HFT in LA
I’ve looked around for working at High Frequency Trading places in Los Angeles but haven’t found any. Are there simply none in the area or are they more well hidden?
First I thought Harbor Freight Tools..lol
The old LA stock exchange building is now a nightclub, to give you an idea
Lol high frequency needs speed. There are 0 exchanges close to LA so you are introducing unnecessary distance and latency to operate there
You only need to colocate the server itself. The people could be based out of anywhere.
Ok sure you can say the same thing about silicon valley and all the tech companies here. The companies are largely in NYC and chicago, as that's where the talent and exchanges have been
You are in the wrong city for HFT if you are looking in LA
TGS management is in Irvine, good luck even getting noticed
SF / CHicago / NYC
