- newdude 6y agoI don't get it. Reminds me of a blog post were the guy discussed a Portuguese stock, construction industry if my memory does not fail me, that has a "very low" trading volume. When I looked up the stock, (I think the stock was very expensive), trading volume was like 1 Share every 6 months or so. Yes, I guess you could call this "very low" trading volume. So where would HTF come in here?
- smabie 6y agoAn HFT would list buy and sell orders on the book so that if you wanted to buy or sell, you always could.
