I run a trading bootcamp, which teaches the fundamentals of quantitative trading — markets, order books, auctions, risk and sizing, adverse selection, arbitrage, how quant trading firms make money — typically over the course of four days.
The philosophy of this bootcamp is that the best way to learn to trade is by trading. We use a fake economy and exchange, run through many sessions of trading games designed to teach progressively more complex concepts, and auction off prizes at the end using our internal currency.
It's an immersive program and participants are expected to attend for the entirety of the bootcamp, since the content is dense and cumulative. We generally have 15-30 students.
I teach trading bootcamp with 2-3 instructors (if you've taken the bootcamp and are interested in instructing, please reach out). As of October 2024, it has been run 10 times.
