In this trading tutorial, I go through the best and worst trading tik toks. I go through which trading advice, whether for options or stocks, is *actually good.*

I graduated from Stanford University with degrees in Math & Computer Science. I worked as a quantitative trader at Susquehanna International Group (SIG Trading) to start my career. I also interned at both Morgan Stanley & Cantor Fitzgerald, two investment banks. Investment banks typically have "sales & trading" programs.

I explain that trading candlestick patterns are largely useless. I have a tiktok showing off advice from a former Goldman Sachs trader that breaks this down. The goal of this video is to help you make money trading. Day trading can be a lucrative side hustle & also a way to make money online. However, trading education is CRITICAL. It's not "easy" to make money day trading.

Trading requires education on math & probability. I go through options & the important "greeks" to know in this trading tutorial. Options are derivatives (e.g. calls & puts).

I've done other videos on trading strategies. I've also done tutorials on the trading interview process & how to get a job at top banks & firms, such as Jane Street Capital & Citadel Securities. The purpose of this video is to go through day trading advice & filter through the "BS" and horrible takes. Most of the trading industry is trying to SELL you something, whether it's a course or a Discord.

In this video, I go through the best and worst sports betting advice on TikTok. We go through a variety of sports betting tutorials on TikTok. Some are from "big name" handicappers, such as Vegas Dave.

The goal of this sports betting tutorial is to help you make money. I want to cut through the "BS" advice given out on social media. In this video, there's definitely some good & bad sports betting advice.

First, we discuss win rate in sports betting. Getting a 90% win rate is impossible. Anybody claiming they can win this much, especially on parlays, is LYING. It's impossible to win 90% on point spreads or totals.

We also go through sports betting bankroll management. It's important to dedicate non-essential money to sports betting and grow it. Tracking your bets with a verified bet tracker like Pikkit Sports is valuable.

We go through the importance of line shopping and using multiple sportsbooks. I've used 50+ sportsbooks since I started gambling, including FanDuel & DraftKings. I also use DFS (fantasy sports) pick 'em apps like PrizePicks, Underdog Fantasy, and Betr Picks. More books = more opportunity.

I started sports betting as a side hustle while I was a quantitative trader at SIG (Susquehanna International Group). I spent a ton of time researching and studying the math behind sports betting.

I explain that it's important to be wary of people "selling picks." Remember that 97% of sports bettors lose long-term. People have a reason to LIE - they want to sell you something. Going 89-8 on parlay bets is impossible. However, I do explain profitable parlay betting strategy. It's possible to make money betting on parlays, you just need the right strategy.
