New
York City, NY, USA (May 28, 2013) -- An enlightening read is how
John Siewers III, a commodity broker for more than 20 years with 15
years experience on the Chicago trading floors, summarizes Edgar
Perez's book, The
Speed Traders for Futures Magazine. "When a
successful money making machine enters the picture, the expansion
from the few to the many will occur naturally. The book is very clear
on the evolutionary line. Perez has cornered a few of the success
stories and had the luck/gumption to interrogate (er, interview) the
few who would sit for it. It's seems to be a cross technique he
follows, while not exactly exposing the traders, and not exactly a
promotional piece. I am sure their publicist, if they have one,
couldn't have been happier."
"The
fact that active players in this high-speed shuffle have different
ideas of what constitutes high-frequency trading is logical when a
new strategy evolves out of breathtakingly fast technological
changes. High-frequency trading developers and entrepreneurs have
chosen to remain, from inception through the recent flurry of
regulation, litigation and bad press, in the shadows as any extremely
profitable format of trading logically would. Many rumors and
preconceived ideas have sprung up among the general public as well as
the animosity of more traditional investors. As a natural result a
continuation of secrecy remains, as you would expect in any number of
highly successfully systems. An insider's look is right. Perez does a
fine job of laying out the argument FOR high frequency trading."
