Legit, retail track record, then what
Hi guys
So I saw this interview with Anton Kreil (ex goldman trader now having a company to coach traders) and he said that from time to time one or two traders under his coaching get to a point, where they have a profitable track record of 12-18 months, and as a result they get interviewed (by Anton showing their track record to them) by hedge funds which align with their strategy.
These are obviously retail accounts at an online brokerage, and I just don't seem to get how somebody "no-name" (maybe even without a degree?), who just has like a year old account (and let's assume his/her performance is solid, legit, so risk management and everything else checks) could have a chance at landing a job in a HF? From my reading on several forums its just not possible, these guys may have a chance at a trading arcade at most.
Thanks for your insights
I'm trying to find more info on this, it's actually a pretty cool idea.
A hedge fund doesn't have to be a multi-billion, multi-manager shop. Regardless, if a retail trader is capable of running a scalable strategy, then it should be within the realm of possibility.
