Investing in hedge funds by yourself can be risky due to their complex strategies, high fees, and potential for significant losses. Without expert knowledge, it's challenging to fully assess the risks and returns, making professional guidance crucial.
Hedge funds can be tricky to navigate without deep financial expertise. The complex strategies and high fees involved mean that the risks can be substantial, and it’s hard to fully grasp these without experience. Professional guidance is key to making informed decisions and avoiding potential pitfalls.
The comments emphasize the risks of investing in hedge funds without professional expertise. A financial adviser can help navigate these complexities, ensuring that investments are well-managed and aligned with financial goals. Their guidance is crucial for assessing risks, maximizing returns, and making the investment process more secure and personalized.
My CFA NICOLE ANASTASIA PLUMLEE a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further... She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market..
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
Only 1 video on this fantastic channel?? I would really love it if you post more videos in the hedge fund / data business space. I have seen your interviews with Dimitri and Quant to follow series and they are great as well.
I really respect how genuine you are after being in this industry so long and appreciate the informative video that just reaffirms why I haven't started a firm yet. :) TBH, all of the above listed in the video is why so many traders (myself included) often give up the 'upside' with starting our own firm rather than joining an established one in a silo and taking a PL split. Infrastructure needs especially in the HFT space benefit from large economies of scale and are much easier to share across many teams/silos. Really cool you have another start-up for some of these data needs that are hard to get from 3rd party vendors at a reasonable cost.
Investors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor like Mr Sam.
Investing today is hard for me now because I have no idea of how and where to invest in. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours with Mr Sam Deymon, as I am ready to go the passive income path with him.
@gayanaehsan8158 My advice to new investors: Buy good companies stocks and hold them as long as they are good companies. Just do this and ignore the forecasts and market views which are at best entertaining but completely useless.
That was informative and fun Christina! Nailed your first video like a pro TH-camr! Would love to hear a bit more about your strategies and technology whatever you are allowed to share.
Christina! You need to make more videos about this experience. This is pure Gold! There is a major part that you are leaving out. What is your marketing strategy for raising funds from strangers? How do you compete? OR are you small fund merely raising from friends and family ... enough to give you a respectable portfolio? That makes a huge difference in the difficulty component. Anyway, keep going. This is brilliant.
Thanks, Christina! Pragmatic, no BS advice. TOO MANY gatekeepers dissuading me, instead of simply answering questions about HOW TO start a fund. Probably because they haven't :)
Absolutely love your energy, Christina! Thank you for your passion and big heart for wanting to help others avoid the pitfalls of starting a hedge fund. Stay amazing ✌️
Christina, I am so inspired by your accomplishments and mentality! I've learned much about the general aspect of starting a hedge fund! My friends are starting a hedge fund, and I am looking forward to your advice to benefit their company! Amazing inspiration and knowledge!
Please make a video concerning more mistakes you guys made along the way (only those you can legally disclose ofc) in more detail. Would love to pick your brain about more topics as well. This was absolute gold, thank you!
I absolutely love and appreciate your transparency and how open you are with your audience it's very refreshing. There are little to no fund managers on social media sharing their story like this which is a shame. So thanks again and please keep posting videos like this educating the public, maybe if people see videos like this from fund managers you guys and gals wouldn't get such a bad rap
Great content, there isn't many youtube channel doing what you do right now. My friend and I are starting a quant crypto fund after seeing our model proved to be perform better than the market, but both of us lacks professional experience in terms of setting up the legal structure. It took us 6 month just to find the right professional firm to work with us. So I'm really glad people like you who is very transparent and informative about this industry and willing to spend time to make youtube videos. Looking forward to your future videos!!!
Quick questions: 1) How long of a track record (portfolio) did you have to build before launching your venture? 2) What was your initial cap in the beginning?
I am also interested. But this video has mostly demonstrated that setting up a hedge fund these days is almost essentially about running the legal & regulatory Olympics - with trading performance and fulfilling your fiduciary duty being an after thought. Great info here but such a buzz kill.
We didn't have a previous track record, which made the chances of success extremely rare. We raised a round of GP funding while simultaneously raising LP funding - thus, had a few million in operating capital before launch. That was the only way we would've survived. I'd like to think that the good things we did outweighed all of the mistakes we made, thus leading me to this point today. Thanks for your comment and questions.
Christina, I really appreciate that you are willing to spend time sharing your knowledge and experiences. I think starting a hedge fund would be a really fun hobby, whether I do it as a side hustle or as something I do in retirement in a few years. I have what is for me a simple spreadsheet that I use to trade stocks, and it produces 2 or 3 buy and sell orders each year, with decent annual returns. I am thinking that starting a hedge fund for my family and friends is how I'd like to start; they could invest small amounts of money and hopefully grow it to help pay off a mortgage early or buy a car or something along those lines. I'm interested in opening basically the most basic hedge fund possible (I won't need any sophisticated trading algorithms, I don't think I need any employees other than those who will keep it in compliance with the law, and maybe I could hire them part-time?), the only quotes data I need is readily available on Yahoo Finance, and I can hand-enter my trades since they are so infrequent!), and so I'm curious about if I need any special degrees, licenses, certifications, and so forth to start. I would feel foolish walking into a lawyer's office and telling them I want to start a hedge fund, since I have no idea what I need to get started. But if you and others are able to start a hedge fund from your dorm room, it clearly can't be unattainable! I am in no hurry to get started, but it would be a really fun hobby and learning experience for me to look forward to doing. Please let us know the nuts and bolts of what a person needs to get started!
This is my second time ever commenting on a video. This was amazing content. Thank you so much for putting this knowledge out here and I look forward to watching many more videos.
Christina thank you very much for all the information I'm on my baby steps on creating my own hedge Fund and this is insanely useful , and so inspired by your accomplishments!!
The markets remain doubtful that the Federal Reserve will keep to its plan to raise interest rates until inflation is under control, even though bond yields are rising while stock prices are falling. What is the best method to profit from the current bear market while I'm still considering whether to sell my $401,000 worth of stocks?
I advise you to seek professional advice because building a strong financial portfolio is more challenging. Your long-term objectives and budgetary preferences can be catered to in the ideas you get after that.
Working with a reputable investing coach is currently the greatest market strategy. I've been in contact with a coach for a while, mostly because I don't have the breadth of knowledge or mental fortitude to handle current persistent market conditions. I made over $700k throughout this recession, demonstrating that the market is trickier than most people believe.
@@georgereynolds906 I need suggestions to assist me recover my portfolio and create more effective strategies because of the huge dips. How do I locate this coach?
@@greenquake11931There are many financial coaches who excel in their profession, but for the time being, I employ 'BRIDGET MARY TUROW", because I adore her methods. You can make a research and find out more about her services.
My first mentor after 5 years of consouse compitence being a prop trader... Now this video gives me a path to follow to my original goals... Thank you 🙇
Thanks so much for this! Appreciate your transparency in this series. In a future video, can you talk a bit about fundraising and designing your strategy pitch? Did you use any cap intro? What do allocators care about (stats, min AUM etc) and how do you demonstrate that your strategy is sufficiently unique?
Brilliant video, Christina! Full of insight and very comprehensive. I’d be very interested to hear more about how you built your systems from scratch. I’d guess that gives you much more control. I like the ragtime piece for the title cards!
What a gracious and lovely woman! Thank you for your generous contribution to we happy few who seek to dominate the space. Blessings to you and yours. Stay in touch.
Christina, thanks for a video! It contains very useful material. I'd like to learn more on how you chose the jurisdiction of your fund. Looking forward to the next video!
Christina, I have read a number of articles on you and watched a number of interviews. Your brilliance and foresight leave me in the dust! You said in the video here that you can give limited advice--and I am sincerely asking it. Your hedge fund structure is 0 and 40. I understand giving up the management fee but how limited would the fund be as it is marketed to investors, if the hedge fund manager had an 8% hurdle and took a share of the profits quarterly instead of at the year's end?? Now you can certainly set aside the first 8% profit in a year but it seems critical to rely on some kind of a stream of income--. So my question to you is this: Would a hedge fund cripple its marketing team by offering a 0 and 40 fund, with an 8% hurdle that is credited to the investor immediately when 8% is earned, but then split up the profit at the end of each quarter as opposed to waiting till the end of the year? I really need your unbiased answer here and I thank you very much in advance, for that. Keep up the good work and good luck to you in your new ventures.
Thanks for your questions. Before launching the fund, we started out in quant trading but realized that the faster we could analyze data and place/modify orders, the higher our PnL. Thus the foray into HFT, running low-capacity, uncorrelated, alpha-driven strategies.
Hi Christina. My request: Could you give us more content for people who want to break into trading and lack some of the hard skills? Some people, for example, may be coming from other areas of tech but don't have the data science and/or finance skills, while others maybe have finance or econ skills but not the tech and/or data science skills. What is the fastest way to get profitable trading and be able to offset income in a meaningful way, so as to free up more time to learning and honing skills in this craft, rather than slaving away in our 9-to-5? Thank you so much for sharing all this content, you're truly an incredible inspiration.
This was brilliant!!! Brilliant!!!!! It would be nice to hear you talk about likelihood of having a much better experience, control and/or edge, if you had run a prop trading business instead of a hedge fund. Seems like once you have the institutional grade capital under your belt, prop feels like a much better route, with less regulatory/compliance hassles? Good job. Wish you well!
Finally a comprehensive video! Do more please! However, the book is out of stock, checked all available websites that sell it including Amazon. The problem on my country is we do not have LLC. The available business entities on my country is Sole Proprietorship, Partnerships, and Corporation, as we know Sole Prop and Corp is an expensive entity for a starting fund. Can you go further on the LP vs LLC and if we didn’t have a choice how can we execute LP entity?
Where'd you go!? I'd love to hear a video about the specifics of your start-up phase and how you managed to raise capital from a dorm room with no track record.
So you've gotta hit the ground not running but burning money like crazy? You've gotta burn money to earn money seems to be more than just a saying. How much all the daily operations cost per month? The lawyers, accountants, office rent, all the data services, the whole nine yards, must be hundreds of thousand of dollars in monthly expenses? And whose money do you use to pay for those expenses? Yours and the money of your investors? And when you had just begun, did you have savings to finance the initial set-up process and all the operations?
Great high-level video, Christina! Looking forward to hear you to elaborate on the topics touched in the video. If I plan to start a hedge fund with 0% management fee and performance fee only, am I required to have a professional license to run the fund? The fund will invest in stocks, ETFs, and derivatives. Thanks so much!
Yes - depending on what you're trading, how you're structured, and how much you're managing, you'll need to get certain series licenses (for us it was Series 3 and 65). Fee structure doesn't affect licenses I believe. Sorry I forgot to mention licenses in my video!
Hey Christina! Thank you so much for doing this video! Our team is located in LA and looking to start a hedge fund so this is exactly the info we are looking for! Will you be kind enough to introduce us to the law firm you used? We talked to a couple so far but they told us different things. Please let me know! Thank you so much and we will check out your new startup as well. We might need that down the line! :)
Seriously useful video - and take this from someone who knows - who has been involved in launching 200 plus funds - very generous by Christina to do this - the quality of your legal partner is super super important.
I do really want to start a hedge fund, but not quite in this lifetime as I'm kinda busy doing stuff. Going to bookmark this video and come back to it In my future incarnations. Hope that's okay with you? I might have a different username or usernames as the centuries and millennia fly on by but my avatars or profile pics will be eerily similar. We'll definitely talk then okay? Thank you.
Hi Christina, I loved your video. You said it took u 3 years to start the fund, I would like to know how much would be the cost for managing all these kind of activities and, have u took any funds from investors for managing your activities or u managed it with your own funds. Also, Can u please make short videos on every step that u have mentioned in the above video but in detail with explaining the best suitable options.
More more please !!!!!!! and thanks this is insanely useful to some of us.
when are we having another video please?

Great Video! I have some questions. 1. Becoming a HFT vs Quant 2. Future of HFT and/or will it become commoditized
Thanks for your questions. Before launching the fund, we started out in quant trading but realized that the faster we could analyze data and place/modify orders, the higher our PnL. Thus the foray into HFT, running low-capacity, uncorrelated, alpha-driven strategies.

Thank you for the amazing and insane honest sharing for us out here. Successful always behind you. Thank tou Christina✌😍

The problem on my country is we do not have LLC.
The available business entities on my country is Sole Proprietorship, Partnerships, and Corporation, as we know Sole Prop and Corp is an expensive entity for a starting fund. Can you go further on the LP vs LLC and if we didn’t have a choice how can we execute LP entity?

@@ChristinaQi What if the company is structured as a prop firm, where the investors are partners of the firm? Thanks!
@@pullet2001 Did you launch the prop firm?
Hey Christina! Thank you so much for doing this video! Our team is located in LA and looking to start a hedge fund so this is exactly the info we are looking for! Will you be kind enough to introduce us to the law firm you used? We talked to a couple so far but they told us different things. Please let me know! Thank you so much and we will check out your new startup as well. We might need that down the line! :)
Seriously useful video - and take this from someone who knows - who has been involved in launching 200 plus funds - very generous by Christina to do this - the quality of your legal partner is super super important.
I do really want to start a hedge fund, but not quite in this lifetime as I'm kinda busy doing stuff. Going to bookmark this video and come back to it In my future incarnations. Hope that's okay with you? I might have a different username or usernames as the centuries and millennia fly on by but my avatars or profile pics will be eerily similar. We'll definitely talk then okay? Thank you.
Valuable insights here. Thanks, Cristina.
Hi Christina, I loved your video. You said it took u 3 years to start the fund, I would like to know how much would be the cost for managing all these kind of activities and, have u took any funds from investors for managing your activities or u managed it with your own funds. Also, Can u please make short videos on every step that u have mentioned in the above video but in detail with explaining the best suitable options.
Please post more! Really useful information
