Latency measures the length of time to execute a trade from order entry to execution. The speaker is referring to the ability of market participants to gain advantages in speed of trade execution through advanced technology, specifically the “co-location” of their computer servers near stock exchanges. Lower latency is generally driven in proportion to the nearness of the servers to the exchanges.

NASDAQ market makers were accused in the late 1980s of abusing their privileges by not providing liquidity and two-sided continuous quotes at the time of the 1987 market crash. That led to the introduction of the Small Order Execution System (SOES). More significantly, these same market makers were also accused of colluding to keep bid ask spreads on stock prices artificially wide, a practice characterized by only quoting stocks in even one eight increments (i.e., 0, 2/8, 4/8, 6/8).

Schack said in a follow-up interview that investors would be willing to quote Citi in increments of less than a penny if the minimum increment was lowered from a penny.

Small Order Execution System introduced in response to the 1987 Crash. Market makers attracted criticism for not “picking up their phones” to take customer orders.

The “fat finger” refers to human mechanical error in entering a trade via key strokes. The error in this instance could be 75,000 rather than 75. The “fat finger” would have clumsily typed in three unintended zeroes.

In 2010, Jerome Kerviel was found guilty of a €4.9bn trading loss at Societe Generale.

This refers to the trading pause mechanism in the Liquidity Replenishment Points (LRPs) program operated by the New York Stock Exchange.

In its report on the Flash Crash, the CFTC and SEC report noted a skittish market environment prior to the Crash because of concern about European sovereign debt. However, the report cited a single sell order of 75,000 S&P E-mini contracts traded at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange as the catalyst for the Crash. Media reports cited the mutual fund Waddell & Reed in Kansas as the source of that sell order, which was valued at approximately $4.1 billion.
