Interesting take. Well, I don't understand grids. As I said I can program in C/MATLAB/VB/VBA and am an advanced excel user and understand basics of oracle. Thats all I know about computer science. I don't understand linux, I have never created a binary file based data storage system. In my...

Thanks well thought out very informative. I especially like the part - "and it came out costing me 2 days worth of my work per month". Discussion in this thread and the other thread has been motivating for me to say the least. I can program in vba/C/MATLAB and work in excel/basics of oracle...

I also thought it is a scam but nonetheless the discussion that happened in this thread was quite informative. So, thanks to all the participants and especially to OP to launch such a well-thought out scam :D

Net slightly tangential question but what is your academic + work experience background? Ninja/MC is completely retail - then how did you move so fast from ninja days to everything custom-designed. The way you are doing things is like big institutions will do. Its pretty impressive even if you...

Thanks net for the detailed answer. Above is excellent performance :)

Many Thanks Net!! This showing off from you is quite a learning experience for many of us. So, please keep doing great things and keep showing off :) Since I am in the process of rolling out my own infrastructure (excel/vba/vb.net) to augment what I do with MC, your experience and design is...

flat at 1609. I am mostly an intraday trader so it was a multi-day a big trade for me :)

we are at new highs. Also looking at nfp, I would guess you are correct in your prediction. Happy Trading :)

:D you are a smart ass :) There is a thread going on about colocation and proximity hosting - so I just asked out of curiosity if you are employing any of those things. Because 2 tick slippage on stop in a momentum market immediately post nfp sounds alright to me.

Good Trade! 2 tick slippage is not bad and not good either for trading momentum post nfp? Where your computer is based?

Net Thanks for the screenshot and lucid explanation. Your framework is very good. One question on data storage and retrieval though. Almost everyone uses market data specific databases like KDB+ or flat binary files. With otherwise such good infrastructure why did you decide to store everything...

Must say - nicely done.

That was a good one LOL :cool: :D

Makes sense. Thanks for the explanation. The last story was funny and insightful. Btw - off the skills you noted viz. Linux kernal, crazy network card drivers, some custom written Assembly - I possess none of them. And I have been dreaming that next step in my trading career should be moving...

No worries mate - feel free to make this request a very low probability thing on your calendar. I was just curious because I run all my stuff out of retail software (MC) and am in the process of augmenting my infrastructure to use excel+vba+vb.net much more extensively to precisely tackle such...

Extremely bold claims - Not saying what you have written is not possible but just that is is extremely less plausible. Want to post few screenshots for us to take you seriously????

Good points. Can you post a pic of your application, would like to see how your desktop with this application looks.

Thanks Net. Garachen - I am curious of the protection measures your firm takes to protect your IP.

It seems hundreds of millions of dollars someone spent on building a better fibre optic between 2 cities (NY and Chi) has gone down the drain. The way technology evolves :cool:

Thanks, once you mentioned TPM, I read through this wiki link. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_encryption. Your point is well-taken in the context of a retail trader. My question is how does a well known profitable institution say GETCO defends their strategies? They are not anonymous but...
