True dat'. They will take the money for our "safety and security."

New ATH! 32.00+

people are doing this right now, more or less an arb situation between different exchanges, but the liquidity isn't really there for true HFT. Right now maybe about $16,000 USD of liquidity within 10 cents of the best bid and ask on both sides.. take a look for yourself at bitcoin.clarkmoody.com

Bitcoin looking real good right now!!

Pretty sure only a specialist can see stops.

The standard deviation of a multi asset portfolio is more complex than this because it is not calculated solely on the weighted average of all the stock's standard deviation. You will also need to know the correlation coefficent to solve the equation. I have no idea how to key in the correct...

kronos.io (search) I believe allows margin trading / shorting, but I am not sure. Used to be able to do it with bitcoinica.... I am sure there is another major service like this in the works.

Yeah. You can get an account with Mt Gox. They are basically "the game" as far as execution goes in the US. There was another popular exchange, Bitfloor, which recently was hacked for $200,000+ IIRC If you plan on trading large amounts of bitcoin I would recommend a Yubikey, which is a...

Is there an ETF specifically geared towards corn? Options would actually be more preferable. I would really like to buy and put & call at current levels to expire in 2 months. Not sure which way it is going to break, but my guess is that corn is not at these levels for too much longer...

Pretty sure you can with oanda, but you are going to pay like a 15 pip spread over the weekend.

Yeah, but who the hell but some bot parsing data can determine in 15 seconds what is "fundamental" (whatever the fuck that means) and what is not "fundamental"?

You can use something like Sierra Charts that uses xyz data feed that executes through IB. Much easier, IMO.

Not sure if serious?

I dont think options are available for an IPO for some time. Not sure if there is an exact time after an IPO, or just when options MM feels like....

I think Sierra Charts offers the most for the best price. Not really sure what you could not accomplish with SC. Honestly, you will find the best software to perform these operations is proprietary in nature and not for retail use.
