RE: What Makes Trading Unique as a Profession? [SPOILER ALERT IT AINT THE MONEY]

in #trading • 6 years ago

Great write up! Pretty much sums it up about trading as a profession. The freedom does sometimes come at a hefty price for those who are not fully emotionally disassociated from their trading portfolios.

Do you trade forex/equities as well? And are you more of an algorithm trader or do you trade manually?

    before i traded crypto I ran an institutional trading desk that made markets in global fixed income futures, nowadays my time is 100% crypto however

    algo's all the way... i started trading manually back in the day... i was not comp sci or anything i just learned to program from the internet in response to the fact that I couldn't get a fill manually anymore, that was 2008 i think...

    Great to see established talent from the financial industry on here.

    Yeah, almost all trading is now done through algorithms, so being a system(s) trader is key nowadays.
