physicsman...I think this last statement answers your question...141 will use STv2 as their base platform for their trading systems and have revenue sharing plan too...I think that they are also saying that 141 will also use any means available to create the best trading platform for their purposes. It looks as though 141 was simply covering all their bases. allie
Initially, 141 will concentrate on trading SWARM and several other proprietary systems currently being developed by 141 for the energy sector. As a trading systems incubator, 141 will engage in the development of high frequency algorithmic systems to be co-located at the exchanges in order to facilitate low-latency (fast) execution. It is intended that most trading system development will occur on the SpoozToolz™ platform, and that some selected trading systems will be marketed on a limited basis through Spooz, Inc., via a revenue sharing plan.
