    Next educational step to improve quant/coding skills?

    I'm in a similar position and have spent some time trying to map the available options. I assume that the CQF would be a good fit, but I haven't done it myself yet. If you contact them, they will put you in touch with local alumni. Daniel Duffy also has a few self-paced courses on C++ and...

    Bloomberg vs. Ninjatrader

    The first one can't enough of, the latter one hopes to avoid the rest of one's life. That being said, a Bloomberg terminal is not the best fit for the kind of trading most retailers engage in. Something like RTS, CQG or TT Pro would most likely be more suitable. But, comparing Ninjatrader...

    Al Brooks - Trading Price Action Trends

    First of all, I dislike "true" price action trading being equated to a 5-minute chart with a squiggly line (!) on it. The best books on price action trading were written over a century ago. All these new guys are just regurgitating old words of wisdom on the art of speculation. Secondly...

    Wash your mouth! No one has managed to successfully replicate the sweet elixir that is Coca Cola. You yanks ruin it with your high-fructose corn syrup, so I can understand where you're coming from. There's nothing like the crisp taste of the real stuff, though. I know of a few Americans...

    Arbitrage Strategy

    I don't know if you're referring to me or not, but I was simply pointing out that "statistical arbitrage" and "deterministic arbitrage" are specific terms in finance. There seemed to be a lot of confusion in this thread. I have no interest in discussing edges.... Why would I want to do that?

    low latency execution platforms

    You can add Orc, Stellar, CQG and TickIt (owned by TT) to the list. RTS is excellent, both with regard to quality and cost. However, you need to find the solution that is right for you. Do your own research; don't take advice from idiots on the internet... If you have deep pockets...

    Al Brooks Trading Best Pice Action

    People usually write books to promote themselves; I am sure his books have increased his income from the trading room and seminars. I don't really want to get involved in the discussion, but I would like to say that Mr. Brooks have manged to overcomplicate matters grossly. There is no need...

    Arbitrage Strategy

    As I tried to point out in my previous post: statistical arbitrage is referring to a specific form of trading, it is not outright (deterministic) arbitrage. If you want to live in your own delusional world of semantics, then be my guest. I just thought I would give it one last shot... Btw...

    Arbitrage Strategy

    This thread is surreal! Why do you people think it's called statistical arbitrage? Stat arb is only as good as the model(s) it's built on, thus it involves risk. Deterministic arbitrage is what most laymen associate with "arbitrage", and it is indeed risk-free profit.

    Awesome alliteration! Admirably accommodating acquaintances (with) attained apprehension and alleviating (their) anxiety, as apotropaic alchemy attunes all arbitrageurs. Absolutely an appreciable act, and an augury!
