What do you think of TradersStudio?

[fundjunkie]

Quote from Murray Ruggiero:

I began development of TradersStudio in 2002. TradeStation could not do what I needed to do for my trading system development research. It did not support portfiolo analysis. It also did not have built in money management. Rina was a option , a expensive one but it was not flexable and it's money management used a trade stream, that not ideal because money management strategy can effect trades, for example exiting position due to rebalancing.

In addition many other issues like , getting filled in TradeStation when you touch a limit order which is not always true. The difference between assume fills trading though a limit versus touching it can be huge in markets like the stock indexes.

Other issues like , developing stock trading system really did not work in TradeStation and no one could handle true money management with stocks because you had to use split adjusted data.

We developed the migration wizard for TradeStation code to help translate all the TradeStation code that I and my customers had.

I wrote about 50% of the orginal code, though version 1.3.6. Since then, I only do a little coding , most of the time for features I need for my research right then. I continue to manage the project with my team of programmers on a daily basis.

Looking back do you think you should have developed TS from scratch in C# and C++?

C# has problems, in fact there are tools to decompile any .NET DLL/EXE back to source code. .NET is not secure. Maybe looking back I would have limited the VB 6.0 code to only the interface , but I was a C and VB programmer not a C++ programmer so this is historically why it was developed like it was.

After the first release of Pro we are working on moving more code to C++ and supporting multiple cores. Also Real time and the Professional multi-core release will share common source code with different features enabled.

Of course, I am simply joking ! Thanks for joining my group, by the way !

I have also joined the group. Please may I know who else have joined the group? Please explain as to what you meant by "synthetising".

 

[samuel_weber_74]

ooopps, I made a little mistake !
I simply meant that list is rather long but it was simply a joke.
I sincerely commend all the time and effort needed to put it together.

 

[Derrick1983]

samuel_weber_74, you are correct regarding the list! But, thanks for the compliments too!

Well, I basically send the list as I am surprised that ET has so much information of TradersStudio and yet many people yet do not know it (as seen in the poll). I just simple a simple research and found out so much information. A bit surprising indeed!

 

[samuel_weber_74]

well, just a suggestion, if you want even more compliments ..... use the same time to find something interesting to post in the group ! I need some good will - helpful members to have it lively and interesting.
