Im responding to the comment "do use llama3" not "breakdown your start"
> Very few people I've worked with have ever said they are doing cutting edge math - it's more like scientific research . The space of ideas is huge, and the ways to ruin yourself innumerable. It's more about people who have a scientific mindset who can make progress in a very high noise and adaptive environment.
This statement is largely true of any "edge research", as I watch the loss totals flow by on my 3rd monitor I can think of 30 different avenues of exploration (of which none are related to finance).
Trading is largely high school Math, on top of very complex code, infrastructure, and optimizations.
