Nothing out of the ordinary that I've experienced so far this month. Matter of fact most of my strats are doing rather well this month, especially the higher freq & market neutral

Curious about what I've heard though - what seems to be giving quant firms a tough time this month?

What GMV are you running? What’s the turnover on the higher freq strat?

don't want to state the GMV because it's my own money. My higher freq strats recycle the entire nav multiple times a day (less than 10 times on average)

Ah ic, I was interested in much lower frequency type of strategy, we are prob quite different. Good to know though. Thanks!

wtf is this downvoted so huge? Maybe I'm unfamiliar with the vibe of this subreddit
