Many thanks for your constant uploads Dimitri. Very Informative. As a PhD student in Electrical and Computer engineering with a bachelor and master in physics, is there a recipe to be followed to start a career in Quantitative Finance?

Im just catching myself up on your videos and wow you answered a lot of my questions. Im just curious would Quant Finance be a good fit for day-traders or if not what would be a better field of study?

Hi Dimitri, as an applied math and finance student I really appreciated the video. Currently, I'm following some AI courses online and I was wondering whether a career in quant finance (more focused on programming and research) can lead to jobs in the machine learning/ai sector?

Hey Dimitri, how much does theoretical math such as real analysis and measure theoretic probability show up in your job? Linear algebra?

Dimitri, i might be mistaken but I think you linked the wrong LinkedIn profile for yourself
