Half the desk is algorithms now, firing off trades in a blink while I read a chart. I built my gut over twenty years and it feels slow and old next to that. Some days I resent the machines, and some days I just feel dumb for not understanding them.
More people experience this than they realize.
As algorithms take over trading, you swing between resenting them and not understanding them.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
