Yes, stocks and futures was exactly what I was talking about. Though we also hit the market with options models within another couple of months.

The big costs for small firms are historic data (if you don't have any), colo, distance to exchange, and number of connections.

From the number of job specs I see, it feels like the HFT/low latency market place is healthy enough that there are always new firms appearing. It's competitive, so it's hardly surprising that if someone has new ideas they'll find a backer.
