It's easily mitigated by submitting your order 16 nanoseconds sooner. Imagine UPS complained to the Feds that FedEx had an unfair advantage because they bought faster planes... And actually it isn't very easy because nothing trave

The market is already illiquid at this demand / timescale which is why the order is being partially filled, if you spread it out over 5 minutes there'd be no problem finding that much liquidity.

Whichever order fulfills the rules of the jurisdiction the exchange resides in, I believe in the US that would mean the order that came in first. In general orders are serialized first and then processed according to the order that was seri

Because people who trade stock prefer it that way. You're free to setup a market that works in this way, and if consumers prefer it you'll make millions. I'd hazard a guess because the point of markets is to disseminate infor

Because you may no longer wish to sell at that price. Similar to the way that if you have a house on the market and someone makes an offer you don't have to accept it.

Yes, Google "LMAX Architecture", only the tape is written to disk. The order book itself is tiny and there are only ~20,000 stocks, and you only have to fit one stock per computer.

Imagine you live in a city and there are currently 1000 houses on the market, you take out an ad in the news paper telling everyone that there are only 1000 and you want to buy 900 of them. Someone wakes up at 6 AM reads the paper and phone

It's not really irrelevant considering the paper outlines that it's important to keep data in the same rack. Disk locality is not that important when you're fully async, as throughput tends to be similar, however, if your cod

Heat flow is akin to 'information' flow in a neural net because the weight of a node is the sum/average of the weights of all nodes it's connected to just like the heat of a node is the sum/average of the weights of

Not at all, taxes should be used to make investments in the economy where the market fails, a government that spends wisely will grow its economy and thus its tax revenue without changing rates. A tax dodge is not unlike a government with l

The AI would whitelist traffic, those streams pass through quickly, everything else gets filtered. The problem is your CPUs filter traffic faster than your NICs accept it, thus dropped packets, thus unhappy customers.
