Quantative Developer & Trader
Currencies & Commodities
Started out as a kid with Stocks
Later Spreads and Binaries
Futures & FX
i used to work in the City of London - i have developed systems from spreadsheet stock trading systems for institutions like GMS in the 1990s, some of the first online stock trading systems for Chase and various - to whole back office systems for Interbank FX for CLS - State street Corp etc..
Anyway i quit the regulated mind blowing rules and went out on my own in 2006 – As a trader and also developer – now I can be free to create and experiment and not care about things like SOX.
I run an online small company MicroTrends which offers solutions and products for retail and Commercial traders for NinjaTrader -also i work with hedge funds and private managed futures funds working in Fix API c# environments
I have some free developers/ traders tools for creating and powering strategies in NinjaTrader and if allowed i might post some details as i would like other developers to use them and feedback etc. These are unmanaged strategy libraries which allow a developer to simply enter the logic for Trade Setup, Filter & Exits - so with just a few lines of code - even a beginner developer can leverage off the shelf signal execution, filters, order management and automatic trade management and guide any strategy in real-time via a user interface - i have created a SDK and API with open source so it’s easy to see how to use it - some vendor/educators sell less able products for many 1000s - 5K, some are powered by MTDS - others that are not compared to this system has a tonne of features and options they can simply not write or provide - and its free for sim and development... It’s called the MTDS - i'm not quite sure if i can post details here yet - links or things etc.
This seems like a place perhaps where some trader/developers might like that idea.
What i will be doing is migrating this also to NT8 it will be great to get some people to use and try it and get involved – and for them to use it and based on feedback it can evolve
thank you
