there are lots of good takes here… they’re just mostly tame posts from underfollowed anon accounts and aren’t hyped as “alpha” you can improve your alpha by reading stuff here, nobody is going to just show you the way tho

I treat FinTwit posts like I treated sales-trader notes. Big picturish ideas with solid data and judicious thesis = good. Specific names/recommendations (usually with charts) = prob has an agenda

Don't use fix use binary protocols if you can, better latency

What are the differences? I've setup tons of new trading accounts and every time we get to the technicals, ie: "do you guys want to use FIX?" I would just loop in support staff.

Fields are in fixed positions and don't require parsing by a fix engine when you trade binary protocols, saves some compute cycles. Fix more flexible and human friendly but you lose out on speed
