I agree there is not much of a story here. On their website they list that they're recruiting for "Operations". This means there are humans operating the trading strategies, even if they don't call them "traders." Most firms have "operational traders" and calling them something other than traders is a little bit disingenuous. I have email correspondence with XTX regarding a "Trading Operations" job posting, so to write an article about how there are no humans involved in the process is not only not really a story, but also probably inaccurate. With all that said, they've done well so kudos to them. But is it worth a story? Probably not.
