High Frequency Trading

More or less. I remember one time they caught about 180 Swiss Franc pit traders arranging next day's quotes in the parking lot of the CME. Does anyone remember the story? Things in many respects are better now.

So performance of HFT(dark pool) depends on (like different grades of club membership/subscription i.e. how much you pay) how well you are connected to this multi-players game different 'levels' of a global network (e.g, access bigger weapons= front run leveraged indices futures, smaller weapon= front run only sector etfs, etc)... anyone know where the retail trader can subscribe to daily front runs too ?

OP, HFT is a buzz phrase that generally speaking most people don't understand and generally apply a negative connotation to.

I'd suggest you read the HFT scum thread in this section. There is some pretty good info there if you can weed out all of the BS from 777 and others.

speaking of bs, I see def tore you a new one when you spewed garbage about IB's order routing.

Have you no shame?
