Very neat. After a brief foray into reading about HFT, I've started reading more about algorithmic (non-HFT) trading.
I'd love to hear if other HN readers are playing with algorithmic trading. I occasionally think quantitative trading would be fun because of the intersection of math/stats and CS. Of course, that's an "in the abstract" statement. Depending on it for my mortgage would be . . . different.
- chollida1 12y agoI do algorithmic trading, and write the underlying systems and algos, for a living, not high frequency, though I did once get to 200 messages a second:) The stress is always there, though you become desensitized to it after a while, or you just quit in a stress induced rage:( I'm Canadian so my knowledge is skewed to the Canadian markets. My email is in my profile if you'd like to chat.
