 The Mission

## Making Institutional Trading Research Accessible

 Robust trading research is difficult to find. In our due diligence on outside teams, we have repeatedly seen promising results built on a narrow idea that fails when market conditions change or the research is tested more rigorously.

 That is why we are building a path that starts with the foundations and progresses towards work we could evaluate for the Robuxio desk. We share the research process behind our own strategies, while giving serious traders a clear route to develop and demonstrate what they can do.

 The long-term goal is to find traders whose research can add something genuinely different to the portfolios we run. If we can pass on what we have learned and eventually discover people we want to work with, the path has served both sides.

 The Path

## Choose Your Starting Point

 The path runs from the fundamentals in the Playbook, through advanced research together in the Lab, to potentially partnering on the Robuxio trading desk. Start at the level that matches your experience.

 “An honest and clear book, well worth reading”

 The biggest thing for me was how it explains momentum and mean reversion strategies without assuming you already know everything. … As a beginner, I needed to hear that.

 From the students

 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

 “The best algorithmic trading course I have taken, with concepts explained in a clear, easy-to-understand way and a well-defined end goal. Most quant and algorithmic trading courses I have attended were filled with complex jargon and lacked clear objectives, making them difficult to follow.”

 David Lee · Course student ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

 “In the retail space, more than 95% of content is discretionary nonsense. This is the opposite: a retail-oriented approach to strategy development that follows the structure used in the professional space. I could not recommend this course more.”

 David · Course student ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

 “A great foundational level course that teaches you how to properly build a portfolio based on robust trading strategies. The knowledge gained is equally applicable to other asset classes. If you are new to systematic trading, this is definitely the right place to start.”

 Ben Osborn · Systematic stock trader ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

 “Data driven and first principle, idea first approach to trading. I suppose there is no other course on crypto online going this deep into trading nuances. Portfolio approach to trading utilising capital efficiently, handling max DD and optimizing for returns. Good starting point for unprofitable and struggling traders to execute a positive EV system.”

 Mohd Wasil · Engineer, IIT Delhi ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

 “The course is well done and my experience confirms it.”

 Fede · Course student ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

 “I cannot see how anyone would not benefit from the course so I would definitely recommend it.”

 Level Four · Submit Your Work

## Work With Us

 We are always looking to partner with strong systematic traders. A strategy that is genuinely uncorrelated with what we already run is worth more to the portfolio than one that simply performs well on its own, because it improves how the whole book behaves.

 If your work holds up, it is evaluated against the same bar as our own strategies and can be implemented alongside them. What that process looks like is on the page behind the button.
