Prop Systems Trading

Don, do you (or anyone else) know of any black box traders/developers using the RediPlus/Goldman API trading software via simple Active-X, or FIX? Looking for any RediPlus Interface software reviews or any info relating to the following :

- performance
- support
- documentation
- rates (high frequency box trading)

I will possibly start a new thread for this question, but since I noticed you mentioned the RediPlus API.. I thought I'd ask..

Appreciate any assistance.

My personal experience, and that of many other prop traders I know, has been that stocks are 10x easier to make money trading than futures.

For me it comes down to the fact that in stocks I can easily buy on the bid and sell on the ask almost every time. This isn't my goal, I trade directionally, but this lowers my cost of trading to almost nothing, because when you get filled this way you also get a rebate that basically covers your commission.

I did the math at one point and figured that trading the ES vs the equivalant number of shares of SPY had me starting $15 in the hole on ES, vs .20 in the hole on SPY. That is huge!

I did the math a while ago so no one get on my case for it being off.

Very interesting point. Thank you for bringing it up.

You can PM me and I'll give you contact information for programmers who have all of the above information for you.
