Group 2: Impact on Trading Strategies - Many private equity firms have already begun modifying their trading algorithms in response to the new regulations, with one firm reducing its order submission rate from 400 to 30 per second, resulting in a potential annualized return loss of 0.8% for each frequency reduction [3][4]. - The new rules have led to a general increase in costs for day trading strategies among small and medium-sized quantitative private equity firms, with costs rising by approximately 30% [15]. - Some firms are developing new strategies that incorporate macroeconomic factors, such as low-frequency CTA strategies, which have shown a potential 40% reduction in annualized volatility during backtesting [16].
