High freq trading

Some guys coiled up 38 miles of fiber to fuck the HFT guys - cost them a lot of microseconds

So they could beat them with a straight one

Is this on the commodity board? I thought the NYSE fixed that issue?

Sorry, but what?

Mens a corpore separantur

Typical bds ramblings.

It applies to you also - more then anyone

Who is “they”? Who is “them”? What is “one”?

Nouns have salience.

A group of traders were getting fucked by the hft traders front running their trades - so they found a way to stop it by putting 38 miles of fiber (that would fit into a shoe box) between the exchange and the building the orders had to be routed through - this slowed them down 300 milliseconds which is enuf to bury them

it’s more then complicated and their efforts cost tens of millions
