What's HFT, for example? Front running is criminal, HFT is
apparently not. Not much of a difference, except technically
HFT is front running trades based on "available market
information"

It's only "available market info" to those who use
HFT, so it's criminal. -ng-

But again all the points are well stated. With
no confidence in the trust worthiness of the
market there is no market...-vng-

"There were quite a few strange cases of futures rogue traders
around during the market melts of 2007-2008. PPT operations
that failed due to lack of liquidity? We'll never know."

Any links or firsthand knowledge?
