Message: <blockquote data-quote="eager_to_learn" data-source="post: 101532" data-attributes="member: 19135">Hi All,I have been reading a lot of posts on quantnet, but this is my 1st post on this site. Whoever started this site, I would like to say thank you to him or her.I have 2 questions about this article -1. Since the article quoted in the 1st post here mentions Fixed Income Trading, I wanted to check if skills required for equity trading were also changing, and if equity traders are also required to have programming skills now (or going into the future).2. THe article also mentions that regulations are causing fixed income securities to be traded thru online platforms. Again, are there any regulations (and if so, which ones ?) that require that equity derivatives also be traded thru online platforms ? PS: I know that stocks are electronically traded, but I dont know if ALL equity derivatives are electronically traded as of today.Thanks</blockquote>
