<title><![CDATA[Catching up with technology: The impact of regulatory changes on ECNs/MTFs Part 1]]></title>
<link>http://automatedtrader.net/algorithmic-trading-online-518.xhtm</link>
<description><![CDATA[In recent years the landscape of trading venues has been transformed by technological ad­vances. New trading concepts and infrastructures along the securities trading value chain have been established. With RegNMS ("Regulation National Market System") in the US and MiFID ("Markets in Financial Instruments Directive") in the EU coming into effect in 2006 and 2007 respectively, regulators on both sides of the Atlantic respond to these changes. Both new legislations try to catch up with recent years' technological advances and intend to cre­ate a level playing field between the different types of trading venues and a harmonisation in the order execution process. Against this background, the paper illustrates and analyses the regulatory environments and the impact of their upcoming changes on ECNs and MTFs ("Multilateral Trading Facilities") – the European analogue of ECNs – with a specific focus on Europe. Based on the framework of market microstructure theory and the existing market structures, the paper will develop scenarios on how the upcoming regulatory overhauls and recent technological improvements will alter the competitive landscape between Regulated Markets, ECNs / MTFs and order flow internalising entities.

<title><![CDATA[Financial Data Mining with Genetic Programming: a Survey and Look Forward]]></title>
<link>http://automatedtrader.net/algorithmic-trading-online-689.xhtm</link>
<description><![CDATA[ Genetic Programming (GP) is an appealing machine-learning  technique for tackling financial engineering problems: it belongs to the  family of evolutionary algorithms that have proven to be remarkably  successful at handling complex optimization problems, and possesses  the unique feature of producing solutions under a symbolic form that  can be understood and analyzed by humans. Over the last decade,  GP has been applied to generate financial trading strategies, forecast  stocks and options prices, or grasp some insight into the dynamics of  the markets and the behavior of the agents. In this paper, we first  provide a brief survey of the existing studies, then highlight fields of  investigations that, we believe, should lead to enhance the applicability  and efficiency of GP in the financial domain.
