Ask HN: Anyone making money through algorithmic trading?
6 by charlesdm | 2 comments on Hacker News.
Is there anyone here making money on smaller trading strategies (i.e. in the stock market or cryptocurrencies) that would not be interesting enough for larger algorithmic trading firms? I'm aware the standard advice is that you will lose your shirt attempting to compete with algorithmic and HFT firms. But are there opportunities out there for smaller strategies to generate alpha? (I'm assuming yes, but would be great to find people who actually do this -- no need to disclose _how_ you actually do it, obviously)
