It’s funny hearing them talking about the Dow being down 200 points back then as catastrophic. Now it can move 200 points in a minute or two and it’s just an ordinary day.

“Flash Boys” by Michael Lewis

He is describing exchange arbitrage, where you buy in one exchange and sell on another while price has not been updated. Do this at the speed of light, and you make profit, but it also creates a "flash crash". The rest of traders get the worst execution possible due to high frequency orders being filled at light speeds. Whose at fault? The exchanges, brokers, investment banks for filling orders at high frequency speeds. They are obviously aware of this but it's a round business for them. There won't be "regulation" unless there is a high demand for it, most people are too lazy and unaware to even do anything about it, just like he mentioned.

No arbitrage is completely risk-free. Not even for high frequency trading machines. It's just that the potential for loss is less than the potential for profit.

Arbitrage is the simultaneous purchase and sale of an asset in different markets to exploit tiny differences in their prices

Why did the data map show Washington D.C. connected to chicago and new york?

the solution is to do away with derivatives. First, the issue according to this documentary is options contracts. those that know these contracts are aware of their leveraged value and the fact that the future value is determined by a complex formula comprising in part by volatility and time to expiration. Second, dark pools must be dissolved. Dark pools are how the elite make money over the everyday trader, they basically get to trade in secret only to be revealed the next day, this is akin to a poker player getting to see every 2nd card of the next 10 cards in the deck. Of course none of this will ever be fixed. Those that make the rules and those that enforce them are paid off by those that benefit from circumventing them or exploiting loopholes that have purposefully been put in place for them.

front running is illegal, right?

@ScottAllenFinance

16 күн бұрын

It is, but HFT generally isn't considered front-running. Front running (as defined by the SEC) is trading on non-public advance knowledge of a large incoming order. The HFT dorks don't have advance knowledge of orders, they just have faster connections and can get an order out right after the retail order hits the first exchange quickly enough before the retail order gets filled. It's a question of internal speed and latency. What the HFTs do is take advantage of the fact that they pay millions of dollars in server rack space leasing fees to put their black boxes next to the black boxes that the stock market runs on, essentially. Basically, it's buying faster access and then quickly stepping on your toes to make their 1/2 a penny or whatever it is now. Real honest business ya got there, boys... wow... I mean, pathetic really if you think about it: this is what finance has become.... they can't make an honest buck by doing anything, well, honest, so they have to trick retail investors and make a piece of every trade. What a joke. HFT should be illegal, despite the "we provide liquidity which democratized finance" BS lines that they love to throw around ever since 2020 or so..... I personally think they're quite dumb and full of hubris. There is nothing honorable AT ALL about this type of "trading." It's manipulative, insidious, and basically theft....

under the right conditions it's very easy to know what quadrant of the wheel the ball will fall. Whether it stays in that quadrant depends on what it hits (or does not hit). So if it hits something you dont expect, oh well , and you're back to normal roulette odds - roughly 50/50. But in the cases where it does not bounce around and stays in the quadrant you expect, you can take advantage of that knowledge. It's not a case of needing to predict exactly what slot it will fall in (that's impossible), you just need to increase your chances above the norm. It does take a concealed device, which has been illegal in all casinos for 20 years, so its a moot point.
