How We Work
If you have a query then the first thing to do is to contact us to discuss what you have in mind. If it’s something that we can help you with then we will give you an idea of how much it might cost. We normally charge by the hour and so would typically give you a quote for the number of hours the project might take, though sometimes this will be a range of hours if there is some uncertainty over what it required. Payment for small projects is normally in advance though for larger projects payment will be made on a mutually agreed basis
API Programming
We have done a variety of different programming projects over the years with various different datafeed and trading platform API’s, including Oanda, IG Index, Interactive Brokers, Betfair, GFT, GNI, Hotspot & Saxo Bank. Typically we would use C++ though we have used .Net and C# as well. Projects have included collecting real-time data, a complete real-time charting package and various automated trading programs and algo’s. We have also worked with FIX trading protocol
Trading Strategy Research and Development
We spent ten years working for one of the top hedge funds in the world developing bespoke trading strategies for them which were then traded by the fund with a peak of $800 million of funds traded with them. We are intimated familiar with all the pitfalls of trading strategy development including over-optimisation and systematic modelling errors etc. We have written our own comprehensive back-test platform from scratch to do this research
Over the years we have looked into all sorts of approaches including neural networks, genetic optimisation. We have also worked on an exotic option pricing software platform and worked on programmable pay-off functions for options.
