I recently started working for AWS as a SDE2 making $300k TC but I also just created my own crypto arbitrage bot that's raking in around $10k a day (although it fluctuates a lot). I have already made $150k gross in 2 weeks from my bot (after $2,000 initial investment and $800/month in operating expenses). I am concerned that my bot won't remain this profitable for very long but I am seeking advice or what other people would do in this situation. And by "recently started at Amazon", I have only been there a little over a month. I am also single and don't live in Seattle yet so my cost of living is dirt cheap. Please read the following article before asking what arbitrage is: https://www.coindesk.com/learn/crypto-arbitrage-trading-how-to-make-low-risk-gains/ Also, please don’t ask me if you can “subscribe” to my bot. The answer is NO! #tech #crypto
And why can't you do both?
Why is this even a question? Quit Amazon any day is the only answer.
With or without the crypto bot.
Don’t quit unless your bot does well post-bull run
someone posted on reddit that he was making $10k in profit day trading every single day.. and wondering what he was missing. The highest rated reply was this: "In a Tornado, even pigs fly" Within 6 weeks.. the whole market crashed.. this was in 2017. I never forgot that post.. this post is pretty eerie to me because it is soo similar to that one.
Do both until amazon fires you
get that sweet severance
Seriously, just, like, don't try that hard
In the traditional finance world, signals like the one you’ve found (if genuinely a signal and not just luck, which no offense it probably is) will fade over time. Perhaps the trade volume in crypto is low enough to keep a signal afloat for much longer but regardless I think you should stay at Amazon. Great job though, I’ve been working on my own casually here and there as well
Can you explain what you mean about a “signal”?
Tracking
Take a leave of absence and then do your thing... And decide in the meanwhile
Sure you should quit and squiz even more from your bot while it’s doing great. In a few weeks you will make more than in years at Amazon.
And give me that bot, my co might be during me anytime
I don't believe you, but it's also not unheard that you can get rich day trading crypto, if it doesn't require attention keep your job because you still need health insurance
How’d ya make your bot?
Ask me in a year when it’s not profitable anymore and maybe I’ll tell you ;)
Sharing info has little if any loss to you. Doubt you’re moving that level of money back and forth to really influence the market
