Controlling Risk of Lightning High Speed Trading at High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 London

Golden Networking hosts the World’s Most Influential High-Frequency Trading Conference Series, High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 London “Strategic and Tactical Insights for Investors, Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges”, March 21 (www.High-Frequency-Trading.info).

New York City, NY, USA (March 19, 2013) — A handful of high-frequency trading firms accounted for an estimated two thirds of overall trading volume on U.S. equities markets in the last five years. One firm with such a computerized system traded over 2 billion shares in a single day in October 2008, amounting to over 10 percent of U.S. equities trading volume for the day. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this technology-dependent trading environment, and how are its risks controlled?

Carol Clark, Senior Policy Specialist in the financial markets group at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, will be joining other high-profile speakers at the most influential high-frequency trading conference in the world, Golden Networking’s High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 London, March 21 with the keynote speech “Risk Controls and High-Frequency Trading”. Anyone interested or involved in high-frequency trading will be able to gain inside knowledge at High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 (http://www.High-Frequency-Trading.info) “Strategic and Tactical Insights for Investors, Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges,” which brings insightful keynote speeches and highly regarded panels.

Ms. Clark’s work focuses on public policy issues relating to trading (high speed trading, high frequency trading and algorithmic trading), market microstructure, clearing, settlement and payments.

Prior to joining the financial markets group, Ms. Clark held a variety of positions at the Bank including national market research manager in the customer relations and support office, payments research manager in the economic research department, examiner in the capital markets unit, research coordinator in the national book-entry securities office and analyst in the loans and reserves department.

High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 (http://www.High-Frequency-Trading.info) “Strategic and Tactical Insights for Investors, Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges” will bring insights for investors and speed traders, who need to protect and refine their competitive advantage in a world dominated by algorithmic and high-frequency trading.

Topics that will be discussed at High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 include the movement toward emerging markets, which is increasingly attuned to the use of bots, and the regulatory environment, specifically how new technologies are changing the game, including a look at the upcoming regulatory changes that undoubtedly will be precipitated by Knight Capital’s trading glitch.
