I can't think that fast let alone use the keyboard successfully at that speed.

This article is a bit silly... Firstly, this average isn't too meaningful. Secondly, this whole "computer reading the news" thing has been going on for years. It's not like this is some sort of a recent development.

I only found out when I watched Alchemists of Wall Street a few months back. Before that I assumed algo trading was a load of ultra complex maths that "solved the market" .

On a related note, I read somewhere that there is a hedge fund opening up using an algo that reads twitter.

Reading twitter? That sounds like a really dangerous idea. I would think it pretty easy to create Buzz, good or bad.

I'm not talking to you, Arabian.

You've stood me up one too many times!

 

[Martinghoul]

Yeah, it's a Twitter-based sentiment stuff... Sounds a bit silly, tbh.

HTF they convince people to back them is what I confuses me.

I'd rather buy ice cream vans... good margins them.

ice cream vans tend to be controlled by drug king pins

 

[scose-no-doubt]

Yes I know. Told you you'd miss out if you stood me up.
