Book description
The financial industry's leading independent research firm's
forward-looking assessment into high frequency trading
Once regarded as a United States-focused trend, today, high frequency
trading is gaining momentum around the world. Yet, while high
frequency trading continues to be one of the hottest trends in the
markets, due to the highly proprietary nature of the computer
transactions, financial firms and institutions have made very little
available in terms of information or "how-to" techniques.
That's all changed with The High Frequency Game Changer: How
Automated Trading Strategies Have Revolutionized the Markets. In
the book, Zubulake and Lee present an overview of how high frequency
trading is changing the face of the market. The book
- Explains how we got here and what it means to traders and investors
- Details how to build a high frequency trading firm, including
the relevant tools, strategies, and trading talent
- Defines key components common to HFT such as algorithms, low
latency trading infrastructure, collocation etc.
The High Frequency Game Changer takes a highly controversial
and extremely complicated subject and makes it accessible to anyone
with an interest or stake in financial markets.
