10+ years at the intersection of quantitative finance and distributed systems. I spent a decade watching institutions win with better tools. So I built one. GFIL Terminal is the infrastructure I always wanted — real-time WebSocket data (sub-50ms), institutional-grade order flow analysis, and multi-model AI integration. No gatekeepers, no compromises. I don't use Bloomberg. I built my own.
