Click trading? Calling your broker and having them trade for you? Old school open outcry trading. Algorithmic Trading might be better?

- kgwgk 10y agoBefore you seemed to apply the term essentially to HFT only ("Most real electronic trading firms are putting those algorithms in hardware"), now it seems to include all the "systematic" trading. Or maybe only when fully automated? (I imagine low-frequency startegies might still require some human clicks). And even if I call my broker, and he clicks somewhere to enter the order, it's still executed by some HFT agent somewhere. And the same applies to low frequency strategies, I guess (why bother with the execution details, just use a broker).
