Oct. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Golden Networking is inviting Thursday October 27 the liveliest audience of high-frequency and quantitative trading professionals to mingle at High-Frequency Trading Happy Hour, http://hfthappyhourhongkong.eventbrite.com, now for the second time in Hong Kong. High-Frequency Trading Happy Hour, featured in The Wall Street Journal, congregates high-frequency (and some low-frequency too) traders, quants, managers, investors and key decision makers for evenings of networking and cocktails.

High frequency trading already accounts for the majority of all trading in the United States and Europe, and now it is ready to explode onto the scene in Hong Kong and other Asian markets.

High frequency trading (HFT) implies speed, with computers making lightning-fast trades, and brokerages, often trading on their own account, holding positions for as little as a few seconds.

The latest country to get caught up in the high frequency trading buzz is Switzerland. According to CNBC’s Carolin Schober, the Swiss Exchange announced it is launching a high frequency trading platform in the first half of 2012 in a bid to snap up a slice of this growing high frequency trading (HFT) revenues pie.

The so-called “co-location” system allows trades to be processed in under 100 micro seconds – a fraction of the time traditional trading systems take.

Under the co-location concept, the exchange server and the client’s trading systems are located in the same room and can thus transmit orders more quickly.

High-frequency traders typically make profits by exploiting price inefficiencies by entering a string of small orders at very high speed and exiting the trades within seconds.
