Not really the point....

After a while the whole range of "sniper" "covert", "stealth", "hunter-killer" starts to merge into one long list of silly names that bear no meaning to a buy-side dealer who is trying to work out how to deal a large-ish amount of an illiquid German mid-cap stock.

My point really is, drop the silly marketing names and make the names align with the functionality offered by the algo.
