  • Informational Inequality: How High Frequency Traders Use Premier Access to Information to Prey on Institutional Investors
    INFORMATIONAL INEQUALITY: HOW HIGH FREQUENCY TRADERS USE PREMIER ACCESS TO INFORMATION TO PREY ON INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS † JACOB ADRIAN ABSTRACT In recent months, Wall Street has been whipped into a frenzy following the March 31st release of Michael Lewis’ book “Flash Boys.” In the book, Lewis characterizes the stock market as being rigged, which has institutional investors and outside observers alike demanding some sort of SEC action. The vast majority of this criticism is aimed at high-frequency traders, who use complex computer algorithms to execute trades several times faster than the blink of an eye. One of the many complaints against high-frequency traders is over parasitic trading practices, such as front-running. Front-running, in the era of high-frequency trading, is best defined as using the knowledge of a large impending trade to take a favorable position in the market before that trade is executed. Put simply, these traders are able to jump in front of a trade before it can be completed. This Note explains how high-frequency traders are able to front- run trades using superior access to information, and examines several proposed SEC responses. INTRODUCTION If asked to envision what trading looks like on the New York Stock Exchange, most people who do not follow the U.S. securities market would likely picture a bunch of brokers standing around on the trading floor, yelling and waving pieces of paper in the air. Ten years ago they would have been absolutely right, but the stock market has undergone radical changes in the last decade. It has shifted from one dominated by manual trading at a physical location to a vast network of interconnected and automated trading systems.1 Technological advances that simplified how orders are generated, routed, and executed have fostered the changes in market † J.D.

  • Dark Pool Reference Price Latency Arbitrage∗
    Dark Pool Reference Price Latency Arbitrage∗ Matteo Aquilina,y Sean Foley,z Peter O'Neillx and Thomas Ruf{ May 10, 2017 Abstract Using proprietary order book data with participant-level message traffic and matching engine time stamps, we investigate the nature of stale reference pricing in dark pools. We document a sizeable proportion of stale trading which imposes large adverse selection on the passive side in dark pools. We are the first to document that HFTs almost never provide liquidity and instead frequently take liquidity in the dark, in particular in order to take advantage of stale quotes in the dark. Finally, we examine several market design inter- ventions to mitigate stale trades, showing that only mechanisms to protect passive dark liquidity, such as random uncrossings, are effective. Keywords: high-frequency trading, dark pools, latency arbitrage, reference prices ∗We would like to thank Michael Aitken, Peter Andrews, Hao Ming Chen, Brian Eyles, Simon Hargreaves, Edwin Schooling Latter, Ted Macdonald, Albert Menkveld, Richard Payne, Talis Put- nins, Jia Shao, Patrick Spens, Felix Suntheim, Martin Taylor, Carla Ysusi and Bart Z.

  • Mr. Brad Katsuyama
    Testimony of Investors Exchange Chief Executive Officer Bradley Katsuyama Before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services Subcommittee on Capital Markets, Securities, and Investment June 27, 2017 Introduction Chairman Huizenga, Ranking Member Maloney and members of the Subcommittee, my name is Brad Katsuyama and I am the CEO of IEX Group, Inc. and Investors Exchange LLC, more commonly known as “IEX”. I appreciate the opportunity to offer this testimony and also appreciate your willingness to provide a forum to consider ways to strengthen the U.S. equity markets. The U.S. equity markets constitute a critical national asset. They provide a vital source of capital for companies, large and small, and they provide the chance for millions of ordinary Americans to help fund and participate in the benefits of economic growth. From my perspective, the question we should always consider is whether the markets are primarily focused on serving the interests of investors and public companies, and the value of any agenda items should be determined based on whether they advance or detract from this primary focus. If the equity markets are not adequately serving these constituents and advancing the principles of fairness, transparency, and trust, then action must be taken to re-focus the markets on these tenets. Technology has been the largest driver of change in the equity markets over the past two decades, as I will detail later. As trading has become highly electronic, technology has delivered a variety of efficiencies and

  • Regulation of NMS Stock Alternative Trading Systems
    Response to SEC Questions Regarding ‘Regulation of NMS Stock Alternative Trading Systems’ File Number S7-23-15 The SEC, along with most of the industry and academia agree that Alternative Trading Systems (“ATSs”) must become more transparent and provide clear disclosure for the benefit of investors.1 The same data produced by exchanges should also be provided by ATSs, including transactional short sale data. Increased transparency into the structure and operations of ATSs would allow regulators to be more efficient, advisors to make more informed decisions on behalf of clients and investors to measure the benefits and disadvantages of each trading venue. We support the SEC’s proposal to significantly increase ATS disclosure requirements in light of the current market structure that has drastically changed since Regulation ATS was adopted in 1998. There are many potential conflicts of interest for dark pools that constitute the majority of ATS trading arising from their relationships with their affiliates (broker-dealers, clearing firms, other trading venues, etc.). In order to protect investors and the integrity of the U.S. markets, these conflicts of interest should be clearly disclosed. However, it is important not to become buried by the technicalities of disclosure, but holistically consider the risks that could be ultimately posed to the financial system structure. The below issues raise questions regarding the value and relevance of ATSs to investors and the markets and whether they should still continue operations. ATSs are a significant portion of volume in the marketplace. At times, up to 20% of trade volume is executed through ATSs in important U.S.

  • High Frequency Trading 101: Regulatory Impact in American and European Markets
    HIGH FREQUENCY TRADING 101: REGULATORY IMPACT IN AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN MARKETS by Yasmine Elisabeth Allen A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College. Oxford, MS May 2016 Approved by ___________________________________ Advisor: Doctor Bonnie Van Ness ___________________________________ Reader: Doctor Robert Van Ness ___________________________________ Reader: Doctor Alice Cooper © 2016 Yasmine Elisabeth Allen ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would first like to acknowledge my thesis advisor Dr. Bonnie Van Ness through her countless of hours and guidance helping me I managed to finish writing this thesis. I would also like to thank Brock Howell for his constant encouragement that I could finish this thesis even when I wanted to quit. As well as reading over it over and over again to make sure that he understood what I was trying to convey. iii Abstract YASMINE ELISABETH ALLEN: HIGH FREQUENCY TRADING 101: REGULATORY IMPACT IN AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN FINANCIAL MARKETS (under the direction of Bonnie Van Ness) High frequency trading has impacted the American and European financial markets through its advanced algorithms, rapid speed, and preferential treatment from purchasing information and co-location from exchanges. High frequency trading alone is not harmful, but without proper regulations it can hurt the financial markets. In this thesis, I researched implemented regulations, the consequences of those regulations, and pending new regulations. To gather information, I studied relevant research on the topic, including numerous academic articles and books to get a broader view of the issues. Through my research, I have found that previous regulations implemented by American and European regulatory agencies have benefitted high frequency trading firms, and that exchanges, through selling information via co-location, have created an environment that benefits high frequency traders.
