Post by: codymanix on October 07, 2011, 10:20:15 AM
Hi folks,

is it somehow possible on tradehill to get more than 10% discount like the high volume discounts on mtgox?
Does anybody know something?

Or maybe for those of us that are not high speed bot traders could get one free trade every now and again? Meh, I just dislike bot trading.

In a word, algorithms.

"Kevin Slavin argues that we're living in a world designed for -- and increasingly controlled by -- algorithms. In this riveting talk from TEDGlobal, he shows how these complex computer programs determine: espionage tactics, stock prices, movie scripts, and architecture. And he warns that we are writing code we can't understand, with implications we can't control."

Hi Codymanix,

Yes - we have improved rates based on volume. Generally, you must trade over 15k USD per week to start getting price breaks.

Send an email to info@tradehill.com and we can discuss further.

Adam
