    HFT Myths

    I find it to be the opposite. And if time and price scale will be removed from a chart, you will not be able to tell 5 min and 1 week charts apart.

    Anadarko flash crash raises questions about market structure rules

    Mark Douglas: Any info?

    At the end of a day it is all about the edge. Insider info, hft technological superiority, ability to analyze available info via some unique way and so on. Money management and discipline come secondary. No mm or discipline will help anyone to beat casino in roulette.

    HFT Myths

    Can you please describe the required steps for direct. I did all my trading via FCMs, through their TT, PATS, zen fire or IB APIs and platforms. If you connect to CME servers directly, who and how clears the trades? How does CME know who you are, and who gives you logon/feed...

    HFT Myths

    Roughly 80% of a time. I am improving it, and would estimate that in near future it will be over 90%. Yes, I can get in on a trade (tested it on real account). However, many times it ticks down (or up for shorts), and I close close the position loosing the spread and commission. So, the best...

    HFT Myths

    My algos can predict 1 tick moves pretty accurately without any increase in X on my part. Any advice on how to profit from it, since it is still a looser net of fees. Thanks

    ES Microstructure

    I see exactly the same behavior in KOSPI 200 futures (ES equivalent on South Korea). I did come across several DOM patterns that repeat all the time. Took at bit of coding top get there. I am using IB as it is the only venue now to trade this market from US. Generally very happy with them...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today
