Your strategy code resides on your hard drive. Why do you think they'll be able to see it? Are you suggesting they've incorporated some spyware in NinjaTrader?

Let's just say that I like Coke (which I don't), I would however drink something else that I liked which was much healthier for me. The first thing that comes to mind is pure fruit or vegetable juices. (Have you noticed that you hardly find any pineapple juice being sold these days?)...

I viewed this video in its entirety (it's not short) some time back. Well worth viewing. In it WB makes the claim that the only big difference bewteen a billionaire, like himself, and everyone is simply in the way we travel. He made the point that he eats the same food as everyone else. Well I...

FYI: He's now the world's 3rd richest man.

frost, There seems to be a number of people here who are willing to help you, if you would just let them. A suggestion; since you're abandoning your last strategy, why don't you disclose it and maybe we can suggest improvements or whatever, that would be useful to you (and others) in terms...

I too am a big fan of Jim Rogers. There's no BS from that guy. Does anyone know if he's been able to sell his house in Manhattan? I assume that since he no longer appears on the Saturday morning Fox business show that he has already moved overseas. Can anyone confirm this?

By the way, the lucky winner, Mohnish Pabrai, has a new book out entitled, "The Dhandho Investor: The Low - Risk Value Method to High Returns": http://www.amazon.com/Dhandho-Investor-Value-Method-Returns/dp/047004389X/ref=sr_1_1/104-3268805-8468700?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1183249193&sr=1-1...

What are you after specifically? Stocks, futures, forex etc? And in what format: tick, 1 min bars, daily? Only US markets or otherwise? I assume you're after historical data? How far back do you need it?
