Author: Sean McLaughlin & Steve Strazza August 23, 2024 Duration: 1:11:28
Milton Marmanides does the hard work that traders don’t have the time to do. He sifts through the firehose of headlines, news releases, data points, and social media to cut through the noise and deliver only the market-moving information active traders need to make smarter decisions. And in his nearly 25 years in the business, first as a trader, and now as a market data provider, he’s seen a lot. From his seat, he’s seen how traders overreact to insignificant news items and how that can be detrimental to their performance. He’s also seen how getting timely and accurate information can be the difference between winning and losing. In this episode, Steve goes down memory lane as Milton was one of his early mentors in the business, and Milton shares some useful tips on how to parse the incredible barrage of information thrown at us 24/7 to get to the meat of what matters.
