Yep, you are correct. It wasn't the point of the video only an observation that you rather observed or didn't, which was my original question. What do you think about my original question now?

People use algorithms to replace humans. It still stays a zero sum game if you don't have a competitive edge.

The main point he missed at the very end is that Wall St will be there to take advantage of AI or AI augmentation way before an average person. So nothing will change. What we really need is a new exchange where each bid costs money, where the order of trades is randomized, where trades take random amount of time to execute (let's say, up to 1 minute). This will instantly stop all the high-frequency trading.

I like the idea of a dollar value for each bid, though if companies are willing to spend billions on cable to make their HFTs milliseconds faster they can find a risk/loss point on how many bids they can put in and still make money.

augiedauggie Right. But for these trading firms, they make a lot of money from this kind of short term fluctuation. In the end, if the stock price never changes, how do you make money from it? The more it changes, the more potential to make money from it. The faster it changes, the faster they make money from it. If you make $100 by holding the stock for a whole year, they can make the same amount of money in 1 day from the fluctuation.

A middle-man C either because of fore-knowledge of the event or other conditions takes the 100 from B instead and extracts 5% for himself and then transfers 95 to A and calls it a trade. The reality of the numbers though is fractions of fractions. A wants 100, B gives C 100, C gives A 99.9999. A is satisfied with that result. C produced and did nothing, and has no reason to exist.

Which programming language is used for execution in HFT ?

Hi, Thanks for your video! I wonder if you've given thought to this strategy: often traders lose money because their stop loss gets hit and the price bounces back but the trader is no longer holding that position. What if you can write code that upon your stop loss sale, you place a limit order to buy back at the sale price? And then on the upside, you set a trailing stop loss (and if the trailing stop loss gets hit, you’d also place a limit order to rebuy the stock at the stop loss price) This strategy essentially limits your downside and lets you participate more fully on the upside, and takes the “art” out of guessing the optimal stop loss and take profit price levels. I wonder if you’ve ever considered this strategy and if you see any problems with it. Thanks in advance for your response :)

Is it our world or the machine's? Which century do you want to live in? If you expect to use your credit card at wal-mart, or to pay your bills online, or to get real-time and ACCURATE exchange rates and commodity prices, you need algorithms. Do we work for the machines? No; they work for us- and when crashes happen because a human wasn't perfect in programming that algorithm, is it of any value to blame the machines? Should I blame my computer for being vulnerable to hackers, or should I blame the programmers for leaving/exploiting holes in my system, or better yet should I blame myself for investing in a flawed device to begin with? When it comes to the markets, it's not the machines that devalue your IRA-- it's the banks that you have given your money to that use flawed systems to manage your retirement. Perhaps the loss of wealth in our country hasn't been because of technology, but rather the collective failure of an entire industry to better understand technology's implications in our modern world? "We use mathematics to make (our complex world) simpler" says Mr. Gourley. Except mathematics make up our complex world to begin with. It's a universal truth. It's up to us to evolve our mathematical understanding in order to make our ever changing world simpler, not the other way around. Never before has the market been so efficient, so fair, so liquid, so accessible, and so affordable for the little guy, and that's all thanks to algo's and high frequency trading. Stop being afraid of what these fear mongers say and take control of your own wealth and financial future. Or at the very least, don't expect someone who only pretends to know more than you to honestly care about your finances any more than you would.

That's simply false. We already have AI that is better in specialized fields than it's creator. it's just a matter of time the same will happen with trading. We already have cracked the game of "Go", we have AI that wins tournaments of Texas Hold'em, Deep Blue kills chess. There are several ML paths to take and deep learning is just one of them. Algorithms get better every day and no - they do not depend on the knowledge of the creator in the respective field the AI is used in. If the AI was only as good as the creator then none of those advances would've been possible. How would you beat the world's best GO player with an AI if it wasn't made by the world's best GO player then? I can throw an AI at an atari game without knowing anything about it and this AI will be better than any human being in no time. The AI doesn't know it's playing a game, neither does it know how it works. It simply tries to optimize a function (in that case winning the game, by throwing outputs at it) based on the given inputs (in that case the raw pixel data). At no time at all has the creator of such an AI anything to do with the games themselves. In fact considering deep neural nets we don't even know exactly what's going on within hidden layers of the net. We have a vague understanding but we don't know exactly. Taking computer vision as an example: throw a picture through a bunch of convolution layers, throw some normal invisible layers behind that, and an output layer. What does it do? it spits out numbers based on the input. Nice now throw backwards propagation at it. what you now have is a basic convolutional neural network that doesn't know anything about it's task. now throw millions of pictures at it and tell it to maximize the functions to output "cat" and every time there is no cat in the picture you simply tell it "wrong". this net - that doesn't know jack about cats or pictures or what ever - will eventually be able to identify whether or not a cat is in a given picture with quite a remarkable accuracy. that without the creator ever describing what the hell a cat even is and what the algorithm should look for. You then could take that very same algorithm and do the same with everything else that is a classification problem. And now guess what trading - buy vs sell in simple terms - is. Now just like we haven't solved computer vision we haven't solved trading and many other classification problems - yet.

It's STILL our world. We're not helpless damsels in distress unless you just feel better about complaining.

High frequency trading is high speed front running. A computer housed in the exchange detects a order on its way to the market, lets say to buy 1000 shares of ABC. The computer then places an order in front of that order and buys the shares and then sells to the real buyer of the 1000 shares. If you did the manual equivalent this you could go to jail. But because the high frequency traders pay the exchange a lot of money its ok. This is just corrupt bullshit.

He was saying that algos are taking over markets and we are no longer living in the same world (the nanoseconds world). Then to take on that world we need some super human type of exoskeleton.... in the form of artificial intelligence (which is another form of algorithm) and still humans are limited to 650-900 milliseconds. Does he really think any human can follow what that artificial intelligence is doing at nanoseconds?In his Augmented Intelligence explanation on how to do this, one can only analyze the data AFTER THE FACT through visualizations or math. Which basically what he has done when he is showing charts from NANEX data visualizations. He is not solving anything. I am not defending any of the trading algorithms but I can tell you this, with a rule based trading algorithm, you can more readily understand the rules and ascertain if the rules of those algorithms caused the crash ( which some had proven it was, such as BATS crash). You can then formulate mitigating rules to prevent it. With AI based algorithm it is a black box unless you build into that AI that it can explain its actions. Let's say if it was built upon neural network, you cannot really understand what its rules are and what it is doing, it is even worse. Just because AI is improving a lot does not mean it is the solution for everything. He had said it himself, why should an algorithm which lived in nanosecond world decides our world, yet his solution is to put more algorithm in. The solution is simple, put a speed limit, something that IEX is doing though I think IEX can and should slow down the speed further.

@alexusanin1632

TO give you an example of an exoskeleton in this case: instead of having algo trade right away, you have an algo that scans the news and tracks the markets. It foresees the news, foresees the upcoming crash from all other algos that trade, and then notifies you. Yo have 7-10 minutes before market goes back to normal, so you buy low, and sell as soon as price approaches the normal again. If there were microcrashes recorded, they have something in common most likely. So here Algo is not taking decision to trade, but is notifying you that something is coming.
