    Two Java trading system technical questions

    Simple float[] arrays and int[] array for volume is the most efficient. I mean, using an ArrayList or Vector will about double your memory usage by creating Float objects, and a Hashtable would just be a lot slower for accessing the data linearly.

    The Cloud for Automated Trading/NT

    It's far from "ridiculous", if you 1) Care about milliseconds, not microseconds 2) Care about the difference between $40/mo and $100-150/mo+ plus hardware hassles for a dedicated server 3) Find a reliable provider (easier said than done), and always monitor your latency and "hardware"...

    The Cloud for Automated Trading/NT

    If you have a reliable provider - it's wonderful. You don't have to worry when you travel, local electricity/internet outages, etc. If your provider isn't reliable - it's endless headaches. I first used the Amazon cloud, which of course was reliable (except for the one time it famously went...

    Michael Lewis Article on Goldman and Serge Aleynikov

    +1 How much value did he really steal? Assuming he was using the code as leverage to get the job at Teza, how much value was really there? Only a programmer can answer that. 90% of code written by programmers is an amalgamation of stuff copied off the internet, and from previous projects...

    finding the right broker or DMA or ECN?

    I don't think it exists .... maybe some international broker. The bigger issue is why try to do both. They are different worlds, and it may take you years to be successful at just one.

    Michael Lewis Article on Goldman and Serge Aleynikov

    Really good article ... Michael Lewis tries to break it down for the non-tech people. I think programmers such as myself can understand this guy, I sent a donation for his legal defense.

    Whats best for serous ATS: lightspeed vs rithmic vs DAS

    Yes when I say on BATS I am "more likely" to get the lucky fill (when price just touches, not crosses, my price), it is still rare ... and at this level just posting an order, especially inside or near the NBBO, will affect the stock. But regardless if you are adding or taking liquidity ... you...

    Whats best for serous ATS: lightspeed vs rithmic vs DAS

    I am saying in my experience with small orders, adding liquidity on BATS is just as good or better than on NASDAQ. Meaning, in cases where the price just touches but does not cross my limit price, I have the same or better chance of getting that "lucky fill". For your other question, I can only...

    The Jack Hershey Public Record Thread

    Pekelo I don't know what you are looking at ... try S&P 500 for year 2013 :D The only problem is that "Jack's Public Record" is hindsight, and the real time calls were losing or breakeven at best ... (losing big if his commission and fees are $800 for two trades ... :confused: )
