I know it was a good week since we discussed the algorythms and possible dangers of it. I had some read on the recent Associated Press twitter account hack that caused a short term downfall on the US markets.. They mentionned : automatic computer trades (algorythms) are automatically scanning the news for positive or negative words in accordance with other terms to make trading decisions. In this case : bomb, combined with white house, obama and injured was enough to trigger several sells at the same time. It was no human intervention, all automatic. One wonders what might happen next time if words would be ''nuclear attack on the west coast, 5M deaths'' or anything likely.... yikes . Get those algorythms trading systems on a leach or something
