Algorithmic Trading Systems
Algorithmic trading, also known as automated trading or black-box trading, is a method of executing trades using computer run pre-programmed instructions, called algorithms. These algorithms analyze market data, identify trading opportunities, and execute trades at high speeds.
Algorithmic trading has transformed the financial industry, enabling faster, more efficient, and data-driven trading decisions.
