You raise valid points and questions. My guess is that the restrictions this company employs are proportionate to market competition, or at least alternatives perceived by the marketplace. In other words, flexibility isn't a factor if one considers itself the only 'game in town.' If the...

Before I make a post to one of those rent-a-coder sites, I thought I would check this group to see if anyone has used an mIRC dll to communicate with a 3rd party app such as Esignal. It's my understanding that Esignal 10 is somewhat restrictive as to which dlls will work in Windows. I've...

So let's take the discussion away from Patak. Are you saying there's no value in a combine business model? Who do you work for or had worked for in the past? The ex-bulge bracket traders who weren't "sales traders" that I've spoken with were trained and developed for front running. This is...

Just found this thread, and find the topic relevant. With the "trading arcade" model dying the death of 1000 paper cuts, it seems to me that the old arcade firms could use something of a combine model to farm good talent; particularly if they want to move some revenue mix to the "hedge fund...

Thanks Braincell. That might be a short term fix. I agree that I'll need to add my own code or get someone who can do it. When you coded your own, did you link up via DLL?

When I used Investor RT, one of the features of that software allowed my trade alerts to be sent to a specified IRC chat room. It was great for peers who wanted to follow along. Does anyone know how to do the same thing in Esignal?

When I used Investor RT, one of the features of that software allowed my trade alerts to be sent to a specified IRC chat room. It was great for peers who wanted to follow along. I recently scripted a new set-up and signal using Esignal, but it's unclear to me how to send the alerts to an IRC...

I'm looking for an adequate 3rd party application which has two main attributes: 1) Allows for scripting custom alerts and indicators 2) the scripting language can call on historical BIDSIZE and ASKSIZE When I mean bidsize, I'm referring to the same data one see's in the time and sales...

I was informed today that Sterling's API does NOT support Level 2 data. So the data you guys are piping into your own apps, does not include Level 2. Do I have that right?

Anyone downloading/receiving the Portfolio Composition Files for any of the ETFs distributed by the NSCC? The NYSE says they are "working on this".

My question is: How are you guys planning to enter shorts in an arb/spread with a new uptick rule?

There are only 3 ways to increase return on capital: Lower expenses(commissions, rebates, entry/losses etc.); asset turnover, and good old fashioned leverage. If you're uneasy about the PnL swings, your size is too much for "you" probably. Here's my .02: Cut your size by 1/3, and start...

FWIW, ADI finally up +5.31% Friday with Semi's at +2.56% Friday. Didn't expect it to take 3 days into the new quarter, but I'll take it...

If you missed the move in Semi's this week, you can still jump on board with ADI. It started its move in the last hour today, but still closed less than Monday's close. Should be good for 50 cents(new headlines aside.) Cheers... :-)

Any prop traders out there trading pairs on the Sterling platform? PM me if necessary. Interested in discussing order mgmt.

Thank You.

I keep getting an HTTP 404 when trying to access this link: http://www.stocktrading.com/bright/risk.html Anyone else getting a 404?

My question is directed to those who carry positions in ETFs. Where on the web can I extract the average Return on Equity for the OIH holdrs tr? I have searched the net and this site to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Okay. What charting service is comparable to Quotetracker that allows for custom indicators? Looking to refer a colleague as Esignal isn't practical for his budget/needs. LinnSoft looks interesting, but what else is out there? Thank You.
