Will you be co-located? Consider TT co-located with ADL to code your strategy unless your strategy is really complex. Its actually pretty cheap for lightning fast exection. If rithmic isn't even co-located, you are asking the wrong question because whatever ultra fast code you setup would still...

I have used ADL extensively for a few years when I was trading at a prop firm a few years ago. My profits actually exploded when I finally coded my trading style in ADL, all of a sudden i was trading 10X as many positions, it was great while my edge lasted. Learning curve is not that extreme...

Obviously not, most algos I can do for a few hundred bucks. believe it or not but coding in ADL is extremely fast sometimes I can code an entire algo idea from start to finish in under a couple hours.

I can help with this, I'm a long time trader and user of ADL and code as a hobby, you can visit my website at http://adlprogrammer.com

I decided to use Trailing MIT as it seems to do what I was looking for. Thanks for everyones input

thanks for your response but I don't think that's what I'm looking for, I think that's more for large orders and you want to scale in. I just want to put 1 order out and get filled anytime there is a pullback of some kind.

So trying to figure out the order types in IB, Id like to buy a stock every time it drops say 5 bucks from the peak or something like that, preferably on a limit order. I see a trail limit order but a bit confused on the Stop and Limit Price sections. I already see Trailing amount which I can...

I think he got too full of himself with the Herbalife short. He was so convinced hlf would go to zero and he failed to take profits when he was up initially. Then he got crushed when the longs squeezed him. He probably thought he was God at one point.

At least 2 people have committed suicide as a result of this ponzi scheme. If they knew they'd get 70 cents on the dollar I bet things wouldn't have seemed so bad. Kinda sad really.

It's good for a lot of reasons but only up to a point. You can't replicate the emotion paper trading which is the more difficult part. If you already understand all the mechanics then it's time to trade with real money but with smaller size and work your way up.

Your money actually does not keep its value, it's value fluctuates daily small amount here and there. Take a look at USD index and tell me if the value stays the same. Bitcoin will probably stabilize if it gets big enough as the volume exchanged in a single day in forex is still hundred or...

Crypto doesn't have to be backed by the full faith of any govt in order to be an effective currency. The world wants a digital currency that is independent of a governments control to print more currency at will. The problem with gold/silver a currency is that it's tough to break down and tough...

Does anyone know if they exchange traded spreads? I was looking for this in TV specifically Brent-wti in CME or ICE but wasn't able to find it.

Ive used Okex and bitMex before.

In my opinion it's totally possible to turn a 100 dollar account into 5k. You just have to use leverage and the risk of losing the account I'd probably peg at 80% but I've seen it happen with larger amounts many times in my old office. The argument of doing a consistent 1.8% a day is ridiculous...

I wonder how much the minimum is to invest. At 4 billion it's still pretty small, maybe still lots of upside.

Those shares could also go belly up like the Enron scams and what not. Nothing is truly risk free.

I could probably name 50 companies that are down 50% YTD. What's your point. Also BTC is up several hundred percent over 1 year or so.

Ridiculous considering how many other far riskier ETF's have been approved and have come to market. If the goal is to ultimately protect the small investor you can start by getting rid of all those bullshit 3X ETF's and etn's that lose value by design. People want to be long Bitcoin without...

Where do you see resistance in the CAD?
