By: The Speed Traders CNBC’s Antonya Allen pointed out that social media websites like Twitter and Facebook have become increasingly important to high frequency traders looking to anticipate market moves before they happen; however, she asked, could they eventually become as significant as traditional business news providers in the world of high speed trading? Edgar Perez, author of The Speed Traders: An Insider's Look at the New High-Frequency Trading Phenomenon That Is Transforming the Investing World, said he has not come across a trader who had made money from information supplied on social networking sites. In his book, Perez follows six high speed traders and examines how ultra fast trading could develop in the future. "I would be very interested in seeing cases where people actually made money using information from Twitter. Remember there's a lag there of time and with high frequency trading you want to make sure you connect directly and don't have any third party providers for information," Mr. Perez is widely regarded as the preeminent speaker and networker in the specialized area of high-frequency trading.
