    Black box, hosted at Genesis?

    Are you asking about hosted server at Genesis in particular or in general? I haven't done it at Genesis but done quite a few with other firms. Here's a few things to look out for: 1. Network environment. What type of network will the server be on? Are you required to setup a SSL pipe...

    Please Check Out my Site

    First... you shouldn't have posted this on ET. After a good 30 min. of researching, anyone can find out that you are an inexperienced trader. (or a prospecting trader who's developed a system without any cash). 3 Step Process of people finding out your service is BS: 1. Google your...

    System Presentation

    It's not dirty work. It's about understanding and being able to control aspects involved in trading. Without control and understanding, there is no management. It's nothing to be discouraged about. I started off with a prop. firm sponsoring my model and I was only able to use...

    System Presentation

    What I mention is not about good or bad ideas. It's what you will be dealing with. Another thing is, you shouldn't expect the firms to use their resources. They've already done you a favor if they decide on going forward, and asking them to use their resources to implement a system will...

    System Presentation

    1. What you mention may work for a job interview but it's completely different approach. 2. You need to provide them with the full results. These guys won't decide on accepting your deal based on impression. These guys aren't average retail trader. They'll ask for your test results and...

    System Presentation

    Let's see... 1. Tradestation... That won't work, no one will take a Tradestation code or model. 2. You do the work, meaning you will have to code and create the execution engine yourself. None of the firms will take your system and implement it for you. Also, larger the firm, the more...

    Bset Number of Trades to Judge System Performance

    As mentioned... testing a parametric system and a edge-based system is tested differently. Everyone has their own set of definition of what an edge is... I wouldn't consider what most people consider an edge (basically, a tested system using statistics that had a positive result). An edge...

    Channel System.

    It's not a system within my definition. It's the usage of Sq. of Nine. I'll give you a few tips: You take the price and find it on the Sq. of Nine. From there you find where the price of the next 45 degrees from it. The difference between the base price and the 45 degree price would be...

    Bset Number of Trades to Judge System Performance

    You have to consider both the time and trades. 1. For something to be statistically viable, academically, you need at least 30+ data samples. I personally like to have more, though. 2. Markets change with time. You can 1000 trades in a day, but that data only considers the market...

    Google bringing out own browser !!!

    Well... this is still a beta. They've only provided the raw browser (actually... it's more like a web app. launcher) and you'll have to give it a few months to actually decide how much impact they can give. Though, the concept they have behind the technology is OK, Opera and FF seems...

    If meetups.com, or whatever it is, doesn't serve beer... you won't get much response.

    Prop firm recommendations

    Post your system's performance. (or PM me) The performance, the measures you use and how you present the report should be more than enough to assess how well you are as a system developer. Also, what would help is the type of environment you require for the models. eg. Max commish...

    The market is not random, but TA does not work

    Seriously... You guys are retarded. All of you who's posted in here trying to prove some useless point = retarded. You're giving TA a bad name by posting things like this letting people with average intelligence looking at the followers as a bunch of monkeys. Think about it... replace...

    Acrary is a genius!

    1. Stop kissing ass. Or stop drinking. 2. It's not a big of deal and it's no secret. Once you get the data, all you have to do is code up a stat. arb scanner (Not TOS but Depth) between all the related pairs you follow and "approach to" trade a single leg delta. Once approached it and...

    Acrary is a genius!

    If you're running a Depth Analysis, in Forex... You need to check other pairs. A depth of a single market does not give you the whole picture. Obvious stuff, prices are not value of a single product like MSFT, or ES but a PAIR. Systematic volume / depth analysis for Forex requires to be...
