Trader

"As a trader, my main focus is developing better strategies. A better strategy needs good ideas, and good ideas come from various sources. I get many ideas from simple things like news and price movements.

A good strategy also needs a tremendous amount of detail work to refine and improve. I believe it is the attention to detail that differentiates a good strategy from an average one. My day's work is about understanding the details of the problem, analyzing various scenarios and implementing the solution."
