How Buy Side Trading Has Changed

The wake of 2008’s turbulent market conditions has left behind a new trading landscape, one that is different and one that is unique. Buy side traders share their thoughts on how trading has changed for them.

Think back to just one year ago and how different the trading landscape was: Dark pools were all the rage, the euro was still dominating the dollar and hedge funds were on a roll. Blink.

A year later, and how things have changed. 2008 saw historic changes in the financial markets, astronomical volatility, and collapses and consolidation of major institutions that no one would ever have imagined.

No trader can deny that it is a different world on the desk today. Advanced Trading turned to some top buy-side traders to get their insight and personal thoughts on how trading has changed and what they see as key for trading going forward.
