I have question regarding C# vs C++/CLI; both are using the same virtual machine so there should not be any difference in performance.

start from the beginning; do broker search, platform search, feed search DMA search and check what technologies are available to hook up to markets then research those and choose one that suits you best.

Every economy follows universal economic laws. Creating reserves and savings for future growth is fundamental because it assures stability of economic system. US have just different economic conditions that allow for delay between economic action and reaction because US is neocolonial power...

China is still communist country as of today and Chairman Mao is pictured on their paper money managed by Central Committee of Communist Party. I do not think Chinese want to westernize like east Europeans who considered communism as foreign invasion. Again, do not analyze China using...

It depends which Americans you are talking about. Obamacare as all socialist agendas is about politics and not health care. It will empower their political base, their supporters and their friends and will hurt those who potentially might support their political enemies. The answer is simple...

China is communist country that follows principles of planned economy according to underlying communist ideology. Money and currencies are just unnecessary evil of capitalism according to that ideology. Right now they just playing along and pretend because it is convenient for them. You cannot...

My question is why there are so many different "truths" and "myths" about something simple that can be counted and expressed as a simple measure in regards to inflation.

IB API is just socket implementation with message passing mechanism between running IB Application (TWS, Gateway) and your program. In any scenario one could design program with no GUI. To start check their C++ Posix implementation. I would recommend checking IB TWS group at yahoo and IB site as...

Brain operates on different principle than computers. For all practical purposes computer processes information sequentially and each complex task has to be divided into simple rudimentary operations. Once the complexity of the problem increases it is difficult to create viable working...

If you construct bars from ticks with unknown number of ticks per period then best is to use container like queue (vector) per each symbol (kept in array or another vector). At the end of bar period just get first last min max (ohlc), empty vector and start acquiring ticks for next bar. No need...

And who says there are no patterns. It must be j2ee because only him would create 5 arrays instead of one multidimensional array since he is indexing bars. I think that talking about structs, classes and associative containers is too much at this point.

In short author of the book "Fooled by randomness" (and other books plus he was or is working on Wall Street). He considers all processes random and that we are all fooled by randomness thinking that if 4/5 or 10/10 occurs than we think that we have a pattern (know something for sure)...

Good question. Taleb "Fooled by Randomness" and probably some other texts show tests (coin toss etc.) indicating that you can have series of values seemingly indicating that the process is not random. According to the above series of 4/5, 10/10 can still occur in random process. One...

Is he following your advice? Do you have something simpler to show. Your charts look too complicated.
