High-Frequency Trading Experts Workshop DVD Video Package, From Hong Kong to your PC

June 12, 2011 - PRLog -- High-Frequency Trading Experts Workshop, "Practical Implementation of High-Frequency Trading Strategies", is now available on DVD at http://www.HFTExpertsWorkshop.com. High-frequency trading has changed trading and has become a heated topic of discussion within the finance industry. An article from The New York Times described high-frequency trading as “one of the most talked-about and mysterious forces in the markets.” This DVD Video Package will provide an understanding of the requirements to develop sophisticated high-frequency trading platforms, a hands-on understanding of high-frequency trading in practice, market microstructure with high-frequency trading and new high-frequency strategies, including arbitrage, news and social networking based.

“Powerful computers, some housed right next to the machines that drive marketplaces like the New York Stock Exchange, enable high-frequency traders to transmit millions of orders at lightning speed and, their detractors contend, reap billions at everyone else’s expense. These systems are so fast they can outsmart or outrun other investors, humans and computers alike. “This is where all the money is getting made,” said William H. Donaldson, former chairman and chief executive of the New York Stock Exchange and today an adviser to a big hedge fund. “If an individual investor doesn’t have the means to keep up, they’re at a huge disadvantage.

Powerful algorithms, “algos,” in industry parlance, execute millions of orders a second and scan dozens of public and private marketplaces simultaneously. They can spot trends before other investors can blink, changing orders and strategies within milliseconds. “It’s become a technological arms race, and what separates winners and losers is how fast they can move,” said Joseph M. Mecane of NYSE Euronext, which operates the New York Stock Exchange.”
