Key trends involve leveraging AI for data-driven channels, strategic collaborations, acquisitions for expansion, and developing advanced solutions to strengthen market positions.

The anticipated growth in the algorithmic trading market is expected to be propelled by the increasing penetration of the internet. As internet usage continues to rise globally, providing people with access to online platforms for information and knowledge about online trading, the algorithmic trading market stands to benefit. Online trading relies heavily on internet connectivity, and the surge in internet penetration is likely to support market growth. For instance, as of the beginning of 2023, an estimated 5.16 billion individuals worldwide, equivalent to 64.4% of the global population, were using the internet, according to DataReportal. In India, there were 692 million active internet users in July 2022, with projections indicating an increase to 900 million users by 2025. This trend underscores the significant role of increasing internet penetration in driving the algorithmic trading market forward.

Government support is anticipated to be a key driver of growth in the algorithmic trading market. Governments worldwide are actively supporting the trading sector to develop innovative solutions that better serve the industry. For example, in December 2022, Chinese authorities prepared to launch the state-controlled 'China Digital Asset Trading Platform' in collaboration with various entities, facilitating the trading of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and other digital assets. Similarly, the UK initiated live testing of crypto blockchain technology in June 2022, focusing on financial market activities such as trading and settlement, as part of its efforts to become a global crypto hub. The UK is actively creating a favorable regulatory environment to attract investments and promote the use of blockchain technology and crypto assets. Consequently, government support is expected to drive advancements in the trading industry, leading to increased demand for the algorithmic trading market.
