Who wants to program my Profitable Trading System?

I called TT, Trading Technologies in Sg
2 days ago to inquire if XTRADER could
be used with Interactive Brokers ....and
guess what the representative replied?
"Yes, you can interact with your broker"

How do these companies select people?:mad:
Are they highly paid like those QUANTman
or FUNmanagers having FUN with or CONfusing
high networth individuals?:p
 
Have anyone automated a coin flipping (random but
simultaneous entry) trading system on 2 accts?

There was a thread for this using 1 acct.

maybe can try programming this idea first...

when NYSE or NASD TICK number goes above +300 or below -300, long one acct, short another at the same time on the same index futures...

Targeted Win/Loss ratio: 2N on winning acct to 1N on losing side
(close position on winning acct if it retrace back to starting point)

where N could be any number of ticks.

wonder how does the equity curve look like for this approach:confused:
 
Usually they are serving institutions.
QuantHouse (SmartQuant's parent company) also serve institution. It is lucky that smartquant come out with OpenQuant to serve individuals :D

I suggest you learn a bit of C#:
http://www.csharp-station.com/Tutorial.aspx
http://www.functionx.com/csharp/
and then learn to use openquant, it can do almost every idea you can think of. It is the cheapest package I ever see with such features.

PhD is a nice way to spend another four years on campus with friends, girls and beer for government money. Taking into account that PhD label can double your salary in the future, I don't think it's that bad :D
 
Quote from scalpmaster:

ES may not respond according to YM for very short term trading
and during spikes movement...

How would you pyramid and balance your trades then?

Well, I keep asking the same question, and I don't see an answer anywhere: what is it that can't be done with a single account? You can pyramid and balance your trades just fine within a single account. What do you need two accounts for?
 
Quote from scalpmaster:

Can you read? If you don't get it, you don't get it

YM movement may not synchronise with ES in a short time frame...therefore a spread divergence may occur...how do you hedge proportionally by pyramiding on the winning side or average on the losing side then?

That would require a traditional spread approach for reversion to mean for a weekly swing trade not intraday high frequency approach I am driving at.

Can we see some evidence of this highly profitable system perhaps?

This type of strategy usually ends in tears IMO
 
My turn to get some answers to the questions I posted
earlier along the thread...

I never said it was highly profitable...in fact it is definitely
less profitable than directional methods but you need to be
amongst the top 10% for directional traders to be in the game.
 
I finally figured out why I couldn't make sense out of your strategy. You seem to think that you can make money by simultaneously buying and selling the same security at the same time, and at the same price. In reality, this is just a wash, no matter if you do it in a single account or multiple accounts. In fact, you are guaranteed to lose money on every transaction due to bid/ask spread, slippage and comissions. I mean, even if you manage to buy one ES contract at 1450 in one account, and sell one ES contract short at 1450 in another account, it's still a loss. I wish you stated it in these terms earler in this thread, so that we wouldn't waste our time contemplating this.
 
If you don't get it in 3 mins, you will never get it...

comm for indices futures is only about $1.5...Duh

All the terms were spelled out in the very first post.
