Sorry, I'm not following what you mean by "joined?" Do you mean the MM decides not to lower/raise his price to match yours? If so, if MM does join you, it will become a protected quote which has better change of being hit?

Does anyone know if there is a way to turn off (or control) java garbage collector within TOS?

Why did he say that his "explosive spread" strategy is almost impossible to do today unless you are MM or have access to orderflow? Things are more efficiently priced?

When I am approached to do a project I always tell the client that I myself trade. So what I suggest to them is to make the code highly configurable even if there's no need to. For example, instead of telling me that you are trading SPY with 50/200 MA cross over on 5min chart, I tell them I...

Nice, thanks for posting! I tried to replay the flash crash via TOS recently only to find out it was not available anymore. Time flies.

@fan27, my limited experience is that they want to brain rape you first and then get the IP or at least understand if you have come up with anything worthwhile to research. Keep things close to the chest if it actually has potential. When I got into trading I was telling my buddy at Morgan...

Listen, I know this will fall on deaf ears, just human nature. What you are doing is neither heroic nor rational. You are thinking to take the easy way out. You will end up trading on a tilt, no sparks, no satori. You know what you need to do - the unpleasant mature thing to do. Grind. Like...

You are an inspiration to many ... keep posting you progress!

Back to hand cuffs!?

Different algos are run at different times. Some algos automatically adjust when they detect the volume dries up. Basically everything becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. The set up I will take in the morning I would skip at lunch.

So does the coin flip. Maybe the only difference is you cut the losers and let the winners ride?

I agree with @dozu888 on this. We are trading meaningless noise. Otherwise, there would be no need for stops.

I doubt this very much. It always puzzled me why people are not concerned with their IP being stolen overseas where there is no way to legally go after them. Cost is valid reason, but other than that. But I think very few people have anything really worth stealing that is non discretionary. Or...

Well, I will then ask the same question - why do spreads matter? You have decided to buy option for $10.00 and sell at $20.00. So place limit buy order at 10.00 and wait for the ask to come to you. Then you place limit sell order and let the bid come to you. Probably how most retail traders...

Please elaborate on what you have in mind and technology stack. PM me if preferred. I just became free agent.

Lol, so then what can possibly prove it to you!?

I'm going to make a prediction - once he finishes this year he will publish his records and will most likely have them audited.

Agree 100% with above. TOS is great. These companies just want your 401Ks. Active trading is just a way to acquire you as a customer.

So trading is often compared to professional sports. Do you think they get excited because of the money? I think it's more about mastery. Well, you can concentrate on that, but below caught my attention. "Wait ... Wait ... Don't chase ... We don't chase here"

I believe he started as day trader. Once AUM grows you naturally must hold positions longer.
