Dan sits down with Steve Quirk, Chief Brokerage Officer at Robinhood Markets, for an in-depth conversation about retail investing, options trading, market behavior and the evolution of the modern trader. Steve shares insights from nearly four decades in the industry—from starting on the trading floor after the 1987 market crash to helping shape trading technology at TD Ameritrade and Robinhood. Dan and Steve discuss what successful investors do differently, why retail traders may be more sophisticated than they’re often given credit for and how options strategies like the wheel fit into a long-term wealth-building plan.
