Has anyone read Flash Boys by Michael Lewis?
Could the technique apply to Australia?
He mentions the geographic difference between the ASX and the second
exchange somewhere on the North Shore and the key to transaction speed.
Could the biggies like Comsec, Macquarie or some of the wise guys from
America or Switzerland be running dark pools etc?
Would this explain bids or offers dissapearing into cyberspace as soon
as one's order is placed?
I'm just in a few chapters into the book but I'm curious as to whether these
shenanigans are happening on the ASX and what other's experiences have been.
