RE:RE:The stock is driven down by algorithms and HFT
Iamwcw, I'll point out that I thought much the same as you regarding HFTrs messing with small caps. Then I did some research. I would suggest that you take some time to get current on the HFT templates available to everyone that fit right into your discount brokerage. There are those that firmly believe all trading in the future will be by HFT Algo trading programs. I doubt that, but, certainly outfits are marketing to the Mom and Pop investors. Of course, they are being sold an economy car that they take to Indianapolis and get outrun by all the Hedgies, but make no mistake-- HFT programs are being used by a lot of Pump Jockeys and School Teachers.
