High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2011 Sao Paulo, preeminent High Frequency Trading conferences Organized by Golden Networking in New York, Chicago, Hong Kong and London
New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/28/2011 -- Golden Networking’s High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2011 Sao Paulo (http://www.HFTLeadersForum.com), conference that will provide the most up-to-date overview of cutting-edge developments and insights to build a competitive advantage in high-frequency trading to investors and traders.
High frequency trading is building momentum in Brazil with the recent launch of a high frequency trading platform for derivatives called Puma at Brazilian exchange BM&F Bovespa . According to a report from Bloomberg’s Eleni Himaras and Lynn Thomasson, BM&F Bovespa CEO Edemir Pinto, daily volume peaked at about 700,000 contracts since the new system began, compared with a previous high of 110,000, he said. The platform reduced the time it took to process a trade from more than 10 milliseconds to less than one, according to Maziero.
Pinto estimates that high-frequency trading may eventually make up 20 percent to 30 percent of Brazil’s market volume from the current 8 percent. Puma, which was designed with CME Group Inc., will begin for equities by the end of March and for fixed- income products by the middle of next year, he said.
