Thought I would give a quick update, and you all know that the trade system is coming along great. I should have it complete by Monday (give or take a day).
"The great Traders have always been humbled by the market early on in their careers creating a deep respect for the market. Until one has this respect indelibly engraved in their makeup, the concept of money management and discipline will never be treated seriously."
Hopefully its not to hard to follow.. But if I post a system with my name associated to it I'm going to make sure it is good.
It will be worth the wait.
Cheers,
Sody

It is not clear to me -- Is this publication freely available by the source? If it is not freely available, it needs to be removed immediately from futures.io (formerly BMT) as we don't allow copyrighted works (pirated material). Please reply ASAP.
Am not sure or not if it available freely or not. Please remove immediately. I have a subscription to S&C and I know they have some articles freely available. But I am not sure if this is one of them.
I will do more research and make sure it is before reposting.
Thanks Mike

Wow Fortran over C#.. How dare you sir.. And to insult numPy as well; let's leave Python out of it. The fact is simple. Fortran and C++ is still relevant to UHFT because of the speed. This journal thankfully is not about HFT and not all quant trading is HFT.
Unless we are here to compare how many Cuda's we have stacked for our parallel processes I'm going to try and move past this code talk.
I apologize if joking about C++ offended you. C# in this case is a necessity to ninjatrader, personally, my trading stack outside of Ninja and beyond the scope of this journal is Python.

Just to emphasize: I prefer these languages over C# because of their ease of development and availability of tools, and I didn't mention that speed was a deciding factor.
Oh no, no offense taken at all. @Limitless100 just wanted to hear my thoughts on C++, MATLAB, R and C# in reference to what you had mentioned.
Python is my go-to language for almost anything that takes less than 40 lines to express. But to wrap up on my point to @Limitless100 that I prefer to be language-agnostic, take this for example: How would I write a Python script that recursively checks if Quantopian's Zipline is a poorly-written library only designed for single-core processing at the application level? I can do this very quickly in Perl, but not Python:
Every language has its elegant side, I'd learn many and choose whatever makes you feel comfortable and productive.
Anyway, I agree that we should move past a debate about programming languages.
Just added my two cents, that I see value in C++ and Fortran when it comes to speed. But (at least for me) I find C# easier to code in than C++ (Fortran I have very little experience) . Completely, agree that the language depends on the project your working on.
Thanks for your input to my journal!
