD of...

    How do you graduate at 18?

    Not really. I'm in Western Australia - ie AUD, but government has significant fuel taxes too. I was just using this as an example of variability of local fuel pricing.

    What's the optimal RAM for algo trading?

    Yes, it does sound silly. Your usage scenario is atypical (2 symbols, 3 time frames). But, in general - why use cheap (sub?) consumer-grade hardware for a professional endeavour? (I actually use multiple Pi-Zero, 2, 4 and 4B for my hobbyist projects)

    What's the optimal RAM for algo trading?

    In my opinion, Linux app developers are more selective of the way they allocate RAM for their storage structures and I/O approaches versus the "all you can eat" approach of many Windows devs. Prior to SSD (and NVMe) , you would need to think (and test) about the way I/O scheduling was...

    How do you graduate at 18?

    Where I live, the state Government mandated a "fuel watch" report, such that every gas (petrol) station has to report tomorrow's pricing for all grades of fuel they sell by 2pm for the next day's period starting 6am. Such prices are fixed for 24 hours from 6am the next day, and consumers can...

    He pretty much is Sheldon (he's autistic too). I've got first dibs on the time machine.

    How do you graduate at 18?

    A friend of mine's son started doing Multidisciplinary Science at University this year at the age of 14, which means he'll have his first degree by age 16 (he's currently getting High Distinctions in everything - that's a GPA of 7), so willprobably have a PhD in Physics by 19 or 20 at this rate...

    Nasdaq, NYSE Win Court Battle With SEC Over Market Data

    In other news, institutional/corporate-level market data from exchanges/index vendors will raise by 5-8% this year (same increase band as the last few years, for effectively no change in content). Yet, retail-level vendors charge the same rates the same as 10+ years ago. It's a fun business...

    But, the main thing here, is that all trades since Friday are for for Trade Date TUESDAY. That's when they're settled. Just view this as a really long illiquid Sunday session.

    Market Center Opening Trade

    If your backtest participates in the auction, it might have had a material effect on the auction price anyway. Most traders I know just use the consolidated tape open and factor in slippage. If I recall correctly, Marsten Parker (featured in Unknown Market Wizards by Jack Schwager) did an...

    Equal-weight S&P 500

    Note that the "Equal Weight" aspect only applies at quarterly rebalancing time (close of business on the third Friday of March, June, September, and December) - it's not a daily rebalancing. This is the same schedule as the standard free float market cap-weighted index. So there may not be any...

    Market Center Opening Trade

    For illiquid stocks especially, where there is no resulting trade on the listing exchange opening auction, the "opening trade" might be several hours later, but there are other trade(s) on other exchanges/venues prior to that. The first trade on that exchange will be deemed to be the "opening...
