We teach simple quant trading techniques that anyone can apply.
Hi! We’re James & Kris
We run our own trading operation, wear Hawaiin shirts, and guide the Robot Wealth community with the trading approach that, between us, we’ve used for over 30 years.
If you’re a solo trader, our free newsletter will help you fast-track your systematic trading portfolio and your quant trading skills.
Join the newsletter and we’ll also send you a 63-page case study on how Kris left an engineering career for professional trading and later built Robot Wealth.
Quant Trading Bootcamps
We run quant trading Bootcamps designed to help you become brilliant at the basics of quant trading.
In Bootcamp, you will learn a simple, high-probability, quantitative approach to trading that can work for you, the non-professional trader. You will focus on simple strategies based on economically-sensible, quantifiable market edges that a part-time trader can manage.

Engineers like me are … - The Hidden Gems of High Yield Bonds: Fallen Angels
What’s a Fallen Angel Bond? It’s a bond that’s been kicked out of investment-grade paradise. Once upon a time, it was rubbing shoulders with the blue-chip elite.
