The Inbox: Listener questions and comments

  • Question from Angelo Myers - Loved the deep dive into FPGAs last episode. I am a hardware wonk. What other hardware developments do you feel have been crucial to the trading landscape? Options or just general financial?
  • Question from JimWow -Hello team! Can you please explain what a complex order book is and how it works?
  • Question from Bill Williams - Lots of talk about putting a speed bump into the market to stop or slow down HFT jerks. Thoughts? Will it work or will the Cybermen just figure out a way around it?
