Quote from bone:
I've been using TT since 1998, so I know all about the licensing structure and how much it costs me per month.
Your comments of course excludes my proponency of position trading exchange supported spreads as a better alternative for most traders. Very selective sniping on your part.
Sure, most everything is server based these days, including TT AutoSpreader. And you're a fool if you are claiming that you'd be just as fast as a dedicated arbitrage group using something along the lines of RTS or Portware and their own dedicated ECN infrastructure. ( $$$ )
you might know all about TT, but again... your statement was:
"I have AutoSpreader because I have to buy the TT Pro license"
again, you lease... you dont buy... so your statement was rather incorrect... wouldnt you say?
you are missing the point of my post quoting you... but that is selective on your part... I dont disagree at all with position trading spreads, as a matter of fact, that is certainly nothing new or novel it is basically trading at a different timeframe than intraday... what I crack up LMAO about is your sales pitch contained within every message you write... but I realize you are an educator... wait, no.. you are a trader first... wait, or is it an educator... lol... for someone that is successful trading, you sure push your services a lot.. that is my point...
lastly, read your own post... you implied that someone using the autospreader would have their order execution "delayed" by their infra... when that is not the case... in terms of execution... once the TT/CQG spreader servers have the orders they are working, they are at the same tier/level than the arb houses... I would never proclaim that any retail can compete with the tech resources of a fund or bank...
and funny you mention portware, because that is something that I have implemented for the bank...
