Description
'The greatest story of our age ... Be very afraid' John Arlidge, Sunday Times Michael Lewis's epic bestseller tells the outrageous story of the multi-millionaires and whizz kids who scammed the banking system in the blink of an eye - and the whistleblowers who tried to stop them. It's hilarious, terrifying and it's all true. 'Thrilling, a masterclass' Robert McCrum, Observer, Books of the Year 'Jaw-dropping, astonishing ... Lewis has lit the touch paper' Liam Halligan, Spectator 'The kind of writer who creates his own weather system' John Lanchester, London Review of Books 'I read Michael Lewis for the same reasons I watch Tiger Woods. I'll never play like that. But it's good to be reminded every now and again what genius looks like' Malcolm Gladwell

Great Book
The book is very well written and is a great read for those who want to know more about High Frequency Trading. The book does not require one to know anything about the topic as it is so well written. Credits to Michael Lewis for such a well written and interesting book!
I am also impressed with the quality of this book for the price I paid. The book costed Rs 347 and it is a large font sized-Hardcover book, something pretty rare for a book at this price!

Stunning!!!
I have been very curious to know about HFT since the time I started investing in stock market. I read many articles about HFT on internet but nothing is more gripping and detail than Flash Boys. I could grasp even subtle issues of HFT, otherwise difficult to comprehend.
I loved the way it is narrated with simple examples which spoon fed the entire concept of HFT. Verbatim used to portray the emotional situations were very apt to the content.
I thank Michel Lewis for coming up with such gem ...

High Frequency Trading!
Can you make money by simply being faster than other market participants in the stock market? Mike Lewis thinks you most definitely can. So, he feels compelled to tell the story of Investors exchange (or IEX) which is an honest police warden of the financial world and who does not allow anyone to jump the queue in the bid-ask race.
If you were to believe Lewis, Russian computer wizards are powering an insidious revolution in the stock markets. These people are using loopholes in the current r...
