Speaking of dark pools, there is a book called "Dark pools : high-speed traders, A.I. bandits, and the threat to the global financial system", has anybody read it?
From the cover :
"A news-breaking account of the global stock market's subterranean battles, Dark Pools portrays the rise of the "bots"- artificially intelligent systems that execute trades in milliseconds and use the cover of darkness to out-maneuver the humans who've created them."
