    Oh dear: death to HFT

    "A "speed bum" plan for orders on the New York Stock Exchange
    NYSE has said NYSE American will have a similar model as IEX Group's Investors' Exchange

    Including a 350-microsecond delay
    Except it will have electronic market makers with obligations to ease the trading of NYSE American-listed stocks
    U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved NYSE's speed bump in a regulatory filing on Tuesday, making it the second U.S. exchange with an artificial delay."

    NYSE plans to add a delay of a fraction of a second for incoming and outgoing orders

    Where is Churchill when you need him?

    Good. It will make a more level playing field.

      There are of the order of around 20 stock exchanges in the US, and many more "dark pools". All this plan for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) will do is to move high frequency trading onto the other exchanges, and result in slightly worse prices for those still using the NYSE.

        Delay will be a regulatory requirement, I am surprised it's only 350 microseconds, but I guess it's a start.

          Would you like 350 days?
