A Conversation with Tom Hartman
Catching up with Tom Hartman — a tech-and‑marketing veteran turned algorithmic trader — as he breaks down how he went from building software for clients to building trading tools for himself. From blowing up early accounts to shipping 90+ production algos, Tom explains why volatility is his friend and how AI‑powered workflows can make you obsolete in the best possible way.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why Tom prioritizes volatility and clear trends over low‑volume chop—and how that shapes his strategies in bull and bear markets.
• How four‑year crypto cycles, September/October risk, and Santa Claus rallies inform his macro game plan.
• What prop firms are (and why they’ve exploded), plus Tom’s take on risk, position sizing, and the Taleb‑style barbell approach.
• How Tom uses AI to rebuild off‑the‑shelf tools for his own workflows—and why “replace yourself first” is a winning career strategy.
• Three trader lessons for non‑traders: risk management, cycles, and systems that override emotion.
