High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2010 DVD to Feature "Seis De Mayo, the Day HFT was Vindicated"

June 7, 2010 - PRLog -- "Seis De Mayo, the Day High-Frequency Traders were Vindicated", keynote by Mr. Manoj Narang, Founder and CEO of Tradeworx, at GoldenNetworking.net's High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2010, "Innovating and Profiting from High-Frequency Trading in 2010 and Beyond" is now available on a 6-disc DVD Video Package, at http://www.HFTLeadersForum.com.

At GoldenNetworking.net's High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2010 DVD Video Package, Mr. Narang is on a mission to re-brand the flash crash, "Seis De Mayo." "I want to call it Seis De Mayo because I believe it's a vindication day for high frequency traders. I think that fingers were very quick to be pointed in the direction of High-Frequency Trading for this meltdown; I think that the post-mortem has not been written yet on this episode, but what's abundantly clear is that like has been the case in every other crisis in recent memory, humans were intimately involved and fully responsible for this particular meltdown as well."
Mr. Narang is the Founder and CEO of Tradeworx, Inc., a leading financial technology and trading firm whose mission is to democratize the role of advanced technology in the financial markets. Through its subsidiary Thesys LLC, the firm offers a world-class trading infrastructure to investors with high-performance trading needs. Tradeworx also operates a successful and growing quantitative hedge fund business (which currently manages over $500M in assets), as well as an in-house proprietary trading business focused on high frequency trading strategies. Overall, the strategies generate nearly 100 million shares per day of volume in the US Equity market. Tradeworx has been profiled extensively in the print media, including Reuters, The New York Times, and MIT's Technology Review magazine. In addition, Mr. Narang has appeared on CNBC and PBS's Nightly Business Report in order to discuss the role of HFT in today's equity market. Mr. Narang has held a variety of technology, research, and quantitative trading positions at several major Wall Street firms. He graduated from MIT in 1991, where he studied Mathematics and Computer Science.
