You need to consider your budget. Me, I'm a total amateur so anything more than a 400D is a waste of money. When you say scenic photos do you mean landscapes? If so, you may want to go with an ultra-wide if you are shooting with a cropped-sensor camera such as the 400D. With the 400D, an...

Could be. Schumacher used to get GBP20 million a year at one point excluding endorsements. Throw in endorsements etc. and the numbers go up quite a lot. Tiger woods will be up there. Jordan at peak would be up there. Not sure how much Beckham gets on the endorsement front but it is...

Agree. There would be no compelling reason for me personally to ever use J#.

One benefit would be the CLR. Not sure that is OP's reason though.

Yes, RightEdge and QuantDeveloper are two commercial C# products that interact with IB API. Though, I don't think there is a native C# API, instead some kind of ActiveX interop arrangement is used. Don't quote me on that. There's shouldn't be any reason not to be able to do this with Visual...

To be clear, nitro is not referring to standard SQL which mainly concerns itself with the retrieval and manipulation of stored data in a relational database like SQL server, MySQL etc. So yes, you could implement this language yourself. Instead, streamSQL is a much newer concept and is an...

I understand, at least superficially, the huge potential and benefits of having streaming SQL abilities and I'm quite excited about incorporating it into my event-based ATS. However, I believe it's actually answering a different but related question to the one this thread was discussing...

For the system I am working on my thinking was to pass the various event streams through Esper for ESP needs such as feed monitoring, indicator construction, book analysis etc. and then persist relevant streams using HDF5. The event streams could then be played back from the HDF5 storage. As...

Why does it need to be a streamdb? Could a combination of HDF5 and Esper: http://esper.codehaus.org/ be a suitable solution? Esper uses EQL which although is not streamSQL presumably has some semantic similarities. HDF for storage. Esper for stream analysis. All bases covered?

Anyone had experience with X10 using something like this? http://www.smarthome.com/1132U.html

Is X10 a possibility? Controlling an X10 device from PC e.g http://www.homesecuritystore.com/ezStore123/DTProductZoom.asp?productID=360

You can try a program like Zeroline Trader which has a feature for accepting text files for orders: http://www.zerolinetrader.com/doc/Port/index.html Then there is: http://www.tradebullet.com/ Supports multiple brokers and can accept orders from multiple sources. Text files should be...

OK, I'm sure one of you techies know a solution that will fit my needs. Basically, I'm looking for something like this: http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/akiba/hotline/20030315/image/npl2.html Unfortunately, I can't find any more information about it. Ideally, I want a loud audible...

I've only had a cursory glance at the details of HDF before Christmas, so at this point I don't really know what I don't know! I'm thinking more about how to cleanly structure datasets to support things like storing multiple timeframes for a given symbol or storing options data for a given...

Interesting. At least it lends some further credibility to the approach I have outlined which is good to know. Essentially, the infrastructure as described is getting to a point where it dictates the dependency paths for development itself. Off the top of my head the list could be...

Sorry for the delay in response. I must have just missed your post before I left ET. I should probably subscribe to my own thread. I have no reservations just yet about Java's ability to cope with high volume throughput. My volume needs may be more modest than others though. Luckily, anyone...

OK, I'm back. It's going to be difficult to get re-motivated on this project after having been away from technology and the markets for a few weeks. Let's see how it goes. I'll probably kick-start things again properly tomorrow or Friday so, if anyone has come up with some questions...

Yes there are free real-time data feeds. Exchange fees apply. I have not had any reliability issues but have not been running the feed for any extended contiguous periods of time. I'm not sure it has been integrated with QuoteTracker just yet but it has been integrated with...

Haven't had any problems. I have no concerns about data accuracy outside of there being gaps in the data for certain tickers and certain periods. There are delays in downloading certain historical data but once you have it, that's it. There has been quite a lot of improvements and...
