Trading idea: Easy. Execution: Nearly impossible. You can't track every indicator and time every potential trade. So we spent 5 years building an AI to help do it for you. Just describe your strategy in plain English. It helps you do the rest.

Great to see both Ender's Capital and @ComposerTrade getting a shoutout! "I think that the next generation of hedge funds won't be from Wall Street, and I think that's a good thing, since the talent is no longer centralized," Nashawaty said. Couldn't agree more!

The zero alcohol movement is funny because a lot of people traded drinks with friends for social media doomscrolling, porn, and gambling by themselves.

I think that once economic growth gets high enough, and living standards are universally high, money will cease to be an especially interesting yardstick of human accomplishment. We already have early microcosms of this phenomenon that I believe will become universal.

My ethical criteria for new kinds of consumer trading apps: If, over the long term, it’s positive expectation -> good If, over the long term, it’s negative expectation -> bad That is, on average, do users of the app grow wealth over time? Or do they erode it? In the short term,

In my opinion, the next biggest shift in retail trading isn’t zero commissions, social trading, or prediction markets. It’s automation. Automated trading volume per week on @ComposerTrade is up more than 4× from 90M to 402M in less than two years and consistently accounts for

if thinking too much is a bad thing according to influencers here, then how come LLMs keep getting smarter with more thinking tokens?

I dont think most early stage founders realize just how nonsense and low signal valuations can be. I’ve heard many founders say “well this company proved the market is huge — they’re worth $X Billion” and meanwhile, the company’s revenue is single digit millions.

I see Hendrix as the purest example of something AI shows no evidence of being able to achieve. He was so far out of distribution, such a leap from anything else - and wildly, still is!
Hendrix was simultaneously rooted, and absolutely free. That’s what is still continuously astonishing, many years on, He moves freely from moment to moment. Even as certain vernacular phrases, reminiscent of say Chuck Berry occur, he is not tied to them. Truly remarkable.

Jimi Hendrix unleashing "Foxy Lady" live at Royal Albert Hall, '69. A guitar genius unmatched to this day.

anti-Indian racism is totally out of control. And pointing that out isn't virtue signaling - it's just being normal and stating a fact
