Title: Algo trading for equity/derivative
Post by David Mayers on 03/19/12 at 03:03:55

Not sure whether this is a forum for FX trading solely or not. Our company trades most of equity/derivative stocks. We are in a process of evaluating algo software platform to buy. What we would like to achieve is

1)An algo platform that allows rapid strategy development
2)A decent GUI to monitor strategy running
3)Supports FIX connections
4)Good performance per usual as we always require this:)

So far we have found this one matches most of what we need
www.cyanspring.com. The demo appl downloadable from their website seems to be impressive. They also do source code licensing which means we will be able to change all the bits we want.

I would like to see any of you have any other suggestions?

Thanks
