Thinking about applying for a vol trading role at this firm. Anyone heard of it?
They're based out of Chicago and trade volatility.

The guy blew a couple funds and just says big words on twitter and on TV, complete LARP with shit returns
Have definitely heard of the firm, super knowledgeable on option trading markets and great team.
Did you make a WSO account specifically to post this? lmao
kek... nope! :)
Quants on Twitter are not the brightest. Very stupid to apply to a firm just because their spokeperson is active on Twitter.
The money making quant firms are pretty much under the radar and have zero need to do marketing in social media to garner interest from LPs.
Do better.
By vol trading, does this mean they trade VIX/options, or does this mean they trade stocks and try to capture swings in their price? I’ve seen this term a lot but never was exactly sure what “vol trading” meant specifically.
Vol trading means you take exposure in volatility products, e.g. options, vix products or other derivatives
Know a quant who was swindled into working there. Avoid.
Cem is a big f**king idiot
What products/strategy did your friend trade?
the person that runs it is a charlatan and a fraud
i would neither work there nor invest with that fool
