    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    Very nice :) Who is that - or is he a stable shock jock? Sounds sore that he isn't in the club. the people in the club don't lose. UHFT, nothing loses. Apart from USA benders who we will happily rape violently. If he goes up against this statement, then him himself is a "fucking loser", and...

    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    Hmm, i thought you were meant to be a "master" of the markets? What you can see is what everyone else can see, so why are you asking stupid questions about globalisation and max extration of ticks from markets? Or are you just trying to take the piss and attempting sarcasm? Why don't you...

    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    85 appropiate markets, that's a lot - I don't know how many appropiate global markets there are. I was talking more about one major EU market with MTF support that was added much later than US alternative venues (ECNs). These systems do not need central global connectivity unless doing...

    Of course he meant it as a joke, I don't know enough about FPGA to get the punchline though considering nobody has ever beaten the latency systems i'm familiar with, which don't use FPGA at all and only rely on the latest networking gear to have lowest latency.

    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    I was talking from an inhouse IB perspective and only for equities in EMEA. Nothing to do with me, I've never been the one personally making 6-7 figures per day from one market. What may surprise some people is that there aren't massive armies working on this. Most deployments will involve...

    Not my area, but fair enough if you are porting code onto FPGA - you are ahead of some IBs if doing this anyway.

    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    Hah, i've never actually used an FPGA for trading, but if the exchange matching engines were located in the middle of the Atlantic, we would have servers sitting next to them under the sea. For me, the actual strategy engines have always been in Java, because it is simple to use for the...

    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    Interesting - nobody else on ET has made a post containing SolarFlare or OpenOnload. This isn't really at the retail level because we're dealing with native exchange data streams, but the tech isn't exactly a secret. Is nobody else using this, that is willing to post? Also we have Corvil...

    How much does a HFT trader typically make?

    And your milliseconds statement isn't valid anymore i'm afraid as people have been measuring well under 500 microseconds for quite a while. When your strategies are latency based (direct correlation between the latency and number of fills), hardware technology wise, all it takes is one or two...

    its all about pure math

    A lot of people have viewed this thread but nobody has investigated/pointed out it's a scam. Search Google for: skype quantme Takes you to a "female Filipino" twitter account. From there we see: 1.) Links to their Collective2 system down 12.1% in 1 month 2.) Links to a Facebook page with...

    Domain for sale - stocktradingtips.com

    True, it would be quite straight forward to get it back in the #1 spot for stock trading, it hasn't had any active SEO done for it since around 2006. I agree there are several strategies that could be used for it - I may end up doing something more productive with it one day if nobody takes...

    Domain for sale - stocktradingtips.com

    I'm accepting offers for stocktradingtips.com. It was registered in 2001, is a "keyword domain", has good ranking for good keywords in Google, and has never been monetized because that wasn't the intention we had for it. It used to be #1 for the term stock trading, but these days it goes...

    I have a Safir-Xs license for sale. If you haven't heard of it, the software basically takes indicator values and price data as inputs and scans for possible trading systems using neurofuzzy logic. Resulting systems you are happy with can then be automated through Tradestation or used as...
