Hey Brent, loving the substack and just finished the Alpha Trader book (great book btw). I’ve been trading for 3 years now and have finally seen some consistency in my trading. Currently I work as a software engineer, but am looking into doing a career switch into trading.

I know there are many jobs that overlap with tech and trading, but was wondering if you could give any insight on how to break into more traditional trading roles. It seems like most roles today are focused on quantitative analysis, market making or HFTs, but maybe it’s just my bias as my peers in tech work in or around these businesses. If you had to start your trading career all over again today, how would you go about it?

Keep up the great content, and wishing you a great 2023!
