Summary of the video

In this video, Hrishabh talks about starting his career as a trader. He shares the story of his interest in markets, and how b-school was a great opportunity that helped him train the market muscle. He further talks about how b-school is not a placement agency, but a place to gather knowledge and networks.

He shares how 2 years at b-school are a great time to dabble in different competitions and clubs in order to figure out what one wants to do in the future. Further, he talks about working with Citibank, and how he heard abuses hurled on his very first day. He talks about being resilient, and emotionally aloof on the trading floor. Next, he takes us through the skills that a trader needs.

Hrishabh talks about the importance of planning one’s day before work and analysing the daily work done in order to improve. He shares how traders keep a diary where they note down daily strategies, observations and activities, thus learning on a day to day basis.

Finally, Hrishabh touches upon algo trading and machine learning and how these are changing the way trading is done. He tells us about how machine learning is used in the trade of derivatives and commodities and further mentions how certain types of trade still require a human touch.
