It's the biggest market in the world and is traded 24 hours a day, 6 days a week, and therefore one that is impossible to ignore. I'm speaking, of course, about the forex market.
The question is, is this the tail that's wagging the dog? Meaning, is the forex market, mainly the euro, dictating the trend in American and European equity markets.
Today's guest, Michele (Mish) Schneider has gotten such a phenomenal response from Trader's Blog readers in the past, that we've decided to bring her back and share her take on High Frequency Trading, or HFT, plays.

Not too long ago, the buzz around the street was all about High Frequency Trading Models and the possible legislation that would be enforced to try and quell them. What is High Frequency Trading (HFT)? According to an interview with Sal Arnuk Partner of Themis Trading LLC printed June 14th, 2010 in the High Frequency Trading Review—yes, there is such a publication—“I guess you can call HFT any strategy that involves high speed execution of thousands of orders per second, or in a short time period.

This occurs when markets reach certain retracement levels and often reverse direction from their previous trend.
In this new short video I outline this phenomenon on the S&P500 and will also be covering it when our new educational trading video debuts this Friday, which will be of course, "Fibonacci Friday".

The gold market jumped early on in trading today (6/17) based on economic data that came out indicating that the future wasn't quite as rosy as everyone first thought.
