Are you happy?
How much happier are you now making this much than before?
How old are you (approximately if you don’t want to share your exact age)?
Do you see yourself doing this for the rest of your career?

Would learning how to trade now be viable for the future? Would ai cause possible problems for traders in a couple of years considering its rapid growth or is trading resilient to it?

If you want to pursue learning how to trade, don't let AI stop you. It's not stopping the best prop shops in the world, only helping them. Be patient with yourself. Nothing is a quick win in this world.

I do realize that learning the fundementals and actually finding an edge to be profitable would take time. Im just wondering if ai will make it impossible for a trader to compete against it in the future.

No, you wont be competing against AI trading. You'll be competing against other traders.

It depends what trading you want to do. If you're doing trading on your own, you need a particular strategy with long term edge. You won't be able to trade short term, the quant shops have that market.

Did you become a professional trader through the academic route or some other way?
 
Do you work solo
With a team
Or working for someone like in a company

Yeah there's internships. There's internships at all quant prop firms, hedge funds etc. You just need to pass the interview and get hired. And yes I work in a firm.

No I can not give internships to org users for no reason at all (nor do I have the power :p)

I'm not asking for you to give an internship (that would be silly)
But I am asking is, what are the requirements to even be considered?

Quantitative finance, statistics, ability to mog Hong Kong/Singapore 180IQ+ maths geeks at mental maths, systems thinking, programming fluency, awareness with raw computing processes (low level network protocol analysis, TCP/UDP, sockets, packets, dataflow... strategies that reduce latency, hardware, speed, low level programming languages and memory level computer mastery, game theory, poker strategy, all statistical arbitrage trading methods, a never ending drive to solve problems quicker, with less risk.. integrate -> adapt -> implement -> execute).

Basically, all the stuff you just can't fake.

Sort of. Depends more on your face now. Just have wavy/curly hair. You can't tiktok faggot max like how it worked in 2020-2021. You need to be fit, lean, with muscle and other good style/features. But having longer styled hair will always be an advantage over the contrary.

Is it true that you’re basically forced to chase losses because you have certain targets to hit?

Are there any methods that individuals can use that are off limits to you as a professional?

There are many trading methods I can't use at work. Longer term trading in all regards. So trendfollowing, global macro, relative value etc.. Anything discretionary.

And what do you mean by "forced to chase loses"? Definitely not ever trading strategies that don't have an edge, at work. Personally, I like to cut losses short and let winners run on. Not having a stoploss while trading discretionarily or systematically is silly; unless your strategy is something like trading uncorrelated markets at the same time, all without stoplosses, meaning the only thing that'd lead to catastrophy would be an event where all markets where you have open positions spike in correlation, which is highly unlikely; even then, you'd need other risk limits. A stop loss is just one (the main one).
