Engineer, re: "Trading Error at Major Firm Blamed For Selloff" entered "B" rather than "M" (only 2 keys away-- govt answer>> redesign keyboard!!!) Then with program trading / Fast Trading systems- + Pre-programed a algorithms at numerous hedge funds / fast trading shops react / respond in a micro-second jumping on the bandwaggon accelerating the "action" + One button trading- with derivates (Leveraged short /long ETFs, Indexes, etc) impacting 5,000 to 10,000 stocks and Trillions of market cap without a single person in charge. What a way to run a railroad (casino)!!
