    Choosing an API

    I wrote my first "basic" program on a DECwriter. That was back in the ... never mind. I guess I'm getting old too.

    Choosing an API

    Hi folks: I have coding experience (C, C#, Python, etc.) but based on trying to do this a few years ago, I know I'll need to hire someone (resulting spaghetti code is a good sign) :).. but my first step is to figure out which API to use. I have some algos I want to hard-code. Algos are...

    I tried for 2 years to get a C# program written to implement my custom trading algorithm with the TT-API and gave up last year. Restarting the project and will likely switch to Interactive Brokers. Open to something else. Looking for a programmer who has already made all the mistakes to help...

    In search of a good trading API other than TT

    Quick note: Trading Technologies has been very responsive and is apparently now supporting a sim environment with a live market feed. They have gone above-and-beyond (in my opinion) in trying to resolve this issue. I may post again once I confirm it's working :)

    In search of a good trading API other than TT

    C# is pretty easy to pick up. I've done a few weeks of research and if you have straight-forward algorithms... it sounds like Ninja Trader is the way to go. The only reason I am not going that route is that my Algorithms are complicated (they change over time) and re-coding to Ninja Trader is as...

    In search of a good trading API other than TT

    They have a testing environment where you can see other developer's trades but no environment to test against a real tape or even a delayed one. THey apparently do not support this though I am trying to convince them this is something they want to support :)

    In search of a good trading API other than TT

    Thanks for the ctsfutures pointer. I will look. In the meantime, does anyone have any feedback on Trading Technologies (TT-API)? I hate switching horses now after 1.5 years of development so thinking of testing using real money this way: 1) Use real price feed but place orders to my own...

    In search of a good trading API other than TT

    Nope. Not supported. TT-Sim is for X-Trader, not the API. Even their sample code fails using TT-Sim. 'Been on many phone calls with them on this issue. Not supported.

    In search of a good trading API other than TT

    Hi folks: I have an algorithm that is a little more complicated than average so cannot use standard Windows trading clients that have simple GUIs for Algorithms... so have been coding to the TT-API in .Net for over a year. I am ready to prime-time but am finding the Trading Technologies'...
