Toronto-based Collective2 trading strategist James Leigh believes that, as a trader, you absolutely need to let most opportunities pass you by. Most traders believe that they need to do everything, when the opposite is true. "Slow down and think long-term" Leigh urges. "It's said the deal of a lifetime comes around every 90 days". James Leigh's popular C2 strategy, Correlation Factor, is a highly backtested sector rotation strategy that picks 5 sectors of favorable strength and stability (US equities not including energy and minerals); trends across the various sectors are updated daily where upon detecting a 'stale' trend it rotates into something more favorable.  In episode 12 of Top Trader Radio, we dive into why James believes his strategy has outperformed the market, the benefits of a sector rotational strategy, and how to keep your losses at a minimum.  "Everyone wants to invest in something long-term...but, before it becomes a good long-term trend it needs to be a good short-term trend."

It took a high school business teacher's stock market competition to inspire the interest of Danny Merkel, a portfolio manager and founder of the 'The Momentum of Now' C2 trading strategy. Danny's successful 10-year career in trading (mostly individual stocks of a wide variety, across many sectors) is methodological and rules-based: cut losers, let winners ride.  In Episode 11 of Top Trader Radio, Charley explores Danny's rigorous systematic approach to trading, the best advice he's ever received, the benefits of varying stocks across many sectors, and even dives into the future of Bitcoin from a trader's perspective. At the end of the day, Danny says, you need to learn to think in terms of the next 1,000 trades; position sizing and a little perspective is everything.   "When it comes to Bitcoin, you need an exit strategy. If you don't manage the risk, it could end up really bad." Danny Merkel Trade Leader, The Momentum of Now Danny Merkel is a trader from Toronto, Canada with over 10-years of experience. He applies Trend Following strategies to individual stocks and ETFs. You can connect with him on Twitter or follow his 3 strategies on Collective2.

Four years ago, Richard Metzger went from designing the logic that goes into cell phones, computers and electronics to designing trading algorithms for his own venture AlgorithmicTrading.net. The results in just a short time have been impressive.  In Episode 9 of Top Trader Radio, Richard and host Charley Wright cover a broad range of topics from why to avoid perfection to how to use inversely correlated instruments to hedge. Richard has algorithms for a variety of market conditions but within each strategy he advocates for simplicity when possible.  Richard offers one of his marquee strategies under the name Swing Trader ES TY on a privately branded Collective2 site.  "Always remember, don't let the perfect become the enemy of the sufficient ... because back-testing is only a small part of the battle. I've coded over 300 algorithms, almost all of which did poorly when applied to live trades. A few stood out as gems and those are what we offer to our customers today." Richard Metzger Founder, Lead Developer, Quant Algorithms LLC Richard spent over 10 years as a logic designer engineer at Fortune 500 companies including Hewlett-Packard, Intel, and Qualcomm. In 2013, after trading on the side during his entire career, he founded AlgorithmicTrading.net (now under parent company Quant Algorithms) to capitalize on his expertise in algorithm development, finite state machine coding/design and advanced mathematics. Richard has a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering with a computer science emphasis from Boise State. 

In 1995, Brad Pappas formed Rocky Mountain Humane Investing, Corp (RMHI), an independent Boulder investment advisory firm to cater to Vegan and Socially Responsible Investing.  RMHI was the first investment adviser in the United States that focused exclusively on humane and environmentally screening as part of a socially responsible investing philosophy. In Episode 7 of Top Trader Radio, Brad and host Charley Wright talk about the investment approach behind several strategies tracked on Collective2 including Optimized Partners I and The Vegan Growth Portfolio.  Topics include trend following, what makes a market worthy of investment, and the common question of whether socially responsible investing means sacrificing performance.  Brad's proprietary ranking and trading systems have been public on Collective2.com  since 2013.

Software Architect Daniel Tochner wanted a way to backtest, optimize, and execute multiple algorithmic trading strategies at a portfolio level. When he was unable to find a platform that was capable of the heavy lifting required to meet his needs, he set out to design and build it himself, and IQBroker was born. In Episode 5 of Top Trader Radio, Daniel and host Charley Wright cover the features and benefits of the IQBroker software which was recently selected as Collective2’s first Preferred Trading Platform.  Daniel explains how IQBroker allows multiple strategies, within a single portfolio, to trade multiple symbols, on multiple exchanges… and to use multiple bar-types, news feeds, RSS feeds, and fundamental data. The result of over 11 years of R&D, IQBroker is one of the most powerful and feature-rich broker-neutral trading platforms for equities, futures and forex. IQBroker has received rave reviews from quantitative and algorithmic traders all over the world. 

Listen as Charley talks to Matthew Klein, the CEO of Collective2, an investing web site where great traders from around the world ask Collective2 to track their brokerage results in real-time. Then other investors can “subscribe” to these traders, and automatically follow their trades in their own brokerage account. Collective2 was founded in 2001. It has more than 100,000 registered users and 15,000 published strategies. Over $75 million dollars of investor capital is connected to the Collective2 platform.

What would it take to get a managing director, managing a hundred billion dollars of fixed income assets at BlackRock, to jump ship to a start up asset manager? That’s the question I posed to Brian Weinstein, Chief Investment Officer of Blue Elephant Capital Management. His firm is a quickly growing investor in the peer to peer and direct lending space. In Brian’s investment universe, the world is starved for yield and addicted to liquidity. When looking for his next investment, Brian and his firm pore through loan portfolios that are accompanied by lots of data to stress test performance assumptions. In his world, banks really ARE good at lending, so he’s looking at spaces where the banks aren’t participating as much in his pursuit for returns. Brian joins me to discuss how peer to peer investors like him find opportunities by filling in some of the voids left behind by banks. We’ll hear what types of peer and direct lending he’s looking to invest in and what spaces he’s avoiding. We’ll also talk about boat finance. Yes, I said it, boat finance. *****This week’s episode of the Tradestreaming Podcast was sponsored by Collective2 — automated trading for humans.

Online lending is enjoying its moment. New platforms are launching monthly and raising hundreds of millions of dollars in debt and equity in a race to redefine how we borrow and from whom. And it’s not just a US phenomenon -- Starting 5 years ago, Funding Circle was an early player in this marketplace lending space and has emerged as a leader servicing SMBs. The firm is originating $100 million in SMB loans every month and since inception has lent $1.7 billion to 12,000 businesses. The company was quick to expand internationally -- with strong footholds in Western Europe and the US. The company is exclusively focused on providing finance to small business owners worldwide. Institutional lenders are looking to deploy capital across markets and Funding Circle is enjoying scale advantages from this exposure. Sam Hodges, the co-founder of Funding Circle USA, joins us on the Tradestreaming Podcast to discuss the challenges he and his company successfully navigated in growing the business globally and how he’s planning to continue growing out into the next year. *****This week’s episode of the Tradestreaming Podcast was sponsored by Collective2 — automated trading for humans.

One of the themes we’re tracking here at Tradestreaming is the confluence of incumbent financial institutions with new technologies, platforms, and tools. When you look at some of the largest and oldest financial institutions, some are indeed embracing the future. Western Union is one of those firms. You’re probably familiar with the fact that Western Union provides consumers and businesses with a variety of ways to send and receive money around the world. Through multiple brands , the company, which is 164 years old, has built a combined network of over 500,000 agent locations in 200 countries and territories and over 100,000 ATMs and kiosks, giving it the capability to send money to hundreds of millions of accounts. In 2014, The Western Union Company completed 255 million consumer-to-consumer transactions worldwide, moving $85 billion of principal between consumers, and 484 million business payments. The scale is staggering and what’s interesting is how the firm is embracing some of the same tools its customers are using. Earlier in the fall, WesternUnion launched The WU Connect service which opens Western Union’s internal transaction processing network to companies that want to offer social and text payment capabilities to their own customers. The company created application programming interfaces and a software developer’s kit to let social networks, like Facebook, access the service. And just a couple of weeks ago, the company annoucned that WeChat, the Asian communications platform, is rolling out an integration that would enable its 600M active users to send money to one another over the WU Connect service. David Thompson, Western Union’s Chief Information Officer, joins us today on the Tradestreaming Podcast to discuss how his firm views the convergence of social, technology, and finance and how he’s helped manage the internal processes to ensure Western Union stays competitive and relevant throughout the evolution of today’s technology. *****This week’s episode of the Tradestreaming Podcast was sponsored by Collective2 — automated trading for humans.

Last week’s episode featured Vince Passione from LendKey -- an innovative company turning offline lenders into online ones. In the rush to digital, we’re seeing pureplay fintech startups attempting their best to disrupt the industry. Others take a different tack -- they empower the existing banking, investing, payment providers to compete better with the tools and technologies their current and future clients are asking for. Our guest on this week’s podcast is Stephen Dubois of Xignite. His firm empowers both old and new players with API feeds of financial market data. Most of the online investment platforms, from Wealthfront to Motif to Robinhood, are clients. And so are Blackrock and Charles Schwab. A pioneer in the amazing things happening in fintech today, Stephen joins me on a recent trip to Jerusalem for a conversation about the future of investing, how investing technology and tools have changed over the past 10 years and how he thinks they’ll continue to change in the future. *****Sponsors***** This week's episode of the Tradestreaming Podcast was sponsored by Collective2 -- automated trading for humans.

As the interest in fintech and financial services in general continues to grow, there’s been chatter of an Uber-like disruption by the startups in the space. Our next guest, Vince Passione would beg to differ. He’s the CEO of LendKey which provides the incumbent banking system the digital tools it needs to sufficiently compete in marketplace lending. The issue right now isn’t whether marketplace lending is going to grow, it’s more of who takes the lead in this space. It’s worth listening to Vince because he’s been a major part of the move to digitize financial services, leading Citi’s move online and Ameritrade’s Institutional Client group. This move to online lending started with pure play disrupters like Lending Club and Propser and is moving to a more collaborative environment with traditional institutions following quickly with their own offerings powered by companies like LendKey. The company has 320 clients and has helped originate over $1 billion in loans with its banking clients. In Vince’s opinion, there will never be an Uberization of finance because banks and credit unions do eventually adopt technology. They survive. Same thing happened in Internet banking. There is an entire system of trust and regulatory framework built around banks making them very hard to disintermediate. In this sense, LendKey is providing the shovels and pickaxes for the marketplace lending goldrush and it’s selling them to the big boys. *****Sponsors***** This week's episode of the Tradestreaming Podcast was sponsored by Collective2 -- automated trading for humans.
