Media Advisory: Systematic, High Frequency Financial Trading and the Data Quandary
Webinar to feature prominent Industry Analyst Larry Tabb and Vertica customer BlueCrest Capital Management
BILLERICA, Mass., March 1 -- WHO:
-- Larry Tabb, Founder and CEO, TABB Group
-- Mark Holt, Head of Systematic Implementation, BlueCrest Capital
Management
-- David Menninger, VP of Product Management and Marketing, Vertica
WHAT:
While the systematic trading of financial products strategies started in the U.S. equity market, it has spread to U.S. futures and options, foreign exchanges, overseas markets and now threatens to become the primary method for trading virtually all products. While all of these products and markets are unique, they all require the ingestion, analysis and processing of massive quantities of real-time data. The amount of data that needs to be analyzed is incomprehensible. On an average day the peak amount of U.S. market information for exchange-traded products that needs to be analyzed exceeds 1.5 million messages per second up from a peak of less than five thousand messages a second only a decade ago.
DETAILS:
-- Larry Tabb, Founder and CEO of TABB Group will discuss the
opportunities and challenges of aggregating, analyzing and trading off
of an increasingly gargantuan amount of data that needs to be analyzed
by the microsecond.
-- Mark Holt, Head of Systematic Implementation at BlueCrest Capital
Management will describe some of BlueCrest's systematic trading
applications and how BlueCrest approaches the challenges associated
with the volume and frequency of data involved.
WHEN: Tuesday, March 2, 2010 from 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. ET
