Well, personally. If I were running a business with expenses outweighing income, I'd probably not do it very long. :) Since WA does not have income tax, it probably more than evens out in the end (especially considering B&O is only $1,500 for every $100k). However, running a business that...

Are you sure about that? According to the tax foundation, Washington is rated #7 in the most favorable states to have a business in based on the tax burden for businesses. http://taxfoundation.org/article/2012-state-business-tax-climate-index

I looked at Marketcetera. Great looking product that seems to never be updated. The user community is practically non existent. At least with Tradelink, you have a lot of users and activity in the user group. Maybe the other one you are thinking of is Algotrader? It too appears to be...

I'm looking for an experienced C# programmer to help me finish up some code. Although not necessary, In an ideal world, you will have experience with Tradelink. At the very least, you must be interested in working with Tradelink. I developed these automated liquidity providing equity...

This thread is referring to and in the context of getting setup. Not developing strategies. Hence my response to being able to find consultants that specialize in this sort of thing (infrastructure, coding bridges, etc). If the original poster is indeed referring to finding help in...

They exist (in the HFT space anyway). Do some digging.

Longshot, I know. Are there any programmers reading this that live in the Portland area? If so, shoot me a PM. Love to talk with you.

Here is my take. You wanted to buy at 17.10. An algo saw your bid, and decided to enter their own at 17.1001. Fast forward until someone wanted to sell at the posted NBBO (17.10), they were given a "price improvement" for the sub penny bid the algo placed. The problem is with the system...

Not very often. The times I've seen groups looking for money was when they were splitting from a firm and needed some start up cash to get going on their own. There are a couple of HFT funds that have come and possibly gone. Not too long ago, I ran across a group that was looking to get...

Look into a no recourse business loan. Pay 11% interest and repay in 5 years. Someone may actually take you up on it. Had a friend recently do this for $750k. Interest is high, but in the end, far better than giving away 50% or more of your company.

Probably nothing. However, if it is consistently profitable, and you can show a record, you can potentially get investors if you work hard enough. I've done the same for myself. You just need to know where to look or have a few connections. I don't know at what frequency this thing trades...

IMO, any aspiring algo developer has to go through a certain rite of passage. You need to write systems that are based on all sorts of indicators. Experiment with all of them. Combine this one with that, etc, etc. After you discover after months of tweaking that these things do not work...

I will. Thank you.

Hello. I need a data feed handler written in C++ and various tools (front end GUI/interface) written in C#. Thanks

Just to make sure I don't post in the wrong section, what would be the most appropriate place to post a job post for a programmer? I see a classifieds section, but it appears to be more geared for selling than hiring. Thanks!

If you are not doing it at the moment, you sure are leaving yourself open to that possibility (as stated as a disclosure on your website). So, you are saying that when an order is sent through the smart router, Timber Hill or any of IB affiliates are not making any money on that order besides...
