    Genesis Software Issues

    My Laser is solid. No problems. I don't post often. However, I do notice there are people who is bad mouthing competition. Lets keep the forum clean.

    For those experienced with Genesis API/data feed

    ARCA's multi-cast is UDP and not TCP.

    For those experienced with Genesis API/data feed

    ARCA is having major issues with sending out the quotes in TCP. Whoever gets the ARCA data in TCP is having major problems. This is ARCA's problem. The ARCA multi-cast is much better. I see that ARCA will stop supporting the ARCA TCP quotes this year.

    For those experienced with Genesis API/data feed

    I have no problem with the data. Farat is probably experiencing the ARCA problems that plaque everyone: Laser, Anvil, etc... The posting date for Farat is in Nov. I think Genesis had solved the data issue.

    Genesis Software Issues

    I have no problem with quotes today. Today is one of my best trading days. Singer: Are you trading on the internet? I don't trust trading via internet - too many uncontrollable factors. A dedicated line is worth the money. Perhaps you should call your Genesis rep and try to resolve the...

    Genesis Software Issues

    I use blackbox and Laser to trade at Genesis. Depends on which route I use, I get 4-8 ms order ack. If I colocat at the Nasdaq, I may shave another 1 ms for NDAQ. But I may also increase latency to other exchanges. The order ack time is a function of how and where you measure your start...

    Genesis Laser

    Laser is great. The quotes were super clean even with the Feds. A trader next to me was using another platform. His Level 2 quotes were crossed. His time and sales were also wrong - from a few seconds behind to 30 seconds behind. Even when things were clam, Laser quotes are visibly faster...

    Laser Sucks!

    I'm trading Laser on a dedicated line. I've no problem with quotes. The Laser executions are also good as usual. Because of large increase in quotes, I upgraded my computer with faster CPU and more memory - 2G. I also turn off the unncessary level II windows so my computer won't be caught...

    Firms with the largest short list

    I heard that Genesis expanded their easy to borrow list with many big wall street firms. I think their easy-to-borrow list is very good.

    Genesis securities?

    I thought the Laser movie demo is great. It shows how customerizable Laser is. I only use the features I needed to make money. You don't need to read the whole excel manual to use excel.

    Genesis incorrect P&L

    I don't think the Genesis calculation is a mistake. It is just another way of showing the PL. Should the Pl be calculated FIFO of FILO or anything in between? The answer is depends. The question really lies in how do you want the PL be shown: open PL, closed PL, average price, current...

    Casinos have an edge?

    If the mathematical expection (ME) or the edge is negative, don't bet. If need to bet, bet it all in one trade. You will at least have some chance of winning. However, if you let the number of trades go to "infinite", your chance of winning is zero. By the same token, if the ME is positive...
