High Frequency Trading.

Opinions? Suggestions?

High frequency trading: A SINGLE ICMP request can lose an entire business 7 million dollars.

If you are behind on trading for a microsecond, the impact is approximately -7 million dollars... A couple of bank executives were talking about this on Planet Money.

Don't do it. If your interested in trading, just some simple intraday trading is good enough for the layman.

I'd agree, but we've got some interesting volatility going on this year. It may be bear for our parents 401ks, but it's a golden age for day traders.
