Love this channel!

I need an internship. Help!

Drink the water we need it in Africa

Guy is placed in the video so his face is near perfectly located according to Fibonacci. Becoming a quant trader is fun and exciting, good luck everyone!

I disagree.

Airplanes try to provide a service in the PRESENT
Quant is trying to predict the future.

So what kind of advantage would someone have that doesn't use this strategy? More knowledge in the kinds of businesses or the kind of markets they are investing in for example? I don't quite get how you would do any analysis without data science

Why did you not even take a sip of that water for the entire 9min?

Theres no such thing as quant trading Mr.Boyle its called gambling , or you can call it quantitaive gambling pheraphs Lol

I predict that the next time there is a run on toilet paper that the stock market is going to go down.

Bro got more ice than water

Hi
I am wondering with where to start if I want to learn quant trading?
do you have recommended books?

GPS satellites use time.

Is there such a thing as a retail quant trader? do those people exist? another question is can someone become a quant trader without having no education and by just reading and studying finance and math on their own?

💸💸💸

Does Quant trading generate a lot of taxes, since it's short term investing?

Could you have some more videos on this subject. Above video is very informative but also very brief. Few more episodes in detail will help.

Hi Patrick, I love this video and I want to be a Quant Trader.
Right now I'm a Data Analyst in a Bank, If I study statistics, python, machine learning and finance can I be a Quant Trader?

I love the decorative cotton inside his water glass and the way he holds his cigarette like he will rush out to smoke as soon as the video is done.

Do you recommend any services that provide quant statistics?

Bruh the ice in that glass

Could you do a video where you analyze ai crypto trading bots?

I just bought your book, hope it helps me.

Every quant trader
'we don't rely on intuition instead we rely on quantitative analysis'

Reality
Intuition is your subconscious mind doing quantitative analysis and presenting you best possible answer without you doing the work.

thanks to this video, i realized i have been quant trading for over a year without even knowing it xD

thanks for confirming i'm not insane with my convoluted strategies lol

ice ice baby

i cant stop staring at all the ice in his glass

The amount of ice in that glass could fool us into thinking you're American. :P

Iceberg on the left

he probably got a silenced pistol in the drawer

Impressive how many ice is in this glass

👍

Could you do a video on how AI and machine learning specifically is being used for trading?

Do you want some water with that ice

What is the game plan legend, id love to hear that 🎱

hello, Mr Boyle! In another video, you recommended the book "A Random Walk Down Wall Street" by Burton Malkiel. In that book, Mr Malkiel suggests that the market has essentially priced in all publicly available information in any given stock's price at any given moment in time. If we presume that to be true, upon what basis would a typical retail investor be able to make any intelligent decisions about what stocks to invest in beyond pure instinct?

In other words, are there variables in a stock's price that might not be subject to the axiom above that might make is possible for retail investors to make a reliable profit on? Or is any potential profit purely speculative? And related to that, do retail investors really have any reasonable chance to actively trade in a way when at significant structural disadvantages to institutional investors, such as information deficits, access to incredibly high speed trading platforms, physical proximity to exchanges, etc, etc?

That iceberg in the glass of water sunk the titanic

I still have no idea how analyzing "data" and building a "model" amounts to returns that are supposedly superior to technical analysis which can also be programmed to trade systematically while reading the market and testing its success in the interim.

Dude. That glass is 60% ice. It bothered me the whole video

Where can I contact you sir

Hi, what software do you test your strategies on if you don't mind sharing? I assume your using some form of python or equivalent?

Excellent content

Why would a quant trader be doing forwards? That is not an investment strategy.

Hiya, Patrick. First of all great content 👍🏻👏🏻. I’m a part qualified actuary with a fairly robust grounding in statistics and modelling. Please help me gain an understanding of how much I already know which is used in quantitative finance as I am toying with the idea of getting into it. Would you be kind enough to merely name a few statistical techniques used for hypothesis testing in quantitative finance? I’ll know how much I know. Thank you, Patrick.

We should change "If you don't understand it, then stay away" to "If you don't understand, then educate yourself."

I have subscribed and I find your talks insightful and compelling. No dissing .Just a straight question that irritates me. Economics and Finance can never be a science. There are too many irrational human variables and we cannot conduct triple blinded randomized gold standard trials. It’s also the case that economic and financial equilibriums do not exist because they are models that rely on ceteris paribus. Further many models rely on linearity when in fact the markets are exponential. So , in natural science such as physics, mathematics we have a hypothesis that can be tested and used as a prediction based on equilibrium. Something equals something else. Cause= Effect. In that case why oh why do we try and use mathematics to try to figure out inequalities where there will always be no predictive value and no science ? Yes it may be a random walk and yes we have Brownian motion which is an aberration of the heat on molecules equation but application of a pure physical experiment of three variables onto a sector that has trillions of variables appears like financial engineers are just trying to put silk wrapping paper around a pigs ear. Markets can never be predictable for that reason.

Water with ice this guy fucks

I think most peoples' problem with quant trading is not that it's bad, Patrick, but rather that it's too good. Computer algorithms extracting money from the market like, well, a machine, robbing normal investors that don't have access to these technologies every minute of every day.

Great video ! PS: I like the sharp look !
