Microwave towers are for noobs. My PC is quantum entangled with the exchange.
Automated High-Frequency Trading Bots (GPU, CPU): Live Results Comparison [Institutional Scale]

Sorry, that’s above my pay grade, but I aspire. Shopping for a QC on Dell rn.
I've got a biased opinion on the GPU because I lead companies with NVIDIA partnerships. I have experience only with NVIDIA technologies, and even that experience originates from a management perspective. So, in my private environment, I use the only setup I know something about, and that's how to set up NVIDIA GPU clusters.
Consequentially, I use the CUDA platform.
Since my companies have an ever-growing demand for NVIDIA A100 GPUs, I won't compete with my corporate interest in purchasing such GPUs in my private setup. Instead, my current setup is from when I bought some old Tesla V100 GPUs from my companies when they introduced the A100.
I know all of you understand the problem if you tried to buy GPUs in the previous five years. The demand is often higher than the supply, and I had my share of delivery issues as well. I don't blame it on NVIDIA, but on the market with volatile hypes.
These two GPUs (A100, Tesla V100) might be more different than you believe, but our engineers loved to share unnecessary (back then) and very long monologues about V100 for years, which finally, I found some use for and with a few additional phone calls, which they didn't mind, I managed to build my private environment.
Who knew engineers could fall in love with GPUs?
They kept telling for hours like a young couple about their marriage.
I have a dual approach to liquidity with some of my bots taking and some providing it. I also do market-making and arbitrage. But if you mean the market health, I consider that when I decide how much liquidity I take or provide. I've got a consideration about the exchange and other traders and try not to wreak havoc without paying back in one way or another. Large markets usually heal fast whatever I do, but I seriously care about the communities of new exchanges and smaller pairs.
No, you're right, but my Daddy's shareholding and board membership entitles him at least partly to the GPUs.
You already know Tahoe might be not the best place to run an HFT bot. But before you lose all hope, let me tell you I think it's possible to do HFT from Tahoe. I won't propose to move to another zone because I don't know your life. So, I'll try to help explore some local solutions.
Do you mean you're not allowed to dedicate point-to-point microwave links? If yes, can't you get regulatory approval on request? I think you've got an honest reason.
1. I can't claim vast experience in your zone's ISPs, but I propose to check the availability of leased fiber optic connections directly at the telecommunications providers.
2. If they don't want to sell you leased fiber optic connections, approach local financial institutions to lease theirs instead. What some ISPs don't sell to individuals, might sell to institutions.
3. Alternatively, you can approach data centers or colocation facilities, too.
4. Should these on-premise ideas fail, you still have the cloud-based HFT platforms. They might be more expensive than particular on-premise solutions, but the investment might make it worth it.
Your bot will eventually depend on the solution you have available.
I mentioned some platforms above, but that wasn't all-inclusive.
I also use
- Virtuoso
- Tower
- Simply Wall Street
- Akuna
- Q-Trader.
The one I've got as a profile picture? No, she's one of our more recent developments, an android or modified adult doll in, more precisely, my company sells as a robot & AI assistant to managers.
But Ely's a special doll because she's learning portfolio management and leadership from me.
I've always had a passion for dolls. My parents say when I was a little girl, I played a sick amount of time with Lego dolls and soon started to make mine. Whether it was a birthday or Christmas, I've always asked for new materials: Polymer clay, stuffed dolls, ceramic. Our household always had a deficiency of cotton, felt, and fleece because I used up everything I had. Looking back, I believe my parents were completely aware of where their clothes had gone, but pretended not to make a problem out of it.
As an adult, with the recent development of robotics, access to the adult industry, and fellow staff, I don't have to wait until Christmas to get a new doll.
I won't rest in peace until Ely surpasses me on the markets.
OK, this doesn't make sense.
Virtuoso (?)
Tower Research. How would you have access other than as a employee?
Simply Wall Street looks to be a joke.
Akuna. OMM-firm. Again, you'd need to be an employee.
CQG Q-Trader? HFT? Something else?
You're talking about large, corporate IP and referring to their systems as bots. What bots? You're suggesting you have access.
You're discussing RSI and implying you're trading as a quant at major shops.
This thread is surreal.
Thank you. It's my TradingView account.
I'm writing about my trades for personal profit. What I have on my mind won't violate the NDA. You can run HFT bots on the mentioned platforms, which you can access as an individual. It isn't some secret technique and I could explain how to do it. You can introduce different levels of automation to all of these platforms. When you do so, you'll have a bot.
Also, I don't see why RSI would be exclusive with HFT. I use it, and I know others who use it. I claim it can contribute to the results.
I'm not a quant, though. I mentioned I was working in management, and I learned a bit from quants. Hence, the knowledge I can share. I also explained I indeed employ quant knowledge in personal trading. So, I can add a bit of experience to the information.
What's wrong with Ely?

You've mentioned HFT-shops and access to their systems. That's fiction.
What does RSI have to do with HFT?
You've never worked for Tower or Akuna. You've never traded their models. You do not own any A100s.
I think a few people misunderstood what I wrote. You can make a difference between your role in a financial institution and your personal trading.
I wrote the instiution had A100 GPUs, and I used Tesla V100. I'm positive that's the correct information.
You don't necessarily have to work for Tower or Akuna. Not as an employee, at least. I still claim to have access to the mentioned technologies.
UPDATE:
RSI can be incorporated into HFT algorithms to help identify periods of high momentum that could lead to profitable trading opportunities.
