I’m probably an ideal candidate for something like this but I’d much rather have someone walk me through setting my own thing up, rather than them handing me a bunch of preconfigured stuff that leaves me just as clueless.
If it came bundled around a bunch of DIY guides explaining the hows and the whys, it’d be far more appealling
That feel when you order 5 burgers alone and they ask “to go?” and you nonchalantly say “naw”
They basically made a synopsis of this article like the vultures they are. RIP journalism. Anywho this is worth a read but doesn’t expound much on the ‘why’, aside from him explaining that the core of a good game is the general congruency between the events in the story and the world in which the story occurs
If you’re HFT/scalping you’ll almost always be trading DMA in which case you’ll almost always have per-share commission, usually less than .005

Help them get their foot in the door by making the dive a little less scary. Nothing too over the top but point them to the places where people hang out discussing the more technical crap for when that day comes
