HFT (kinda) from home

Hi guys,

​

I wonder are there people here running HTF (ish) algorithms from home? I am in the process of writing down my strategy which basically is a scalping strategy that will act on orderbooks of different assets..

Do you think that HFT from home can be a waste of time considering big-boys out there with big *ss equipment and brains are already tried/trying it?

Feel free to share some info on your experience/concept if you are working on any similar idea.

Thanks!
