In this episode of the Fintech Focus podcast, we talk about the high risk-high reward world of options trading with a startup named Gatsby. Just like the name of the eponymous book it gives a nod to, this Gatsby also sees the green light when it comes to opportunity, and that opportunity is teaching people about trading options while taking out things like options matrices and capital requirements.

Co-founder Jeff Myers chats with us about his company and why he chose to make options trading more slimmed down and approachable. Done through an app, Gatsby acts more like a social networking site that allows users to make their moves based on market reporting, leveraging knowledge and expertise to make the right decisions.
