Adam Grimes Interview - Chat With Traders Episode 115

Adam Grimes is back!

You may have heard him sharing some great tips when he was first on episode 20 (I made a mistake saying it was episode 20 as you’ll hear in the audio, but it was actually episode 21), so it’s great to have him back on sharing even more information.

In case you don’t know, Adam has been trading for more than 20 years. He’s got a wide variety of experience, meaning he has traded on various time frames on all major asset classes. He’s also traded with a prop firm as well as independently, all while running other businesses.

This episode focuses on exploring some of the things that quantitative traders can use and adapt from discretionary traders (and vice versa). In other words, How quantitative traders learn and adapt from those who rely on discretion.

Later on in the episode, Adam shares a solid framework for those who struggle to make progress. He lays it out a plan for you to follow and start moving forward. Adam also reveals the kinds of questions you need to ask, especially when you don’t that you know something.

Adam also graciously agreed happily to answer any questions you may have after listening to the episode. If you have a question for Adam, make sure to head to chatwithtraders.com/115 and ask your question in the comments section.
