Algorithmic Trading and DMA: An Introduction To Direct Access Trading Strategies by Barry Johnson

Summary

A good introduction to algorithmic trading. It is a guided tour of the algorithmic trading world. It is packed with information if you have the prerequisite background to understand the lingos used in the book. Lacking either one of the two background knowledges, programming / order routing (the technical side) and firm trading, will make it difficult to understand this book. Only recommending this book to those who are interested in the subject with at least one of the prerequisites.
