    Paddy,

    Great job. The HFT and Dark Pool videos are excellent.
    You deserve your own segment on CNBC. If they breadcast these a few times everyone in America would understand what all the fuss is about.

    Einstein's maxim (modified)

    The most incomprehensible thing about the (Financial) world is that it is comprehensible.

    proven again.
