Tips for writing a mechanical Trading program

Quote from FX-Trader:

Anyone know these guys ?

www.strategyrunner.com

Looks a bit like a startup company to me. I wonder where did they get the technology to send their orders to the exchange ? Do you think it is based on some other order entry platform ? Or did they invent their own order entry platform, then add autoexecution und finally some backtesting ? Then they must be pretty smart, uh ?

I was just checking them out ... they do look very startupy to me, and they certainly don't speak English very well...;)

It looks like they're just trying to do what TradeStation does -- you write your own strategies in C++, and they have API links to TWS/etc. in the client software you run.

Nothing terribly complicated or complex there, it seems...WealthLab 3.0 is going to do this and there's much more community support there.
