    What would you trade if you knew the future

    It makes very little difference, to know the future you have to explore, but exploration is an expensive process which means that by the time you understand what will happen you will not have the capital to apply to the markets, and you will not be able to shorten the timeframes enough to...

    Am I Missing Something - Probability and Streaks

    Yes, your winning streak is based on an exponential curve or evolutionary, a coin toss is binary, whereas the markets have every combination of everything. There are various books about confidence and winning streaks especially in sports, which is why it is smarter to start slow and build up...

    Place to park funds

    But you are looking for something everyone else is looking for, that all depends on your capital and what your class as "decent". You want an oxymoron, yield without effort and risk, for some reason you believe that your inability to trade won't follow you in to money management. The reason you...

    Trading Technologies ("TT") appeals legal decision

    Seems reasonable, some common sense at last.

    What is your favorite platform/website to view charts?

    We have our own because none of the brokers went down to 100ms charts and we needed to integrate our proprietary server side analysis process that shows institutional capitulation points. But that's just the professional version (web and installed), the institutional version is more fun...

    A baby is condemned to death by socialized medicine

    I understand that, sure, in the UK, and most countries around the world, a human life is worth comparatively £13,000 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-33325688, which is up to 100x cheaper than providing care.

    A baby is condemned to death by socialized medicine

    Agree, but it's very simple, economics.

    X_Trader transactional pricing - NON-EXISTENT

    Don't know about that, but on their pricing page https://www.tradingtechnologies.com/platforms/pricing/ you have to pay a minimum monthly fee, the brokers are probably just confused.

    New trading platform collaboration C# .NET, anyone?

    @InvBox You thought the message was related to you, no, it was to @cjdsellers question, plus have no idea what you are going on about anyway.

    Computer question

    If you are trading you should have a dedicated system with nothing else installed, or be very diligent in what you do install neither of which most follow. Always good to re-install the OS every year or two, I just buy a new computer but that's not really suitable for most.

    How do you trade crude oil?

    That depends on what leverage you want to use, which depends on how accurate your trades are, which depends on whether you can absorb the signals in one of the most manipulated markets on the planet where the technicals are thrown aside without notice. ETFs are usually the way to go if you have...

    New trading platform collaboration C# .NET, anyone?

    Why, you have platforms like CQG which are out of the box, we have our own but we have a requirement none of the providers can cover. You probably haven't looked at the data feed side, that is where it will all fall apart, latency.

    Custom TimeFrame Securities Database.

    It's complicated, and will cost more in time and/or money than you have available, assuming you have the experience in the first place. The problem is not the conversion, there are algos on the web for that, the problem is the performance to reduce latency. We're using inmemory and even with it...

    Regulators probing legendary hedge fund’s secret trading code

    Exactly, human nature will break technicals without warning, odd how the inconvenient facts get in the way when it is well documented that institutions were frontrunning LTCM unwinding. On an evolutionary scale RenTec have perfected what LTCM started, as they haven't imploded people behind the...

    Regulators probing legendary hedge fund’s secret trading code

    Yes LTCM over leveraged on technicals and were burnt by human nature but that's not the point, they had to open their books and then the frontrunning started. Life is very simple, if you don't keep it closed someone else will make sure that they benefit from it at your expense. So then either...

    Mentor

    Same question(-4) - different day(0) - same answer(+4), to generate profits you need to have the knowledge of close to a millionaire. Which means anything under $100s/hr (unlikely you will find them) then the cheaper it is the more time (years) you need to spend training to gain experience to...

    Which broker has the fastest feed in US?

    That all depends what you are trying to do, what software you have available. If you are talking about ms timeframes then that's stupidly complicated as in most cases you need to be next to the feed server racks. They will always be a latency, but to most it's not noticeable.
