Hello! I am a 31 year old ex-business owner who does a large volume of retail algorithmic equity trading based on end-of-day data. I love extracting profits from the market. I realize that I am "green" from a corporate perspective. I want to start a new career where I can pursue profit extraction on a real high frequency level compared to what I currently do personally. I understand that I may not be suited for starting at a quant researcher or trader role, and that is fine. I would love any position at a trading related firm; internships and apprenticeships absolutely are welcome. I love talking to people. I enjoy coding, but I feel like my 10 years distance from school and unrelated background will make interviews tough for me given the mental math and code questions that are asked. Is this a huge hurdle, or is there room for someone like me to get started in quant/trading/FinTech? If you've read all of this, thank you kindly! I appreciate it. Thank you! https://www.rooftopslushie.com/request/Ex-business%20owner%20looking%20for%20quant%20trading%20or%20FinTech%20related%20firm-12755 #tech #trading #citadel #drw #optiver #janestreet #twosigma #hudsonrivertrading #point72
