When I look at high frequency trading, it says to me that the game is rigged. It's like going on Jeopardy up against a machine contestant that always buzzes in first.

How many other ways is the ostensibly neutral marketplace overseer profiting by offering those who pay-to-play opportunities to shave pennies, nickels, dimes, and dollars from me?
