Learn Rust, C++, Haskell or OCaml. Or get a PhD in mathematics or physics. Other languages or domains might work, too.

- champagnepapi 4y agoRust mentioned twice here, maybe there’s something too it I don’t think it’s possible for me to go down a PHD path. HFT seems like a cool gig if you can get it
- Yoric 4y agoI've been approached several times for HFT or Quant jobs (yes, I know that they're different but I tend to sort them in the same bucket in my mind) because I code in Rust, C++ and OCaml. I didn't go into the domain because I'm not a big fan of money games. YMMV.
