Our in-depth coverage of high frequency trading continued this week.
We dug deep into many of the questions raised by Michael Lewis’ groundbreaking new book, “Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt.” Specifically, we examined how to protect yourself from predatory trading on Wall Street. We contemplated the secret to beating high-frequency trading. And we shined the spotlight on the real hero of “Flash Boys,” Brad Katsuyama.
