Each week, the NYSE says that program trading averages more than 40% of all of the trading done on the stock market.  That is more than one share out of every three shares of stock, that is done by computer assisted trading programs.  So, if you are day trading and online trading stocks or futures, it is probably a good idea for you to start learning a lot more about program trading, index arbitrage, fair value, the premium, and the execution of buy and sell programs.  And it is also a good idea for you to learn just exactly who is doing all of this index arbitrage and program trading on the NYSE and NASDAQ stock market, at exactly what time they are doing it, and with which stocks.

In order to help you learn more, we've listed some of the top program trading and index arbitrage firms and Russell Market Makers below.  We've also included their four letter market maker symbol for NASDAQ, just in case you are online trading stocks on NASDAQ Level II and want to know which Russell market makers you should be watching very closely.  Especially when you see the PREM move a lot.  We pay special attention to the Russell Market Makers in red.  If you would like to know why, then send us some email and we will answer you promptly.
