    Anyone coding in Assembler?

    Lack of talent... it's very hard to find good ASM talent since few people know it. It's hard to convert a programmer to ASM, especially newly minted programmers who cut their teeth on OO based languages. Development time is huge... some edges only last for weeks, or days, once detected...

    Honest broker for trading from SE Asia

    Normally I'd back Oanda here but I have no clue where they have local servers to you... maybe you should drop them an email... Other than that, Pepperstone out of Australia is ASIC regulated and has a datacenter in Singapore for relay. They are an STP/ECN type broker and I'm happy with them...

    No dealing desk brokers

    Canadian here... Yeah, as the other poster said, MBT doesn't take Canadian clients. Oanda is great for their spreads but they tend to get wide during non-active times. They say it's because liquidity drys up in the market, but a few different ECNs I trade with have great liquidity...

    We have seen this movie twice already

    You don't think every high paid quant and research department on Wall Street hasn't already thought of this? I wonder what's going to be more profitable, buying the puts as you said, or selling them to you... Just thinking aloud.

    Business Plan

    AHAHAH! Dude... you're barking up the wrong tree. Build a trading record that's audited by a 3rd party and verified with your broker... call it an incubator fund, it doesn't have to be large. Take this record and approach accredited investors with the idea of trading their capital for...

    Discretionary Day Trader Computer

    SOME SSDs have a power savings advantage...but a lot of cheap SSDs will draw just as much if not more power. Check power specifications if this is something you care about or if you're going to drop an SSD into a laptop.

    Slander and Fraud concerning my Account

    Your first post was back on Sept 20th of last year. You demanded the mods remove all your posts and threatened legal action. What came of this? Why are you still posting here if you wanted to leave last year? Wouldn't your continued activity on these boards work against you in a legal...

    Last Attempt 2012

    ... if you haven't learned from the last time, and are just going to continue doing what isn't working but with higher leverage... I'd rather you just give that account balance to charity than piss it away. How about this, what went wrong the last time? What were your mistakes? What was...

    Toronto Prop/Trading Firms

    I come from a firm that offers all this sans the remote access. And I never said "maximum profit sharing", I said profit sharing that is reasonable given they are taking on the risk. Getting just under a 50%, and I feel that is acceptable. That's why they care about training and...

    New brokers growing like mushrooms

    Good, always go for firms that conform to tight regulation. :)

    New brokers growing like mushrooms

    What? Seriously? Have you seen the retail FX spot market growth number over the last 10 years? It's a low barrier to entry business (with most regulators that is) where the market space is expanding rapidly. I'd expect nothing else but tonnes of new brokers... there's money to be made...

    Introducing Brokers to LMAX ?

    I think you mean 'white label' or possibly sourcing liquidity from LMAX. An introducing broker is someone who simply helps you sign up to LMAX directly. They won't be able to help you here. That being said, why are you so set on LMAX anyhow? They aren't anything special. What are...

    Which Broker to go with?

    Nice :) No problem. BTW, what sort of connection to a broker does NinjaTrader need to make adding a new supported broker easy for you guys to implement? FIX?

    Forex Broker Ratings

    The commissions scale with volume or account equity size, and it's a set structure so you don't have to negotiate with a rep or anything to get really thin commissions if you push a lot of volume. The execution quality is excellent. You trade on their SWFX ECN that has a lot of other...

    Forex Broker Ratings

    Trouble is, places like FPA will have just as many cruddy reviews of good brokers as they have good reviews. The industry is full of idiots who wash out and blame the broker instead of taking responsibility of their loss. Generally speaking, stick to well established brokers who are...

    Which SSD is best for backtesting

    How presumptuous and demanding. I could assist you, but after that remark you've made I won't do it for free. Try giving back to the community first.. we're not your personal free IT staff.
