Any beginner quant learners here?

Hello Everyone,

I'm a 28-year-old beginner in the quantitative strategies field.

I recently started working in FX Strategy, covering G10, LATAM, and EM currencies. While I'm enjoying the role, I know I'm only scratching the surface. My long-term goal is to develop a deep understanding of quantitative research, systematic trading, financial markets, and the mathematical and programming foundations behind them.

At the moment, I'm strengthening my Python and R skills while learning statistics, econometrics, and quantitative modeling. Over time, I'd like to build trading strategies, backtest ideas, and eventually contribute to meaningful quantitative research.

I'd love to connect with others who are on a similar journey whether you're just starting out or have more experience. It would be great to discuss research papers, exchange ideas, work on small projects, review code, stay accountable, and learn together.

If you're interested in quantitative strategies, systematic investing, algorithmic trading, or financial markets, feel free to leave a comment or send me a message. Building a small community of curious learners would make this journey far more enjoyable.

P.S. English isn't my first language, so I appreciate your understanding if there are any mistakes. Thank you!

Looking for a mentor in Quantitative Finance (FX/Systematic Trading)

Hi everyone,

​

I'm looking for a mentor with experience in quantitative finance, particularly in FX systematic trading or alpha research.

​

I recently moved into an FX Strategy team. It's been about six months, and while I've been able to manage production-grade models, I'm realizing that building intuition is a completely different challenge.

​

I can code, backtest, validate ideas, and understand the mathematics behind the models. But answering questions like why a strategy should work, when it is likely to fail, or how to develop new research ideas consistently is something I'm still trying to improve.

​

I'm looking for someone who can help me develop that research mindset and intuition through discussions, feedback, and sharing their experience. I'm more than happy to pay for their time if it's a good fit.

​

If you've worked with a mentor in quantitative finance:

​

Where did you find them?

​

What made them genuinely valuable?

​

Do you have any recommendations for individuals or platforms?

​

I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks!
