Extremely helpful and showed up with a full desire to help. Most likely will call again :) Thanks Carl!
I had a very nice chat with Carl and he was willing to discuss trading strategies, as well as ways of working as a trader with investment firms that may provide trading capital.
Carl is awesome. I presented my idea and he gave deliberate feedback on my concept and presentation style. I spoke to him about hedge fund strategy, emerging markets and venture capital, and how our technology could play a role in the financial industry space. He really helped me achieve clarity in terms of where my product might be most useful as well as concrete examples of how I should move forward. After our call, he continued to look into my startup and sent me a detailed follow-up message.
