Never seen this video, I think is quite interesting introduction to algo trading and algorithms on financial markets. There were 2000 physicists on Wall Street, I wonder how many are now building bots for crypto space:)
Here is more extensive blog post on that topic https://empirica.io/blog/algorithmic-trading-a-complete-guide/

Let's talk governance, lipstick, and pigs.
Awesome video.  The concept of an entire skyscraper being hollowed out to fill with servers / computational equipment, because a 13ms connection is too slow, is just amazing.  We're getting into a real Aeon Flux future.

I wonder why they choose to make a living this way. Do they believe that America will not change they way financial sectors operate? If so, then that 13 ms beast will again rear it's head as diminishing returns once again. I don't know about Aeon Flux, but I do also believe that algorithmic trading creates havoc with legitimate real world needs and resources. Then again, maybe a simple tax code restructuring can also end this practice.

Shame on everything; regret nothing.

There have been various threads on this and similar topics. I'm amazed this has been met with such indifference.
