How to get an interview at a hedge fund/trading firm as a software engineer?
Hey everyone, I graduated last summer (2020) with a degree in computer engineering and have been working for over a year at a defense company as a software engineer. I feel like my learning has been capped here and I want to try to break into the trading industry as I also have a passion for finance and trading. I started applying to different hedge funds but I've been getting rejected by them left and right, whereas I was just able to get through to the final round of interviews for Amazon's SDE role. Does anyone know what these hedge funds look for that's different from some of the other top tech companies? I'm trying to get a list of all the possible ways I can get in and see which one suits me best.

Recently, some investors have complained about exposing GQFX as a scam. According to one investor's complaint, GQFX got his personal information from somewhere. The investor was lured into a secondary scam with the idea that it would help him get back the money he had lost from his money management. GQFX asked the investor to buy their currency, eventually making it impossible to withdraw more than $140,000 from his account. According to another investor's complaint, GQFX successively induced the investor to transfer money to hedge his account, then froze it under the pretext that he was suspected of money laundering, and successively asked him to transfer $800,000 in authorized funds to unfreeze his account. On February 26, the investor applied for a withdrawal, but the money disappeared, neither arriving nor returning to his account. Now GQFX has also blocked the investor's account. Complaint details: https://www.fxgecko.net/en_US/platform/15652.html FxGecko APP shows that GQFX has a rating of only 5.9, which is suspected of false advertising. Moreover, its investment and trading services are not regulated and the safety of investors' funds is not protected. You need to be wary of scammers masquerading as legitimate brokers. Meanwhile, FxGecko reminds you not to trust withdrawal schemes that require credit scores, deposits, tax payments, bank fees, etc. If you have been scammed, it is recommended to seek immediate help from the local police or a lawyer. Also beware of falling into the trap of a "recovery scam", which specialises in selling hope and then tricking you into paying for it. https://preview.redd.it/zosjyk23cjm81.png?width=953&format=png&auto=webp&s=3a1fc18217538917b451678e48756889c55699d2 https://preview.redd.it/mmt2hk23cjm81.png?width=961&format=png&auto=webp&s=b47e6886d1f518ec9cf6e5d677bbe93400c6a4f7 https://preview.redd.it/zlmrlq23cjm81.png?width=401&format=png&auto=webp&s=1dff5ed66dc2e6f66d1f18f8fd7275226ce96b1f FxGecko reminds you that investment involves risk, you'd better check the broker's information and user reviews on FxGecko before investing.

"Bitcoin is not a currency, nor is it a payment network. It is a bank in cyberspace, run by incorruptible software, offering a global, affordable, simple, & secure savings account to billions of people that don't have the option or desire to run their own hedge fund." - M. Saylor
This is from The Complete Case for $100K Bitcoin. wherein this quotation is referenced (towards the end). There's validity pointing out that the statement is not 100% perfectly accurate in technical terms. Though, I do also think that people may be apt to missing the overarching theme of the tweet. There's rhetoric to consider here. "Rhetorical nuance" if you will. It's like a football aficionado saying, "Football is not a game. It has nothing to do with a ball. It's a way of life and freedom for the spirit." Of course that's not 100% perfectly accurate in technical terms, but it gives an idea as to what it can stand for and mean to some people, while also holding some more universal, philosophical truths. I really like this thinking and sort of statement. Obviously, CEO of Microstrategy, Mr. Saylor, sees a future wherein blockchain technology / distributed ledger technology is something like ubiquitous and authoritative. I, too, share that vision - as I'm sure many reading now do, too. Along with that, though, is a thinking outside of traditional and restrictive ideation. It's "untraditional" in so many words. Just because you've/we've/they've done something like that for a thousand years doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't do something like this now. Edit: I'm surprised no one has noticed yet, but the quote in the title of the post is not in the article (c'mon people, you need to be a little more vigilant; your life may depend on it god dammit) ... ... ... it was. I remember reading it and is the reason I initially posted it a couple of months back and wanted to post it again, because it really gives a good perspective and idea of what's possible with DLT. Nevertheless, I'm now searching for it and not finding it anywhere. I haven't done a search of all his tweets, so imagine it is there somewhere, but maybe someone reading this now can link it for everyone if they find it. Edit2: Here's something close from Kraken.

Advice: Software Engineering in Top Hedge Fund v/s Trader in Small Prop shop before MFE
I am looking for some advice. Currently I am working as Software Dev in FAANG and have received a Software Dev offer from D.E. Shaw. My end goal is to become a Quant Trader in a prop shop/ Hedge Fund in buy-side in US. For that I am currently applying to MFE (Financial Engineering), MSCF (Computational Finance) programs in the universities: Berkeley, CMU, Columbia and Cornell (2022 batch) I am also applying for interviews in small prop shops for quant trade researcher roles in buy side to gain experience in this field before getting Masters. I want some advice about which side should I prefer ( Software developer in D E Shaw or continue applying for Quant Trader in prop shops ) based on following considerations: a. Which guy would you hire for Quant Trading from the top schools ? One who was SDE in a top hedge fund or one who has Trading experience in small mostly unknown prop shops? b. Which of these roles would increase my chances of getting an admission in these schools? Some other information which might help: a. I will join Software Developer as a senior engineer v/s Trader as a junior trader b. I will have around 8-9 months of experience in either firms before I join MFE / MSCF which starts around august next year. c. I am keen on going to the above mentioned colleges only, I would rather wait here and re apply with more prep next year if I don't get it this year.
Michael Saylor Was Asked on CNBC: Are you a Software Company or are you a Bitcoin Hedge Fund?
Are you paying attention? MicroStrategy CEO Michal Saylor already invested $425 million of the company's assets in Bitcoin in August. Yesterday, he was on CNBC to talk about Bitcoin and faced a tricky question. His response was just on point, that I took some time to transcribe the entire interview. I'll be highlighting some sections to pay attention to if you're investing in Bitcoin for the long-term. CNBC Reporter: Are you a software company or are you a Bitcoin hedge fund? Michael Saylor: First of all, we do have a software company generating cash, but if we simply swept the cash into fiat currency and allowed it to debase to 15% a year, we'll be losing as much on the balance sheet as we generated from the PNL. So that didn't make sense. On the other hand, the traditional concerns about Bitcoin have been that it might be hacked, it might be copied, it might be banned. And after a decade it hasn't been hacked, no one's managed to copy, it's not gonna be banned. So, although people look at it as being volatile. it's volatile maybe in the first decade. The next decade going forward it doesn't look like it's gonna be that volatile. It actually looks like it's emerging as the primary reserve asset for people that are looking for some way to avoid degrade monetary inflation. CNBC Reporter: How do you view the size of your Bitcoin position relative to the size of your business in a zero point at which even just for portfolio management purposes you trim your Bitcoin position in order to be conservative? Your enterprise value is worth 2.4 billion dollars or so, I'm not sure what your Bitcoin position is, you initially invested $425 million or so back in August and that position is gotta be enormous by now. Michael Saylor: We love the enterprise business, intelligence business. But, we don't want to decapitalize the company by drawing our treasury to zero. And we don't want to allow our treasury to be debased by 10 or 20% a year either. So, we had to do something. So, I think that as investors start to understand the Bitcoin story, they're gonna migrate their capital on the Bitcoin network and that's gonna create a virtual cycle or adoption followed by price appreciation, followed by value accretion, followed by technology integration from companies like you see Square and PayPal, it will be Apple and Google shortly. That's gonna drive more adoption. And that means that you really want to plug your company into the Bitcoin monetary network. It's probably the biggest thing that's happened over the last decade. it's gonna be bigger than the FAANG stocks, it's gonna be bigger than Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and the social networks. It's the ideal time to plug into it because 99% of the investors don't understand what I just said. And with $350 billion dollars of monetary energy in the Bitcoin network, it is all but unstoppable at this point. CNBC Reporter: Last quick question Michael, and this is a simple straightforward one. Michael Saylor: Our PNL is a software company and we sell the world's best enterprise business intelligence software. Our balance sheet is no longer invested in dollars. Our balance sheet is invested in BTC because we believe that is the best treasury reserve asset we could choose in the world. [End] Once again I ask, Are you paying attention? Investing in Bitcoin isn't a short-term game, and the patient folks will be most likely be rewarded.

Can anyone please give me advice on this scenario? I am trying to start a cryptocurrency hedge fund with a friend. We found an administrator that will charge us $2k-$3k per month, an accountant, and a lawyer. So I feel like we have a good team as soon as we raise enough money (for us we would need a couple million). However, my friend recently started looking into software such as FundCount. He is telling me that we could buy this software for a one time payment of $25k, and then completely eliminate our administrator that is 2k-3k per month. My first thought is that this is a bad idea. He doesn't even know if FundCount works with crypto exchanges. I would rather use the fund administrator as we originally planned. In my mine, it looks like people are using this software as a compliment to their administrator, and not as a replacement. Anyone have thoughts on this? Track record: I have traded $200 into over $2m without using leverage, with only one drawdown > 20%. Hopefully this cuts out the "you will never make it starting a fund!" comments. I have plenty to trade on my own, and from my perspective I am thinking more on the lines of "I will trade for a fund if other people want me to and trust me and I think I have a good strategy", not just to make money.
Do the SEC (or FINRA, DTCC etc) have some kind of special tools or software to monitor the markets the hedge funds don't have?
https://preview.redd.it/26i511eu9be71.jpg?width=625&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bb112232ef539a04bca26426cdf914f486527455 ...or is it even game between the regulators and hedge funds? A game of hide and seek with actually no real consequences (?). I know the hedge funds need to follow rules and much of this is based on trust and concrete reporting back to the authorities, but where there is money, there is always, always, a lot of fraud and deception. It really baffles my mind that it is possible to f.ex hide 1 million+ puts from the American stock market in the bushes somewhere in Brazil. And Shitadel can just create there own dark pool that don't have to report volume to FINRA. To outsiders, the American stock market looks like a real big mess where no one actually has control over anything... OR do the SEC have some kind of super tools they use? Disclaimer: I have noe clue how the stock markets actually works, and I am not American, so please treat me like a 5 year old boy or a golden retriever.
Software Development at Bulge Bracket vs Largish Hedge Fund
Im currently working in financial technology and have been headhunted by many recruiters. After interviewing I have two offers: fixed income market making at a very well known BB and a lesser known, but respectable hedge fund doing OTC instrument pricing, risk, and PnL. The hedge fund pays slightly more. It seems that the BB role is more front office and the hedge fund is a little more middle office. Which role would you choose and why, taking into consideration that I’m a software engineer. My Dad says hedge fund if I wanna coast and collect fat bonuses, BB if I want to take more risk and potentially earn more money in the future. Thoughts?
Investment banks and hedge funds with large inventories of securities are often lenders in the repo market. They have securities, but wish to repo them out for cash to fund the everyday operations of their business. Cash providers include other types of asset managers and money-market funds that lend out their cash for extra return. Why is it important? The supply and demand for short-term ...
