NQ has been such a laggard today - maybe forecasting a 20-30 point ES correction??!!

I am with you on this.

Added size @ 20.5

Don't worry. Who cares if you are a troll or not. Either way - you succeeded in generating a useful and varied discussion. So, relax :)

I do not have CS undergrad background. So, yes I do plan to do a lot of undergrad coursework through OCW. Yesterday, I just listed the graduate courses. Thinking of completing 10 undergrad courses. Lets say on average I put in 75 hours per course that will mean 3 weeks per course (@ 25 hrs per...

New short - 20.

Sle, I remember you had also offered to scan your notes and pass it to the community. You mentioned it was a lot of work. Just saying many of us are waiting for those gems. Thanks in Advance!

Please do.

I covered half at 10, re-added that half at 15.5 again. So, yes short still. Bidding 12/13.

To give a better idea of my background, I know half of this course: Practical Programming in C http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-087-practical-programming-in-c-january-iap-2010/lecture-notes/ I have selected following courses which I think might be...

So, I looked at electrical engineering & computer science page at mit opencourseware website. It lists all the courses available on ocw. Link: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/ My aim is following: 1) Substantially increase my practical and...

The big difference being libor fixing affects counties, pension funds, educational institutes and private corporates. HFT especially sub-penny affects fills of stock traders and thus their livelihood directly :)

Thanks for your perspective, makes sense. If I can get all the lectures of MIT MS in CS online, then there is very little need for me to go physically to the campus to get a degree. I can watch and understand all the lectures on my own - just needs dedication. I like to ask lots of questions to...

A very good question indeed unfortunately not many useful responses. I am a futures trader trading few futures. So, I go and do optimizations for each future contract independently. It will be very interesting to hear comments from some of the stock traders doing 10s to 100s of stocks. OP...

My main message is - if you are using the most basic and primitive features of these retail programs, chances are things will work as expected. However, if you want to use any fancy features of this program, it will be beneficial to be skeptical that the promised thing works as advertised...

A big problem with all the retail trading software out there is that the quality check is horrible. Their main aim is to roll out as many features as so that they can have more tick marks for features compared to their competitors. Whether the feature they are rolling out works as expected or...
