Would you trust a computer to make your stock trades? Well, that’s exactly what algorithmic trading does. Bert Mouler, founder and CIO of Profluent Capital, develops artificial intelligence that creates an algorithm for optimal trading. Bert explains what algorithmic trading is and how it differs from robo-advisors. He explains why algorithmic trading is efficient, and assures investors that the computer is simply a tool, not the advisor. Is this investment strategy right for you?

Being asked to transfer your account out, can be disheartening, but it doesn’t have to be.

While listening, I encourage you to keep an open mind and mull over Bert’s creative thoughts!

Today we have a quick chat about technology and in particular Blockchain. Yes, Blockchain has been around for a few years now but we’re really seeing more and more of it in the news lately, and there has been a lot of hype about the potential applications of this technology. Some people have even said the Blockchain will have a greater impact on our lives than ANY other technology that exists today. How big is that? Much of the hype around Blockchain has been focused on the financial industry, or the potential for Blockchain to fundamentally change the financial services industry. Which got me thinking.. ... How could this impact us in the future, both as traders and as fine, upstanding members of society? :-) Anyway, my own personal knowledge of Blockchain was pretty limited - even though I’d heard of it a number of times I didn’t really have an idea of what it was. But I do remember that Bert Mouler mentioned it episode 64 of the podcast where we were discussing cryptocurrencies. So I asked Bert to come back on the show and give us a very quick introduction into Blockchain: What is it Why are people so excited about it The possible applications to the financial services industry, traders and society in general. So let’s head over to Bert and hear what the fuss is all about!

What you’re about to hear is an interview with Bert Mouler – he’s a trader of futures and equities, and has been involved with markets since ’07. But he does things a little different to most… He’s an algorithmic trader who harnesses the power of machine learning to discover and develop profitable trading strategies. This is an area that hasn’t been covered in previous episodes, (except for the odd mention here and there) so it was really great to have Bert on the show to share some insight on machine learning and how it works in the field of trading. Beyond this, you’ll also hear Bert’s views on diversification and how he thinks about risk management. Plus, one of the things I really respect about Bert – his drive for continual progression, attitude towards further education, and the way he approaches goal setting.
