[K3CAL] HF Radio Stock trading; Coming to a frequency near you!

[Shawn Donley]

FYI 
Coming to a HF frequency soon near you soon, maybe on top of your frequency if they goon up the modulation.
 
It has been tested that stock trading over HF radio is 9 milliseconds FASTER that sending the transmission via undersea cable/fiber  in conducting trading from the USA to Europe
 
You may see some of this on your waterfall displays as the wide band signals butt right up to the edge of the amateur bands.  One emitters data says 14.000-14.990MHz which I hope is an error.

High-speed trading, formally known as
High-Frequency Trading (HFT), is a form of algorithmic trading that uses powerful computer programs to execute a vast number of orders at extremely high speeds, often within microseconds or milliseconds
 
How High-Frequency Trading Works
 
HFT firms leverage advanced technology to gain a speed advantage in financial markets. Key components include: 
 
          o Algorithms: Complex, pre-programmed instructions that analyze market data, identify trends, and make trading decisions instantaneously.
          o Speed: HFT systems prioritize ultra-low latency, with the goal of executing trades faster than competitors. This can involve using specialized hardware and high-speed connections like microwave transmission networks
            .
    * Co-location: HFT firms pay exchanges to place their computer servers in the same data centers as the exchange's own trading systems. This physical proximity minimizes the time it takes for an order to travel, an advantage measured in microseconds.
    * High Volume, Small Profits: The strategy involves making tiny profits on each individual trade, but accumulating substantial overall gains through the sheer volume and speed of transactions.
