    He didn't mention English. Could easily have been Electrical Engineering. An armature is a common term there.

    Nobody refers to their phd as from an Ivy league. They say which school.

  5. that only means you did not understand my post. the purpose of my post said PhD is nothing, thus, listing my phd from yale or Princeton has no meaning. On the other hand, I am not looking for a job, so i do not need to say where exactly I graduated from.

    I never feel proud I have a phd from a famous univ, as contrary to the OP here. sometimes as one poster said, phd has nothing to do with trading success.

  7. that is nonsense. Many HFT strategies can run with 5-8 Sharpe ratios. It all depends on how you calculate Sharpe ratios. If you have hundreds or thousands of trades per day and calculate daily Sharpe ratios then a profitable HFT strategy MUST end up with >3 Sharp ratios if it is any good at all.

    You are not going to get any serious attention with spelling errors like:

    "Our only mission is to develop hihgly successful trading..."

    Ten PhDs working there and nobody knows how to spell "highly"?

  9. I think you should not put too much emphasis on op's English, because English is not his first language. On the other hand, English has nothing to do with the quality of the scientific research.

    if you write in Chinese, I believe you would make more errors.

    actually, I do not believe op's statement that 10 PhDs involved in his project, because developing trading strategy is a very lonely path.
