Pretty cool detective story about using an SDR HF radio to improve stock market trading times.

Not for me. I can't accept any SDR latency and do all my trading via single-conversion radios without the extra delays from multiple IF's and heterodyne mixing.1

Very interesting, and illegal.0

Ok, the 2nd article discussed an experimental license and power levels of 20KW to 50KW ( because if HF is unreliable at amateur power levels it is very reliable at 20KW to 50 kilowatt levels). And I assume they are using ALE to find the best frequency.0

The interest by traders to "shave-time" to gain advantage is very old.
While the article I am linking to applies value statements claiming what was happening was "a crime" the 1830's courts of France exonerated the defendants, basically because they found a way to shave trading time in a way too novel for legal protection.
