These 'flash boys' get in front of trades, so they may provide liquidity, but it will be at your expense anyway. Their model is basically 'front running' orders.. As someone who has traded and lived off the markets for some decades now, I've seen some pretty funny things on my L2 and other displays when placing large orders. It's why this guy has worked to create a new exchange that actually routes trades through an additional 38 miles of fiber to slow them down and give traders a better chance... Michael Lewis has done some great writing on this with 'Flash Boys'... theatlantic.com
