High School Dropout Turned Quant Trader, Entrepreneur (Pre & Post FTX Collapse) · Kasper Vandeloock

EP 251 | High School Dropout Turned Quant Trader, Entrepreneur (Pre & Post FTX Collapse) | Kasper Vandeloock

The FTX collapse, arrest of Sam Bankman Fried, and the subsequent collapse of the crypto market opened new opportunities for Kasper, while other players were forced to exit the market.

NOTE: There are two parts to this interview. The first part was recorded prior to the collapse of the crypto market due to the downfall of FTX. After the collapse, we had a shorter follow-up interview with Kasper to get his perspective on the impact of the collapse of FTX and how it impacted his strategies.

When he was just 16 years old, Kasper Vandeloock received his first Bitcoin as payment for his programming skills. Intrigued by the emerging opportunities in crypto currencies, Kasper dropped out of high school to dive deep into learning everything he could about this fast-paced new type of finance and medium of exchange. Spotting market inefficiencies in prices between the different exchanges inspired Kasper to write his own programs which took advantage of delta neutral arbitrage opportunities.

CWT Community Discussion on Dec 12 ’22 w/ Nishant Pant (Mean Reversion Options Trader)

0

This is a recording of a live discussion session inside the CWT Community with Ian Cox (host of the Chat With Traders podcast) and CWT Community guest, Nishant Pant (Options Trader).

Learn about Nishant’s Mean Reversion trading strategies using options. Mean reversion trading in equities tries to capitalize on extreme changes in the pricing of a particular security, assuming that it will revert to its previous state. This theory can be applied to both buying and selling, as it allows a trader to profit on unexpected upswings and to save on abnormal lows.

Nishant was a Rising Star Guest on TastyTrade and the author of Mean Reversion Trading.
