You do realize that unless its only for their account, these algorithms are only trying to execute trades, not make the decision on WHETHER to buy or sell, right?</p><p><br /></p><p>I just don&#039;t buy it. I have studied these algorithms, know what computer trading is all about. I would buy your assertion a lot more in the equity arena since there is MUCH more house trading done there. </p><p><br /></p><p>I simply do not understand how you feel fundamental demand is still not paramount to pricing. Algorithm trading is meaningless if your fundamentals are deteriorating. To illustrate, algorithm trading I am sure was pointing out, (or trying to execute), trades in Enron stock all of the way down. The computer cannot know global movements, its good at quickly trading on tiny nuances. Knowledgable firms know when to turn off computer trading and when to have it turned on.</p><p><br /></p><p>Therefor, I completely disagree with your hypothesis that something alluding to large, market changing demand changes is &quot;irrelevant&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
