I need to automate some orders in Excel in what in theory should be a pretty simple project: 1) Using IQFeed (and IQLink) I need to pull down symbol history (Close) for X days back as well as the Last price to perform a few calculations. 2) Once my condition is True, I need to send in two...

Chinese academics are less than stellar - they have a pretty bad reputation for cooking up numbers, using selective bias and copying previously published work.

Reaching out for that *Like*-button, but cannot find it! :)

Guys, I haven't traded US equities in years - but I have of course followed the HF-debate and frontrunning a good while. The question I have is why orders cannot be routed to a venue or through a broker that doesn't sell the orderflow - surely there must exist a way of accessing quotes...

peil, that's a moronic statement. The point here is HE IS DONATING 100 MILLION. It doesn't matter if he's earned it before or if it's future earnings - which are uncertain as even noob traders should know. He's still going to be 100m poorer ten years from now than he otherwise would have been.

Wow, time to break open the time capsules from 1930s Germany...

There's certainly room on the upside for the market, but in the near term it could get rocky :)

LOL - there's been so many threads like this over the years. Even if you're right we're not gonna be fooled by randomness :)

I remember at the very first or second trading day of 2008 as the day I became convinced we were in for a larger correction than the "normal" twice-a-year scares. Then you had that first bank-thing in Feb/Mar and a proper credit crisis, banks in trouble etc started to become a serious worry...

Yes, I'm familiar with the pricetag of Apama. And that's just the software, not having someone teach you to use it or configure it or customize features for you... But, today, through a European equities broker that shall not be named in this context, I was quoted Orc Trader for what equals...

Wow, is that really competitive nowadays? It's about three years since I used Orc, and I seem to remember the platform was around 2.5k USD.

Does anyone have any quotes? Is it as expensive as the "normal" Orc Suite of programs? TYIA.

I'd be very appreciative of any comment anyone could come up with on floor trading of spreads in the backmonths of gold, and ask forgiveness for this bump.

Your statement is beyond ignorant. Only socialists/communists believe that politics alone can solve any problem and that you can just pass a law or budget your way to a healthy economy, jobs and eternal bliss.

This was reported late April: http://politiken.dk/erhverv/article959719.ece It ends with (from Google Translate): Banking and Finance take a closer look Co says FSA Director Press releases to Børsen that oversight has now launched a broader study to identify conditions in Saxo Bank...

If I wanted to open a position in the backmonths of Gold, what exactly would be a good way of doing that - and what kind of execution could I reasonably expect to achieve? I'm thinking of a Long Z13 vs Short Z14, with size of 500 - thus I really would need someone handling it. Any and all...

Remember; It's "Sell in MAY", not April...

I'd much rather see Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld tried for war crimes at the International Criminal Court in The Hague than see Bush impeached. And no, it's not because I write W off as 'dumb'.

Fox News is, in fact, completely full of shit. And anyone claiming anything else is either a total ignorant dumbass or a brainwashed slave to the far right. Also, complain all you want about the rest of media being leftist, the fact remains: Fox News is the most popular TV network in the US...
