Thanks for the "Real World" feedback on this competitor-in-the-wings.
Goes to show....building a trading platform is definitely NOT a trivial task
at all...

My hat is off to all of those hedge funds and CTAs who are running on
proprietary platforms they must maintain themselves.....it's like building
your own car and then having to maintain it yourself. The latter being the
most difficult....because the job never ends.
