The picture below shows that UK, USA, Japan, Australia and then many others are the trading nations so far as volume of trade (not to unexpected).
But it then goes on to say that algorithmic trading has risen from 2% of trading volume to 45% of trading volume in as little as 3 years.
How could this be verified?
What is the power that is involved in many high speed tiny trades?
Any ideas?
(Cause to me larger trades can normally be partially closed which seems to negate the need or power of high speed tiny trades, in my mind)
Thanks
