Hey guys, This is something I've been pondering in the back of my mind for some time. I'm sure there's a very good legal reason why this doesn't make sense... but I don't know what that reason is. Thus, thought I'd ask the experts. As probably most people know, hedge fund managers have...

"Do you guys actually make money trading? Seriously, my confidence as a system trader comes from the ability to find edges, not from all the little codes I have." Sounds like me. I have a specific strategy that has been moderately profitable (and will be more so once I get the bugs pushed...

"In the end, I believe well informed programmers will see that commercial and open source is a symbiotic relationship that benefits everyone." I don't think this is a hard sell. Anyone who's drawn to this project will, by definition, be extremely interested in the making of money. I don't...

Wayne, Great, sounds good. And the tick database issue... again, that to me sounds like something the community of developers can work on in parallel. I don't see why the project wouldn't be able to support multiple databases... I assume you have some kind of database working now, and...

I have the FIX API specs from ThinkOrSwim, and it doesn't seem confusing. I don't see it as being hard to implement an adapter, if only NT would let me do it.

Speaking as a (mostly satisfied) life-time subscriber to NinjaTrader who's dependent on it every day... no, this is absolutely not what NinjaTrader is.

PS. This is a bit of a tangent here.. but in terms of "wish lists" and what I would implement, if given the chance... I personally would work on building a clustered/quorum approach. I can't stand the idea that my code is dependent on a single point of failure, not with hundreds of thousands...

Hi there, Just stumbled onto this thread. I love, love, love this idea. I don't know if I have substantial time to devote to the project, but I absolutely will: a) use it, (I have a 2000 line C# strategy running on NinjaTrader, and have played with both Wealth Lab Pro + OpenQuant)...
