New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/30/2011 -- High frequency traders have been called many things—from masters of the universe and market pioneers to exploiters, computer geeks, and even predators. Everyone in the business of investing has an opinion of speed traders, but how many really understand how they operate? The only term that hasn’t been used to describe them is Lady Gagas, well, until now. With the famously outrageous outfits, Lady Gaga is proving to be one of fashion's most daring new icons, and now the subject of a Harvard Business School business case. Similarly, with their cutting-edge techniques and extensive leverage of technology, speed traders might as well be called the Lady Gagas of the finance world; they will be attending Golden Networking’s High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2011 Chicago, "How Speed Traders Leverage Cutting-Edge Strategies in the Post-Flash Crash World" (http://www.HFTLeadersForum.com), October 3-5.
