Pedro Augusto Auache Pereira writes about the machinery beneath modern markets: how orders become executions, how algorithms interact with liquidity, and how trading infrastructure is engineered for precision, risk discipline, and regulatory compliance.
His work focuses on market microstructure, algorithmic and systematic trading, execution systems, and derivatives market infrastructure, with particular attention to U.S. regulated futures markets and CME Group venues.
Background
Pedro is the founder and systems architect of GIDEON Systems LLC (Delaware), an institutional derivatives trading middleware platform — 73,000+ lines of production code, with an execution stack certified by CME Group on iLink (order entry) and MDP (market data), operating on live CME Group infrastructure.
He has operated as a quantitative trader for four years, experience that shaped GIDEON's core design thesis: execution discipline, enforced in code, is the edge. His professional background also includes work as an accountant at a fintech regulated by the Central Bank of Brazil (BCB), where regulatory reporting and auditability were daily practice — a discipline carried directly into GIDEON's compliance-by-design architecture.
He holds a specialization degree in Financial Management from Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), one of Latin America's leading business schools, academically evaluated as equivalent to a U.S. master's degree (AAE credential evaluation).
Writing
The GIDEON Insights series covers the practical foundations of institutional trading: limit order books, price formation, the economics of the bid-ask spread, execution algorithms, backtesting pitfalls, pre-trade risk controls, latency, and the regulatory architecture of U.S. derivatives markets. Every article is grounded in the academic literature of market microstructure — Kyle (1985), Glosten and Milgrom (1985), Almgren and Chriss (2001), O'Hara (1995), Harris (2003) — and written for practitioners.
