Navinder Singh Sarao, the trader accused of contributing to the 2010 flash crash, will be let out on bail today after the US authorities dropped their opposition to his release.
The former bank worker and Brunel University student has had his assets frozen and has remained in custody since his arrest because the £5 million security has not been paid. He then cancelled those trades and bought the contracts at the lower prices, reaping a roughly $40 million profit on his trading, U.S. authorities said.
Sarao is accused of using an automated programme to “spoof” markets by generating large sell orders that pushed down prices.

The DoJ claims that Mr Sarao and his firm, Nav Sarao Futures, made £26m ($40m) illegally over five years.
He still faces extradition to the United States on charges carrying a maximum sentence of 380 years.
The other bail conditions are that he must stay at his parents’ address in Hounslow, west London, each night, and can not travel internationally or use the internet.
Sarao has denied wrongdoing, telling the court in May: “I’ve not done anything wrong apart from being good at my job”.
A full extradition hearing is set to being on 24 September.
