[6] MarketsWiki Education Video, October 2015[edit]Mark Spanbroek, European Principal Traders Association – Financial Markets 2.0 "What trading is really about is finding an algorithmic, or systematic way, to analyze the market. And this is done with data." Mark Spanbroek's trading career spanned the transition from the old world of trading pits to the new world of algorithms. He now serves as acting chairman of the FIA European Principal Traders Association (EPTA). In this MarketsWiki Education presentation, Spanbroek showcases both worlds - Financial Markets 1.0 and 2.0 - from the pit trader in the multi-colored trading jacket to today's trader, which he says is not a trader, but rather an engineer, and today's trading strategy is more of a team effort than an individual effort.
