Day traders will have fun until they wiped out

It will definitely happen. Trading is hard and takes a lot of time to learn how to or takes a lot of data in different Escenarios because some models work and stop working depending on market conditions, and they always change eventually

I disagree, take Hertz for example, media heavily focuses the influence from robinhood traders, however, there were big institutions went long after the filing of bankruptcy reorganization

The shorter the time period, the more noise to signal. The more noise to signal, the less reliable any trading method based on the signal is, and the closer to random chance/walk, and more likely to lose. Having said that, love the challenge!

As discussed in an earlier report, the draft of Hong Kong’s security law is unlikely to bring a material impact to the Hang Seng Index, which is heavily weighted toward mainland corporations. In fact, the implementation of a national security may even …

Two years ago, I used Sharpe Ratio to screen HSI composite stocks. Only 388 and 700 were identified as long term picks with reference to 10 years historical data. 11 and 2388 were identified as the other marginal choices. All others were nothing but sh…

USA is like Stage 4 Cancer dying non working patient with a no limit credit card

These numbers from https://www.usdebtclock.org/ are staggering. Then you listen to all these fools on the major media try to spin into some form of optimism is so unrealistic. The unemployment rate vs working is NOT what you are hearing. They don’t mention about how 123M are carrying 200M who are not even working. These same people are not even counted as being unemployed puts the country well into more than 50% not working. I don’t get these idiotic stats. Watch this video to see how dire this really is. There are more than 2x on food stamps than millionaires. This is not sustainable. Other Western democratic countries are not doing much better. Worst not mentioned is artificial intelligence nor robots replaces a lot more jobs/careers.

You would wonder what can you do? Can anyone say cryptocurrency ?

truth about data analyst salaries in hedge funds

If you are top dog from a top university, why is it not hard t o get $500k soon as a data analysis

In theory, data science jobs in hedge funds are some of the best paid in the industry. Urban myth has it that newly qualified PhDs can get $500k+ jobs at top funds soon after graduating and seven figure positions soon after after that. The reality may be rather more modest.

New analytics: Quant research job no longer be finance knowledge

What is the difference between quant vs actuary? Below is a video of this but see the description:

A lot of people have been asking what is the difference between Quants and Actuaries. Some have tried claiming one is nested inside of the other curriculum however this is wrong. In simple terms, quants are very focused in derivatives, financial risk management, and statistical arbitrage with heavy focus on programming as well. They require a minimum of a Masters (1-2 yrs) but prefer a PhD (5-7 yrs). Actuaries specialize in the insurance, pension, and health care industry with a broad range of topics covered including statistics, probability, finance, economics, and financial mathematics. It is very hard to jump from one (quant or actuary) to the other. Actuaries require exams which prevent quants from entering their industry. Quants require a Masters or PhD and prefer specific majors over others which prevents actuaries from entering the quant realm. Yes, there are people who go from one to the other but it is not very common due to the barriers.

Quant is pure math.

Thanks Bryan

Amateur Quants Analyst Suddenly Everywhere in China

Hey Have you seen this questions of what a amateu quant is? One comment of this is quite good found here ?

Amateur Quants are unskilled, unprofessional with no expertise & adequate knowledge. They are rookies. Just like a amateur trader who trades chart patterns, moving averages crosses etc.

This comment among others is found in my Facebook Quant programming group.
