Reality, logic and understanding how markets work for centuries.

And yes, markets are not fair and are not entitlement program if you did not figured it out yet.

You came to the markets to take money from other guy so do not play stupid when at the end of the day in the markets you have less money in your pocket.

You focus on small time window targeting new coined term called HFT. Before it was called something else and in the future they will change its name so you have something new as a target of your grievances and excuses why you are not successful taking money from others and instead being the patsy.

This is exactly the problem you have. Emotions prevent you from rational thinking.

What was it called before, Front Running?

 

[vicirek]

Oh you mean front running, which it was originally called, then someone just did it faster than a human could so they renamed it high frequency. If you are seriously defending HFT then I feel sorry for you cause you have no understanding of how a market or regulations work. You aren't by chance a member of the CFTC or SEC are you?

No I am not defending HFT.

HFT is the least of markets problems and that is why there is so much noise about it to cover real issues.

There is a bigger fish hiding somewhere just to name few like naked shorting, lack of proper tracking of shares and trades by market makers, order internalization, dark pools, off market activities, insider trading, market manipulation by the Fed and Big dealer banks, total lack of accountability for derivatives that play major role in market manipulation etc. Add to that GAAP (accounting by companies) with phony reporting, news dissemination practices and the like.

And on top of this CFTC and SEC are allowing for all of this and collude with big financial firms.

This is why this whole discussion about HFT is so annoying because as I said this is just smoke and mirrors and most people cannot see through and get excited about little insignificant things that really do not even affect them.

 

[gammalong]

Well I hope this noise about HFT will open some eyes, but I doubt it. HFT is tied into all the other problems you have outlined especially dark pools and everything related.
