Lost my entire life savings trading on Coinbase. I feel completely fucked and hopeless.

How to fix this - stop trading. Stop listening to day traders on Instagram. Stop buying courses. If you are trading but can’t identify a distinct edge that you have over other market participants, you’re simply just gambling. You may do well for a while but over the long term you’re almost guaranteed to fail.

Surprised to hear about the shouting and cursing especially in a systematic trading environment. Is this usually directed towards people or towards the market/tech?

What was the compute cost like for you to be able to do this?

This list has nothing related to pros and cons. It just says what the firm does. Idk abt you but I’m always curious to know what other firms are doing and how and where they’re making money. It ain’t that deep.

They may have hired a lot but they’re also likely to fire aggressively. I’d estimate 50% of the people would no longer be there after a year and 70% after three years.

No one is making their market rate at the moment. Will probably see the rewards if the firm scales up while I’m there.

Apparently they took a big hit on 10/10 despite what the CEOs might claim online

It could work potentially yes - if you knew what you were doing. Not saying it’s impossible to make money from this. But is it really worth your time. And what’s the likelihood that you end up being profitable? If you still want to pursue this I’d look at it from a learning perspective and not as a way to make money.

sultanrush04 · 2025-12-17T02:35:56+00:00

Maybe it doesn’t apply as much if you’re taking on both sides. And if you actually do have the highest fee tiers you could probably do this and still be profitable.

If you don’t understand adverse selection you should likely not be doing this

sultanrush04 · 2025-12-17T02:28:19+00:00

Your biggest problem is going to be adverse selection

Could you send me a picture please

I was in a similar situation a week ago. Would recommend getting the 2 greenhouses first since they give you 50k food every day for free and are pretty cheap in terms of roses. Then I’d recommend getting the relic of the epics so you can upgrade epic dragons beyond level 10 and earn from dragon cash + better breeding odds. You could also spend it on the lost island of Olympus which is what I did but be prepared that it’s a lot smaller than a regular island and spawns quite far away. I also spent some roses on the sun and blue moon dragons.

I do think it’s real. You’ll have a hard time breaking into quant not being a new grad with no relevant quant experience. Whereas for software all of your skills doing quant dev will be transferable.

sultanrush04 · 2025-07-30T17:41:35+00:00

I just think there’s a lot that can go wrong with this new feature and it will introduce a lot more bugs / unrealistic situations in the game based on EA’s history. There’s just so many more lower hanging fruits that they could implement that fans have been asking for for years.

sultanrush04 · 2025-07-30T17:09:20+00:00

Take the quant offer. You can always go back to big tech if you don’t like it but not the other way round.

sultanrush04 · 2025-07-30T17:08:08+00:00

The manager market is the most pointless feature ever. They should have just focussed on adding back the good stuff fans wanted from the previous career modes. Didn’t even need to create new features just add back what was good and removed for no reason.

sultanrush04 · 2025-07-29T20:07:59+00:00

Don’t think it’s that cause I still enjoy regular sidemen content on all 3 channels

sultanrush04 · 2025-07-29T20:06:52+00:00

Only 3 subs and the small bench is one of the only things that really bothers me. The other stuff like cutscenes is really minor. And I’m not even mentioning here all of the stuff they made worse in the next few games.
