<b>For instance, we are working with an ex-NASA software engineer (who is a trader himself) to co-develop some extremely powerful portfolio analysis tools and real-time market scan tools (where you input the parameters of your strategy, and the program actually scans market data, in real time, and sends you a push notification via email or text SMS when a window of opportunity arises). That plus a slew of other possibilities too much to list here.
The above project is very capital intensive. We're going to have get our own servers (in the works as I write), figure out data feed costs, and a bunch of other stuff, then start testing and rolling out functionality modules one by one. We may also need to hire additional contract programmers to help speed the dev process (which our technology partner will handle) </B>
Sounds just like www.themachineus.com from my old employer-------

It's a powerful program, in fact, the most powerful ever offered to retail. The issue with replicating such a thing is obtaining the massive quantities of data needed--- that group owns the single largest trade data repository ever created-- it's simply not available anywhere for any price. Best wishes to you on the software, there is tremendous competition in that space, and I am not even talking institutional or "fact set" type info. surf

Yeah I honestly don't understand why traders do this stuff. For one, we all know trading is hard as hell no matter what anyone says and really requires 100% commitment. And the software space is competitive as hell. I don't see how one can do both. Even being good at one is near impossible. I'm not saying mike and jack are not good traders. But I can say from experience and everyone I know, pick one, not both!

It's all already been done, man. Why reinvent the wheel? Just buy something already out there, some even have free trials to make sure its what it says it is. surf
ps even tradeideas.com will do most anything one could need...

Even Madscan is awesome.

This shit is top shelf. No need to re-design what already works.
