Thanks for the mention. Yes, I remember buying the futures around 5 am on that steamy summer morning when London was attacked. Saw a double-decker bus ripped open but then thought, shit is that all they got? It was a 7-figure day up, and then I reversed EOD... lost all profits and more the next...

If you're going to use Apache Spark, then focus on the scaleability of your pipeline. Do you really need to use Apache Spark? First determine the throughput of your combined feed streaming. You can use Storm, Kafka, or Spark Streaming, or any hybrid. I would not select any ML technique a priori...

Remember the good old days of SOES over headsets? "Load CSCO at 32 1/4." "Bid CSCO" ...Order filled at 32 1/4... "Offer CSCO at 32 1/2." ...Order filled at 32 1/2... Repeat 50 times.

Don's passing makes me think about how long some of us have been here on ET and some of the truly great threads over the years. My condolences to his family.

Also Surf... another double-barrel tax hike passed in Connecticut... watch the exodus.

I love this answer, considering my six years in federal prison. Before reaching 40, I owned my own home, had millions, and spent trading hours in Tokyo Joe's chat room. Remember the good old days of 1999? Then, my dumb ass started a hedge fund. I spent much of those six years in the prison...

You should probably stick to historical Yahoo data. It's cheaper.

$500 (original purchase ~1.5K) I have every volume (18 out of 19) except for Market Structure 101, which you can get from the Web site for $29. The material is in excellent, original condition. http://www.trend-dynamics.com/TD_Products_Enroll.htm

$500 for the complete set of 30 lessons on CD. It's my only set, which originally cost almost 4 grand.

The double whammy with Amazon is that the stock also appreciated on its AWS and EC growth, and now everyone has jumped into cloud storage, another commodity where prices are plunging.

I agree with you. The "Internet of Things" does not make sense to me. It's not like when you see the Mosaic browser in 1994 and say holy shit, this is going to take over the world. Or that same feeling you had when you first saw an iPhone and knew that mobile was going to take off. Until someone...

Well, seeing that you brought race into it, I don't think he needs your patronizing, either. But I'm glad you gave yourself the chance to pat yourself on the back. My business partner is black, he's my best friend, and we both did time together. One of the smartest people I ever met who never...

:p Oh my God, you are so right. This guy goes around saying that he's interested in buying all these courses, but then can't afford them when it comes down to crunch time. I'm willing to bet STC "Capital" has under 50K in assets and isn't making money.

Yes, all of these are still available.

It's because you refuse to recognize it in yourself. Step back and read one of your own posts, and be careful not to scare yourself.

Interesting. How do you take the output of the NN/SVM and convert that into a trading system with rules? If you were using a random forest or a decision tree, then you could measure the variable importance and then use the significant variables. But how do you trust the predictions of an...

Best day ever: +$1.25 million (bought futures the morning of the London terrorist attack) Worst day ever: -$1.95 million (shorted same futures end-of-day and market continued to skyrocket the next 2 days)
