Abstract

High frequency trading (HFT) activity has increased over recent years. In a  recent paper , Rene Carmona and Kevin Webster claimed that about 70 per cent of all the transactions in the US equity market were carried out using this tool in 2010, although it is now thought that the percentage in recent years has declined somewhat to around 50-60 per cent. Nevertheless, given the importance of the phenomenon, the attention of regulators has heightened also in light of the potential negative impact that such trading might have on financial markets.
