    Interesting. That means they actually get all of the trader's source code as well. Unless there was a royalty involved, this isn't such a great deal IMHO.

    Wow, what a move down. I'd say we should be seeing some short-covering soon.

    Interactive brokerage prop trading groups

    Wow ! I wonder if IB will provide a list of firms that applied and were qualified ???

    Interactive brokerage prop trading groups

    Exactly my experience as well. Sterling is really popular with the prop firms, but their auto-trading API is over 5 years old and is not really supported !!!

    Interactive brokerage prop trading groups

    Good luck with this one....I've been looking for YEARS to find a prop firm with a decent auto-trading platform. I don't believe IB will even accept prop firms....

    Do you believe in the fractal nature of the stock market?

    The more important statement was the one about separating the patterns caused by random price action from "real" supply and demand..

    Do you believe in the fractal nature of the stock market?

    This should be easy to backtest, no ? Using market profile for support and resistance levels or pivot points ?

    UK trader arrested for May 2010 U.S. Stock market flash crash

    UK trader arrested for May 2010 U.S. Stock market flash crash

    Yeah Pek, I hear you and he did make some mistakes. I don't think all 5 of your claims are true...especially #3 and #4. The original bail would have required him to keep $5 million under his mattress..... not practical. And Nav did have his money in more than one place....and he even had a...
