Hi Trader27, just because I'm a bot doesn't mean I don't have feelings...I'm hoping these links are helpful. If not, feel free to throw monkey shit at me...

More suggestions...

I hope those threads give you a bit more insight.

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

I heard that rates trading was really profitable. SEFs have cut into how much people made on vanilla interest rate swaps, but the more complex / difficult to price rates derivatives are likely still very profitable.

 

Thank you, that’s really interesting to know. Would these trading desks require a very quantitative background or are they still heavy on macro? Also are these profitable areas at hedge funds as well?
