    Reversion To the Mean (RTM) Intraday Strategies

    Just my .02: But what I think Maestro is talking about is using numerical analysis to curve fit a function (polynomial function and maybe even a Transcendental function) to the data and then building a distribution of the deviations from the function (which I think if the curve fit is done...

    Climbing the learning curve

    The keywords are "should be"!!!! The markets and the models people use to trade do not always work the way they should. (i.e. Taleb's black swan) e.g. Look at some tick data for the whites and the red (first 8) Eurodollar futures on Globex 9/19/08 about 8:20-8:40 est. But none the less...

    Bonds Behaving Short

    Ronin08, I tip my hat to you on the calls you have made in bonds for a while now. You are a bit dogmatic in your calls and posts (lol), but have been very accurate. The call about ZB going to 135 was a hell of a call!!!! Happy Trading to you!!!

    Charting API

    Ronedawg, I use CQG for charting and they have an API. Their data is very clean, but it probably wouldnt work well if you need it for individual equities (they only carry NYSE, Nasdaq, and AMEX, none of the ecn's) but for futures it would work great. Hope that is helpful for you.

    Ninja Trader vs. X Trader

    I use TT and have demoed Ninja. I like TT better. I have used TT for a little over 4 years and it has been as reliable as possibly could be. The only time I had an issue is when Globex was down (2 times fall of 05 and it was just the Euros) and the E-CBOT occasional outage. If you don’t...

    For all those who don’t like Paulson: Would you rather have John Snow in there????? Secretary, what should we do about Bear Stearns? “It is in our interest to support a strong dollar and we support a strong dollar” Secretary, what should we do about the GSE’s? “It is in...
