The editing and the vibes are immaculate ✨
I like how Joseph explains some of the nitty-gritty details of what he does during the day.
Love the video bro! Ur life (looks) very peaceful and beautiful..ur apartment is very nice love the views and love from Atlanta ga ❤️
yo dude, I’m in a similar position on a data team at a startup called Prefect based outta Logan square in Chicago. looks like we do similar work! dunno why the video got recommended but it was dope - good stuff
I've always wanted a video like this! The HFT world is quite secretive, and this video provided a fantastic glimpse into it, including the work culture. The video editing and choice of music were spot-on, which is often lacking in similar videos.
found this on my suggested a few days ago :) good stuff!
Love this! I just entered the changed careers to tech and currently in Chicago as well!
Content is top tier , I forgot what I was watching for lol
sick day in the life bro 👊
Bro strong af, sleeper build fr. Can you also do review of your OWC thunderbolt 3 dock?
Great quality video.
Software and trading can be high pressure when the system goes down or when the enhancements don’t come soon enough.
Nice vlog man 🔥😎
by seeing the quality of editing i thought you have several hundred thousand subscribers , but surprised by seeing only 511 .
That apartment gym is sick.
dope video!
You are only 24 and already conduct interviews? That's Crazy man!
I'm 25 mid-level, and only tech leads are doing this in the company that I work for.
haha I guess we're just given a lot of trust at my company
@@joseph-tran trust and fat stacks
he is an asian bro
Sick video bro, straight vibesss
Nice video my friend, please create more for us
I like your style :)
Looks nice. I spent some time as a SWE intern in the trading division of a famous investment bank. I think I would've prefered working at a trading firm like this.
Can't ignore the fact that everyone at lunch were either east-asians or south-asians😅. Btw, great vlog mann, keep it up!
It is Akuna, right across Buckingham Fountain.
Bah gawd, you're insane with your workouts.
this video's tobias flop is A+
Cool!
Hi from chile. Good video
cool!!
that's sooo 👌
This Is my dream, everything I do and accomplish Is so I can work towards this, I genuinely hope I can accomplish what you have. I can't imagine the sacrifices and things I'll have to give up to get to this, but I'm sure In the end It will be worth It
Keep it up!
Yo that's actually a sick gym for an apartment.
Would like to see the same video but in Chicago winter.
great idea! I'll keep this in mind
nice muscle ups!
hey can you make video on compelete roadmap to get job in HFT
Wow! would love to be an intern here!
Do you work at Akuna Capital?
Is that akuna optiver or citadel?
Looks like they put all the Asian(including Indians) together
yo bro R U from UIUC? I may saw your name on my pro's papers lol.
Can you please tell me the name of the office
We have same occupation bro. Just a question, how do you end up working there in chicago?
hey can you tell me what to learn to get job in HFT please
I missed the part where you actually do work.
I’m curious to know what chair is that you use at home
it's a steelcase gesture
Jump Trading?
Wait, no salsa dance!? Kamsamidah
akuna eh?
I don't know why I am watching this when I am a swe too lmao
nice apartment...let me guess, Nema?
Where’d get you jeans from?
uniqlo
Akuna?
HRT?!!
YOu seem to have really good wlb
which company is it? trading companies are like craaaazy difficult to get in. you must be really smart dude
he flashes an akuna backpack in the vid
I'm just curious, do you guys really get the profit by implement strategy on trading, if yes, why you guys dont just copy those code and run on your own PC get your own profit ?
1st. Because profitable trading strategies are not just a few lines of code, plus even if that were possible, you would be imprisoned and then sued by the company, as has happened in many cases. See Bloomberg articles on this.
2nd. Many trading companies run HFT strategies - it's just not possible to run these on your own PC.
3rd. You're risking your own capital, and a specific strategy usually is not profitable for such a long time.
4th. Lack of infrastructure. Similar to 2nd point.
Overall it's just better to pick stocks for long-term investment in personal accounts.
@@Lambyyy thanks, I think lack of infrastructure is the top reason
Can u refer me in your company
02:20 my boi has an hickey
are you happy?
yea! I really like my teammates and manager. Team selection is always a dice roll and I got lucky
@@joseph-tran awesome!
That's the question which matters the most
chin chan chun 👲
are u just using python ? thats all you really showed.
Yep, I mostly write object-oriented Python for internal tooling and functional PySpark code when working with data
What city do u work in
chicago!
Love the video!
what is your annual salary?
I can go over my compensation in a future video :)
Check levels
Doesn't look like you needed to be at the office at all.
Why go into an office? Can't you just work from home?
why not? it's like 2 blocks away :)
I'm WFH now and sometimes I'm missing going to office.
Is Kevin single?
yep ;)
bro can have shit in chicago
the fuck's farenit?
Optiver
Great Video, but not a fan of that open work environment. Also why are all the Asians in the same area?
ooff you are so cool! do you have instagram?
