500 lines of code! Guess here what stolen SocGen strategy can be

  1. First I guessed it was market making or scalping using level 2 quotes or market depth.
    Even analyzing several markets 500 lines is too much.

    So I guess it's a S&P 500 components vs. futures arbitrage.

    Make your best guess of the strategy here.
     
  2. 500 lines is nothing
     
  3. 10 WHILE FEDMONEY>0
    20 IF (RAND(0)>0.5)
    30 BUY
    40 ELSE
    50 SELL
    60 END
    70 IF PROFIT >0
    80 COLLECT(BONUS)
    90 ELSE
    100 COLLECT(BAILOUT)
    110 END
    120 END
