York City, NY, USA (August 25, 2013) -- Edgar Perez, former
McKinsey and IBM consultant and author of The Speed Traders and
Knightmare on Wall Street, goes behind the trading operations of
firms such as Goldman Sachs in their relentless pursuit of
high-frequency trading profits with The Speed Traders Workshop DVD

On

in the options market that could be as expensive as $100 million for

confidence in the most sophisticated financial markets.
