The transformation from a human based trading model to an electronic model has been one of the most important technological advances of modern investing. But this transformation has not come without controversy. Instead of calling in your orders to a broker who then would execute it via a floor exchange, the order now is instantly transmitted to the various market venues. The market has a new player, but it is not a person, it is a machine that can replicate the role of a liquidity provider but at a much higher rate of speed and efficiency. Sometimes controversial and most times misunderstood, the role of the automated trader is one of major importance in today's ever-changing marketplace.

The High-Frequency Game Changer offers a forward looking overview of the high-frequency trading trend—including the movement into other asset classes, global domination, and retail traders getting into the game. The book examines who "high-frequency traders" are and analyzes the impact of high-frequency trading on the rest of the marketplace—in particular how it affects liquidity and trading strategies. The authors detail the far-reaching effects, both positive and negative, of this trend, looking at its effect on futures markets, global markets, quantitative trading, future regulatory changes, and more.

The high-frequency trader story is one of how the shift of power in a profitable business can create a firestorm of misunderstanding. The High-Frequency Game Changer cuts through the confusion and shows how you can make the most of a fundamental change in the markets that is here to stay.
