Oh, It looks like Orsons Farm (by Jim Davis, Garfield creator) has it now been renamed US Acres (? )
|
|
|
|

It was always called U.S. Acres inside the US and Orson Farm from outside...

I worked on some software years ago where this very issue came up. Try as I might I could never get this through to our Project Architect, and some of the others; all of whom lived in a country with at least 4 timezones.

Isn't that just a sock that buttons up at the front?

I work on the "Student Sock Rotation" method: throw them all at the wall and wear the ones that don't stick...

And what are you doing with those DO stick?

Turn it into a climbing wall.

How hard it can be to climb a wall you stick to it anyway?

That's the thing with high frequency ... you just never hear about it.

I just couldn't listen to their sales pitch.

I don't think you'll find anything useful available publicly. Anything that had its guts exposed will have all the other companies closed source apps optimized to pwn the open one.
It's a zero sum game, and unless you're able to plug directly into the data centers where the exchanges are run, your latency will be fatally higher than that of the companies who're wiping you out, so it's not something that can be effectively played with on your own time. (Even ignoring that Joe Rando can't trade directly and his brokerage isn't setup for high frequency trading - in either speed or fees charged.)
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

thank you for sharing. my partners do plan to set up an office around the exchanges to do high frequency trading. now I need to do some research on this topic. before that I plan to use a FIX server to simulate high frequency trading to get some sense of it.

A warm welcome: [^]. (.gif file, SFW&K)
First, a down-vote within five minutes of their post. Then a comment that often suggests the OP is mentally-challenged in some way. And, then, within fifteen minutes, either a sermon on homework posted as solution, or a solution that may/may-not have some relevance to the OP's concerns no matter the fact they have not yet answered questions in more serious comments that are really necessary to make any educated guess as to what the question is about.
However, lest I give a too hellish flaneur's perspective: within the chthonic technical darkness of this nether-realm, certain angelic presences float, touching with light the dark corners of the mysteries of Linq and ASP, and other demi-urgic entities that must only be referred to by their initials.
I dare name a few: OriginalGriff, Richard MacCutchan, Richard Deeming, Sascha Lefevre, Mika Wendelius, but, there are more.
Yep, it's just like the real world.

A colleague and I were discussing such things a while back. When a system successfully reports that it cannot proceed; that is success, not failure.
