All your strategies and methods have been stored at NSA, everything.

Well, Ninjatrader was caught logging every trade calling home, even doing it with an unsecured http connection.

You can google about it, a lot of it has been deleted, also on Elitetrader.

Your statement is inaccurate.

- NinjaTrader does NOT log every trade to our servers
- NinjaTrader only logs trades executed by users who meet these conditions
  • Are using the static SuperDOM is licensed through Trading Technologies and incurs a $0.10 per side cost
  • Are using our TT transaction credit system

There are maybe 50 of 40,000+ users who meet the conditions above and the data transmitted is secure through HTTPS.
 
The NSA’s power is astounding to me. I’m not sure how many of these are rumors or true, but it’s mindboggling to think that such an organization could and does exist. I wonder how much world data they can actually keep a pulse on.
 
No one went to jail or was fined. They will live to tear you a new one again. No fear of punishment=repeat offender

+James Poplawski You don't discover the advantaged features exchanges developed for HFTs to extract "guaranteed economics", you are told about them. To quote myself from the Problem of HFT:

"My direct experience was that exchange marketing departments tended to segment their customer base, differentiating between institutional clients and “short term liquidity providers.” If you were an HFT, you were most likely provided entirely different marketing materials than if you were an agency broker responsible for routing institutional orders. In other words, you were either marketed unfair advantages like queue-jumping or you weren’t. It was that simple."

UAT testing/back-testing doesn't work. The features are not evident in tick data, except for a few artifacts which confuse most quants. No exchange had an adequate UAT environment that emulated REG NMS until NASDAQ finally launched one last year, so you couldn't even trigger the use cases for the bulk of the abusive features in UAT environments over the period when HFT had its golden years. Thankfully, HFT wings were quietly clipped with the significant regulatory scrutiny that occurred in 2012.
 
Ok so everything is being recorded, that would be a huge amount of info, how do you go thru it.

Think of how much information that would be. Wouldn't you have to have some sort of expertise in the specific field to determine what is useful?

How many exabytes of data that would be.

Good find, and in light of another thread, it looks like the reason for IB's new (avoiding) exposure fee is to raise money so Peterffy can afford a belt.
