No difference because you will use 5% of processing power of each for regular trading. Xeon is a solid stable server workhorse. i7 has better peak performance geared for retail gamer/power computer user. I would personally stay away from Dell because of proprietary system difficult to upgrade or...

Algo is big word for low volume ETN/ETF like RJA. There is not enough market depth and liquidity for big algo to go in. If anything it would be market maker/specialist order matching software but most probably it is lack of true market depth and interest.

What would be mechanism for FTT hitting small caps? My impression was that French FTT is limited to companies with capitalization of more than 1 billion euros. Anyone would like to comment on it because I do not have any French FTT details handy.

They complement each other. Both address technical analysis, market structure and trading. They focus on commodities, commodity markets and regulations. Their contributors offer more in depth economic analysis. I like it because this analysis is more sophisticated and they got well known people...

Do not ruminate too much. It is not that important. This is HFT thread.

There is Cali - Ontario connection - 2 expensive bikes purchased by defunct Ornge (air transport for sick, injured) using tax money were still in California (shutting some promo movie). One or two were in the lobby of Ornge in Ontario. At least Ontario guys know how to party and play hard using...

I was just trying to help you figuring out who you are trying to match your level. Where is the thank you?
