Why it’s the end of an era for the financial markets
As a supplimentary article on this subject, we suggest reading “Why it’s the end of an era for the financial markets”. The author, Enrique Dans, pointed out that traders now require a completely different set of skills, among which is knowing how to write code is essential.

We hope that the articles we mentioned were useful and will have a beneficial influence on the development of your business. Stay tuned and see you next week!
