You will find in this book exclusive interviews of renowned specialists about market microstructure and high-frequency trading strategies on lit markets and Dark Pools.
This book was developed following extensive research to democratize as many aspects as possible on US and European market microstructure, high-frequency trading strategies and Dark Pools.
Today, financial markets have become extremely complex. Market automation and new regulations have encouraged the emergence of new market players: high-frequency traders. These new players hold intraday positions. They deploy their specific orders and arbitrage strategies across multiple markets at close to the speed of light to get the best prices and to trade ahead of other market participants.
Dark Pools, whose operations are also difficult to understand for most professionals, have been created, adding complexity to financial markets. Dark Pools seems a little bit scary. However, we will see that Dark Pools are advantageous in terms of price compared to regulated markets.
“Fantastic job explaining some tough to understand topics.” – Joe Saluzzi, Partner and co-founder of Themis Trading and co-author of the book Broken Markets.
William’s message: “High-frequency trading is a small world that is difficult to access. I have spent a large part of this last year writing this book, taking into account the interviews I have been able to carry out in order to democratize as many aspects as possible. Many thanks to Joe Saluzzi, Alexandre Laumonier, Dave Lauer, Benoît Lallemand, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud and Donald MacKenzie. This book will help you to better understand the winning strategies of high-frequency trading firms.”
