This paper seeks to empirically determine whether feedback trading strategies result in stabilization or destabilization in the foreign exchange market and if such strategies are a distinctive characteristic of an emerging economy or they are a common element to both developed and emerging economies. These hypotheses are tested via the use of a feedback model augmented with a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) process for modeling the errors. The results suggest presence of both positive and negative feedback trading and asymmetric behavior in both types of economies. Irrespective of the nature of feedback trading, presence of asymmetric behavior implies that market traders rely on central banks to intervene so they can realize short-term profits. Finally,...

Electronic trading has revolutionized markets. In the equities markets, algorithmic trading platforms, high-frequency trading and smart order routing are just some of the technologies transforming the way stocks are traded.

Amid the global market turmoil, FX has proven itself as a separate asset class that can generate alpha and continue to function smoothly when other markets are disrupted. Growing revenues from FX trading have helped some banks to weather the difficult financial and economic environment. One reason that foreign exchange trading volumes have continued to expand amid this year's financial turmoil is the presence of continuous-linked settlement, which takes settlement risk out of the market, traders say.

In the old days, say 10-15 years ago, the foreign exchange market was the playground of big banks and multinational corporations. Soon the curtain cracked; firms were consolidating smaller orders to play in the trillion dollar market. And then, with the growth of electronic trading, the curtain opened wide. Foreign exchange no longer was some dark place where small traders feared to tread, in fact, a new "industry" was born to service their demand. But the growth of the retail forex sector has attracted its share of sleazy profiteers that the US regulators want to stop. In an effort to expel these, the National Futures Association and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) have implemented tough new capitalization requirements for online forex dealers in the wake of the CFTC's May ...
