Dear HFT Quant,

> And yes, the algos do care about your little 1 lot order.

I'm just your usual "corrupted nerd" geek with some mathematics and computer security background interests - 2 questions if I may 1. what's like the most interesting paper you have read recently or unrelated thing you are interested in at the moment? 2. " And yes, the algos do care about your little 1 lot order." How would one see this effect you mentioned - like it seems wildly anomalous, how would go about finding this effect assuming maximum mental venturesomeness, a tiny $100 and too much time?
