    Ask Me Anything, With John Floyd.

He also sees slowing economic growth, tensions between Northern and Southern Europe, and rising delta variant …

    If you can pick the mind of 1 or 2 people from the Exchange (about anything), who would it be? Use names & “@“ tag. Also feel free to write what / why (i.e. @Moritz Heiden - want to know how quants look at markets- tickers? Charts? Lines of code? @Matt Daniell to learn how to develop a bulletproof daily process and stay disciplined to it.)

Originally recorded Sun 4/18 (few hours after BTC mini crash). https://vimeo.com/543960066Also- thank you all for the birthday wishes!

    Position Sizing as Edge
    What I have found through my experience is that edge is quantifiable and the best investors and traders in the world understand their edge.

The Van Tharp concept of R-multiples will change your trading and level you up.

    For those Interested in understanding the history of custody and "what is a euro bond/ dollar", I...

The introduction, in 1963, of the Interest Equalisation Tax in the…
