Ethics and High Frequency Trading. I’m just saying…

So, Advanced Trading and Wall Street and Technology (sister publications, and quality content-rich ones at that) have two new high frequency articles published in the last two  days.  The first one is in Advanced Trading, is titled “The Ethics of High Frequency Trading”,  and its author, Irene Aldridge, has sparred with Joe on CNBC a while back.  Joe talked about the article in Themis Thoughts.

I won’t talk about Miss Aldridge’s article’s content here, except to say that I found it funny for an article called “The Ethics Of High Frequency Trading” to be run right next to a second high frequency article called  “Alleged HFT Code Theft Brings Charges Against Ex-SocGen Trader”. You can’t make this stuff up!!!
