29 High Frequency Trading 16-29 High Frequency Trading has become popular over the last several years and has dramatically changed the landscape of the securities markets. High frequency trading is made possible by proprietary algorithms created to allow computers to automatically trade stocks and securities in a matter of seconds. Since the advent of this method, there have been severe crashes in the market due to failure of the technology or mistakes made by the computers. These mistakes are usually corrected just as quickly as they occur, however, it does make some wonder if replacing a human trader with an automated one is worth the risk.
